Can we ask about treats here?

If we can do y'all know any single ingredient or limited ingredient treats that Don't contain chicken that are decent? I'm out and need to buy some off chewy for training. I can't get treats from my normal place except for once a month. (He doesn't like the kibble enough for prolonged training and I think what I'm teaching will take awhile Don't need training advice just the treats)

Cats might have caused a false positive during an elimination trial. Should I try PPP SSS again?

My pup has been on Taste of the Wild Pacific stream ever since he started having issues with his food and me and the vet did an elimination trial. Chicken was suspected and proven to be it(all other proteins were fine) but when I put him on Purina Pro Plan sensitive skin and stomach he had another reaction just not as bad. We both got confused and tested grains which he had a reaction to rice which he was fine on before. Since it was basically impossible to find a chicken and rice free food we discussed it and removed grains entirely until he is an adult. I used that brand because the company said they'd replace a bad bag if I got it. (So far so good until the random reactions started happening recently)

I noticed recently there was more random reactions and kept tossing new treats thinking they were cross contaminated but yesterday he had a reaction when I've had him on plain kibble all week(he normally has supplements to help with some other issues he has but I ran out and they take awhile to ship). I finally looked around the house at the other animal foods and realized random cans of the cat and kitten food have chicken. They share water bowls. My oldest cat had been present for the last of the elimination trial. I think they caused a false positive because I feed the cat food flavors at random. Should I try it again after I remove all chicken food from the house or ask the vet first?
