Oh we love a natural chew here at Collar Club! There are a great range of natural chews out there - it just depends what you are looking for. Whether you are looking for high value, long lasting or low in fat, we have the chew recommendation for you.
Tripe Chews
Now I know, I know. tripe is smelly. Like, really smelly. But it doesn't always have to be! This wonderful protein comes in many shapes, sizes and forms. The most common type of tripe is beef, but you can also get it in lamb quite commonly too. It is generally very low fat, so great for dogs who need to lose some weight, or suffer from illnesses such as pancreatitis.
Green tripe is the unwashed (smellier) version that is commonly seen in dog treats, and is full of digestive enzymes, fatty acids omega 3 and 6, digestive and is a great source of protein.
Alternatively, you can feed washed tripe, which while not retaining all the benefits of raw or green tripe, is still a great low fat, non smelly option. Collar Club's honeycomb chews are washed and then dried to create the perfect crispy chew.
Yak Chews
Traditionally made and enjoyed for centuries by the people of the Himalayas, this 100% natural hard cheese is now available as a long lasting chew for dogs. They are quite hard, and therefore long lasting- although we wouldn't recommend them if your dog is a cruncher.
They are grain free, relatively low in fat and when you get to the end you can pop the remains in the microwave for just a few seconds (try 30 and keep checking it...) to create a tasty cheesy cinder toffee texture chew!
These can be found here in our wonderful natural goodies shop.
Rabbit Ears
Rabbit ears come in a variety of styles. You can get them dried, puffed or even furry! The furry ones are great as a natural dewormer, but all varieties are great for dogs who need a hypoallergenic diet.
Buffalo Skin
Now this is a chew for those with tough jaws! Sourced from naturally dark-skinned Buffalo these tasty strips create a long lasting and low-odour chew. We prefer JR's dark buffalo skin as like all their products, it is responsibly sourced.
We stock two different sizes on our website - those for diddly gnashers and larger pieces for bigger pooches!
Moon Bone
Moon Bones are a great tasting chew treat for dogs with numerous health benefits, and a great boredom breaker too! They are made from beef cartilage is a natural source of Glucosamine and Chondroitin. Despite their name, they contain no bone so there is no risk of it splintering, just super flexible and resistant connective tissue making it a perfect chew. Also, because of their firm texture, it promotes good oral health by scraping and cleaning the teeth reducing tartar and plaque build up.
You can find them on our website here!
