Tried and tested
Moon bone is actually cartilage rather than hard bone, cut into large pieces, which makes it a satisfying chew that's much kinder on the teeth than a whole bone or an antler. Beth, one of our IMDT qualified trainers, recommends it as a good middle ground for dogs that want something substantial to get their teeth into without the hardness of a solid bone. It suits medium and larger breeds well, and it's a good pick for dogs whose owners worry about harder chews.
About this chew
Description
Moon bone is the cartilage disc from beef, so it's naturally high in protein and lower in fat, with a firm but yielding texture that dogs can properly work through. Cartilage is a natural source of collagen, and also of glucosamine and chondroitin, the compounds found in healthy joints, which is why it's a popular natural choice for supporting joints and mobility as part of a balanced diet. The chewing action also helps support clean teeth. A single ingredient chew, so a good option for dogs with sensitivities.
