Joint-Support Powerhouse · High-Protein · Dental Scraping
This 12" Beef Trachea Chew is a larger, more substantial version of the classic trachea chew — offering dogs a highly nutritious, cartilage-rich, fully digestible chewing experience.
Trachea is naturally loaded with chondroitin and glucosamine, making it one of the most valuable chews for joint health and mobility, especially for senior dogs and breeds prone to hip or elbow issues. Its hollow tube shape encourages dogs to grip, crunch, and strip the chew in ways that support dental hygiene, jaw strength, and mental focus.
Dogs love the natural aroma and texture, while owners love the clean ingredients and powerful health benefits.
