Medium Chicken Wrapped Beef Cheek Chew Treat

Verified Jul 26, 2026

Dog · Treat Medium Large

This is a high-protein, collagen-rich chew treat made from beef collagen wrapped with chicken, designed for medium and large dogs as an occasional chew. It focuses on providing a long-lasting chew from beef cheek with added chicken for palatability, not as a complete diet. The simple ingredient list makes it a relatively straightforward option for dogs who enjoy natural-style chews.

8.0 out of 10

Strong Choice

Nutritionally, this is a very high-protein, collagen-based chew meant for supplemental feeding, not a full meal. It can work well as an occasional long-lasting treat for medium and large dogs who tolerate beef and chicken. Because it’s calorie-dense and made from animal tissues that some dogs may find rich, it’s best used in moderation and monitored, especially for dogs with sensitive stomachs or weight concerns.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Very high protein content (over 80% as-fed), primarily from animal sources (beef collagen and chicken).
  • Simple, short ingredient list (beef collagen, chicken, vegetable glycerin) with no artificial colors or complex additives.
  • Collagen-based chew can provide a firm, long-lasting texture that many dogs enjoy and may help satisfy their natural chewing needs.
  • Calorie information is provided (about 100 kcal per serving), which helps you factor this treat into your dog’s daily intake.

Considerations

  • Contains both beef and chicken, which are common food allergens, so it’s not a good choice for dogs with known sensitivities to either protein.
  • At about 100 calories per chew, it can contribute significantly to daily calories, especially for smaller or less active dogs, so portions of regular food may need to be adjusted to prevent weight gain.
  • As with any firm chew, there is some risk of dental fracture or choking, particularly in very aggressive chewers; close supervision and choosing the right size for your dog are important.
  • This is intended only for intermittent or supplemental feeding, so it should not replace a complete and balanced dog food.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Beef Collagen
Beef collagen, derived from bovine connective tissues, is used in pet foods and treats as a source of collagen peptides to improve texture and potentially support skin, coat and joint connective tissue in dogs and cats. It supplies amino acids such as glycine and proline but is not a complete protein for growth, may cause reactions in animals with beef sensitivities, and any joint- or skin-support claims should be viewed as supportive rather than curative and discussed with your veterinarian.
02
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

03
Vegetable Glycerin
Vegetable glycerin is a plant-derived humectant and sweet-tasting solvent commonly used in pet foods and treats to retain moisture, improve texture, dissolve flavorings or vitamins, and enhance palatability. It provides usable calories, is generally regarded as safe for dogs and cats in typical amounts, but excessive intake can cause digestive upset and may be a consideration for diabetic pets or those needing calorie-restricted diets.
