Overview
The Hairy Cow Ear Chew is a natural, hair-on, light-to-moderate chew with a strong, irresistible aroma that immediately triggers a dog’s prey-driven interest. The hair provides natural fiber that supports gut health, while the cartilage offers a gentle crunch that’s easier on teeth than hide or bone.
This is a Gnaw & Order™ light-to-moderate chew, perfect for dogs needing enrichment without heavy jaw work. It’s especially beneficial for scent-driven dogs, nervous dogs who need help engaging, or any dog that enjoys hair-on, primal chew textures.
