Tried and tested
An air dried beef trachea, this is a softer, hollow chew that most dogs work through fairly quickly, which makes it a great everyday option rather than a heavy duty one. Ryan, one of our IMDT qualified trainers, often recommends trachea for older dogs or those that prefer something they can chew more easily, and because it's naturally hollow you can pop a little something inside to make it last longer. At 12cm plus it suits most sizes, from medium breeds upward.
About this chew
Description
Beef trachea is made of cartilage, so it's naturally high in protein and low in fat, and a natural source of glucosamine and chondroitin, the compounds found in healthy joints. That makes it a popular natural choice for supporting joints and mobility as part of a balanced diet, particularly for older dogs. It's a softer, more digestible chew and a good alternative to rawhide, and the hollow shape can be stuffed with a little paste or a smaller treat for extra enrichment. A single ingredient chew, so a good option for dogs with sensitivities.
