9.3 out of 10

Top Pick

Nutritionally, this is a very straightforward, high-protein chew made from a single beef ingredient, which many dogs find highly palatable and satisfying to chew. It’s best used as an occasional treat for small to medium dogs, not as a meal replacement. Owners of dogs that need to watch their calories or that have beef allergies will need to be cautious with this product.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Made from a single animal ingredient, 100% grassfed beef pizzle, which keeps the recipe simple and easy to understand.
  • Very high in protein, which makes it a more nutritious chew than many plant-based or highly processed treats.
  • The firm, curly texture can help keep dogs occupied and satisfy their natural chewing instincts.
  • No added colors, flavors, grains, or other extras, which can be helpful for dogs that do best with simple treats.

Considerations

  • This is a treat, not a complete and balanced food, so it should make up only a small portion of the overall diet.
  • Each stick has around 62 calories, which can add up quickly for small dogs if given too often.
  • Not suitable for dogs with beef allergies or sensitivities, since the only ingredient is beef pizzle.
  • As with any firm chew, there is some risk of gulping or dental damage, so supervision while chewing is important.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Beef Pizzle
Beef pizzle is a single-ingredient, dried beef chew made from muscle/tendon tissue that serves as a long-lasting, high-protein treat for dogs and a source of collagen and natural animal protein; it helps satisfy chewing instincts and may provide some mechanical abrasion to help reduce tartar. Owners should supervise use because whole or large pieces can pose choking or gastrointestinal blockage risks, very hard chews can risk tooth fracture, and there are considerations around caloric density, potential bacterial contamination if not properly processed, and suitability for pets with allergies or sensitive digestion (generally not intended for cats).
