Exploring the best natural chews for dogs

It is a truth universally acknowledged that every affectionate person having a dog as their pet must be on the lookout for the right chew to keep their pet happy. Finding the best chew for your dog involves considering several factors like your dog’s size, age, chewing habits, dietary needs, and any specific health concerns they may have. Although the market for pet products is constantly evolving, it’s always recommended to check for recent reviews and recommendations.

One of the most important factors that you must consider before buying a new chew for your dog is consulting their veterinarian, especially if your dog has specific health issues or dietary restrictions.

The market is full of several natural dog chew options, which are quite popular among pet owners. Here are some options: 

Bully sticks: These are single-ingredient dog chews, rich in high protein. They are made up of beef or the pizzle (penis) of a bull. They are highly digestible and offer a long-lasting chewing experience for the dogs.

Antlers: Deer and elks shed their antlers regularly. These antlers are used for making dog chews. They are a durable option for dogs who love to chew. These are also quite a rich source of essential minerals.

Himalayan dog chews: Made from yak or cow milk, these chews are hardened, lactose-free, and long-lasting.

Raw bones: Raw, meaty bones from beef or chicken can be a good option for dogs to chew on, but it’s essential to choose appropriate sizes and monitor your dog(s) while they chew.

Sweet potato chews: These are made from dehydrated sweet potatoes and provide a healthy and tasty chewing option for dogs.

Fish Skins: Dehydrated fish skins are a healthy, omega-3-rich treat that many dogs enjoy chewing.

 

Individual dogs may react differently to various chews, so it’s crucial to observe your dog’s reaction and adjust accordingly.
