General Information on Rawhide

Rawhide is the inner layer of the hide usually from a cow. Many people give pieces of rawhide to their pets as toys (often to keep them busy) and to help their teeth. It is theorized that dogs like rawhide due to their natural instincts as wild dogs. Historically, wild dogs attacked and bit their prey, sank their teeth into the animals flesh and pulled away on the hide to obtain the meat.

Rawhide may serve as a simulation to this wild instinct. Many dogs, especially young dogs, have the natural instinct to chew. Rawhide may give dogs and puppies the ability to chew an acceptable “toy,” while benefiting from the mechanical action of chewing, which applies pressure on the gums and teeth and scrapes the teeth while chewing.

It is important for a dog not to be able to chew off and swallow large pieces as this may cause vomiting and/or diarrhea.

Pet Owner Said:

Our 3 month old chocolate lab loves these bones. It keeps her really occupied and focused. She has been totally uninterested in the harder white rawhide bone. Lasts a long time.
