What do people think of cows hooves for a dog chew? specifically for a puppy.
I've read good and bad about them.

@LeesPostersAreInFrames

They just look like sticks of dried meat.

Crikey. I'm very much for use all the animal but I'm just about okay with pigs ears, I would 100% not cope with my dog running around with a bull's penis 😂

probably something to do with cleaning (live) horse's penises, smegma dirt and old flakes of green skin is not something I want a dog to get a taste for!

Pizzles are my dogs favourite thing ever - he LOVES them. Our local pet shop sells them for not huge amounts of money and he goes bonkers whenever he gets one!

silly question but does it matter if it's smooth or crunchy?!

Mine prefers it smooth but I don't suspect it matters much!

Give them a go op, not you the dog obviously, it really helps the chewing from teething, ours is 16 weeks old today Smile

This might up the stakes...

Beef tendons (paddy wack) and pizzles are my dogs favourites. Stinky though.

Our local poundstretcher had dog peanut butter for about £1.60, the exact same one is in Pets at Home for a pound more.

I wouldn't give one that contains any salt at all - dogs don't have the same tolerance to it as we do.

I use Meridian which is 100% peanuts.

The make is 'pics' it's delicious!

I'm just here too insert the standard warning that if you feed your dogs peanut butter, make sure it's not one that contains xylitol.

“Put an old trainer over the hoof, see if that freaks them out any less.”

Lol, dunno, she was a bit disturbed by chicken feet too...

I found it quite amusing tbh as she eats meat and I don’t, and she was the one bothered by random animal parts.

Trachea don’t last long IME, unless you’ve a really small dog I suppose, but mine just ate them in about 2 minutes.

Grin I bought a couple of hooves in the pet shop, and came across a stuffed trachaeaShock

They last quite well... and they don’t half freak out your neighbours when your dog wanders past with it, lol

Put an old trainer over the hoof, see if that freaks them out any less.
