Hey Mighty Paw fam, Barbara here to share the most pawsome news with y'all:
We've been working hard behind the scenes on bringing you and your pups 4 new single-ingredient dog chews, and they're finally here.
You probably guessed it, but just to confirm your suspicion: Yes, they're all rawhide alternatives that complement our existing line of edible dog chews.
For anyone new to the fam who's not aware of the dangers of bleached rawhide, there are quite a few health risks associated with this type of dog chew. Most importantly, bleached rawhide is covered in chemical nasties, which is why you'll never find any of those in our Mighty Paw Naturals line!
So besides our drool-worthy Yak Cheese Dog Chews, Bully Sticks and Pig Ears, you can now spoil your furries with the following scrumptious doggy chews:
Since these are all beef dog chews, they're perfect for dogs with chicken, pork, lamb, fish or grain allergies.
Read on to learn what makes each of them special and why your pups will LOVE them!
4 Single-Ingredient Rawhide Alternatives for Dogs
Benefits of Single-Ingredient Dog Chews
Just as a quick recap, single-ingredient dog chews are free of grains, gluten, chemicals, preservatives, odor, and most importantly…guilt! That way, you can truly feel good about treating your pups.
Besides that, all of our dog chew rawhide alternatives promote oral health because chewing:
- Helps keep your dog’s teeth clean
- Improves their breath
- Massages their gums
- Exercises their jaws
Chewing in general is a natural dog behavior that provides entertainment. What's even better, it also battles boredom and anxiety related problem behaviors!
You know...excess barking, nervous pacing and destroying furniture or eating your socks!
