Long-Lasting Natural Beef Hide Rolls (Hairy)
Long-Lasting Natural Beef Hide Rolls (Hairy)
*Price listed is per single item and hair color can vary based on which cow it comes from.
Transparently sourced from 100% pasture-raised, grass-fed cattle, these naturally dried hides are the complete hide. They are NOT stripped, processed with toxic chemicals, or dyed like many industrially made rawhide.
- 100% Beef
- Single Origin
- Zero Fillers
The BIG Difference: Industrial rawhide, with the use of toxic chemicals, only uses a portion of the hide after the top portion has been removed for tanning. This allows dogs to chew and consume industrial rawhide way quickly, opening the door to blockages and choking concerns.
Long-lasting: Our Beef Hide Rolls are long-lasting and will provide healthy chewing for even the most aggressive chewers! Chewing is one of the best mental and physical activities a dog can participate in!
Hide Length & Thickness: The inches listed with each size is an approximate length as some hides will shrink slightly during the drying process. The thickness of each hide will change depending on where the roll was cut from on the hide. We do our best to always send hides that are as thick as possible, but variations when dealing with organic products can be expected.
Natural Biome: These hides come from cows that spend their entire life pastured. Although each hide is washed before dehydration, seeing elements of grass, dirt, and other natural debris is common. Products with hair also retain some of their natural animal scent (which dogs love), so you can expect a cow hide to smell somewhat like a cow!
Can Dogs Eat Hair? Yes! Hair is actually very beneficial to the digestive tract (think of it like a pipe cleaner). It also delivers good levels of fiber and manganese! As humans, it throws us off, but your pup is a carnivore; it doesn't slow them down, it actually excites them! A dog's nose doesn't miss much, and having hair left on a chew gives them more smells to work with! Additionally, it feeds their canine drives by allowing them to "de-fluff" and pick at the chew before gnawing it down!

Sourcing
Everything we make is connected to family farms. When you purchase from Farm Hounds, you will always know the exact farm we worked with to make that product.
We maintain the connection to the farm through the entire process by placing the farm name on every product.
Availability
We choose to source from working farms which means animals may not mature on our timetable. At times, this means we do not have access to the products we want or need. However, we continue to identify small, true working farms that we can partner with to help minimize any shortages.
Storage
Keep in a cool/dry place. Our dehydrated products are free of preservatives and pesticides, and although it is very uncommon, bugs and mold (from added moisture) are your two culprits for causing trouble.
For chews and hides, especially after a chewing session, avoid sealing them in plastic or containers that can trap moisture. Allow the chew to air out and store in a cool/dry place.
For longer storage, the freezer can be a great way to keep our products fresh, and away from bugs and pests that might show interest.
Safety
All chewing should be supervised, especially when your dog is trying something for the first time. If a sharp edge or inappropriate chewing behavior is ever discovered, we recommend removing the chew for safety reasons.
Motivate
Although we see most dogs take to the hides right away, sometimes they just don’t know how to get started.
There are a couple things you can do to try and get them going, and once they start, they typically go back to it without any assistance.
Option 1: A Little Something
Put a little coconut oil or peanut butter on an edge. This will get them licking, which should turn into heavy duty chewing!
Option 2: Hide Some Treats
Take some treats (like our beef organ!) and place 1-2 pieces inside the roll. This gives the pup a “target” zone and they will instinctively know where to start working to try and access the treat. Once started, they should just end up enjoying the chewing!
Option 3: Soak An Edge
Soak one side in about 1/4in of water. This will soften up an edge, making it a more appealing chew, and gives the dog an easier starting point.
Option 4: Play
Use the hide as a toy with games like fetch, keep-away, and tug-of-war. The goal is to get their mouth making contact with the hide as much as possible, which will turn into chewing as they get familiar with the hide.
Chewing is one of the best mental and physical activities a dog can participate in!

Dental Health
Want to save your dog from dental disease, horrible breath, and teeth cleaning bills? Then give your dog a chew for around 10 minutes every day! Similar to humans, canine dental issues can impact the overall health of your pet. Not only is gnawing and chewing a great mental and physical exercise, but it cleans teeth and strengthens gums. Daily chewing is just like brushing teeth for humans!

Recommendations
Limit chewing to 15-20 minutes per session. Most dogs feel fully satisfied (endorphins get released in the brain) after short sessions of back-of-the-jaw gnawing. After chewing, store the hide out of sight and give again when you need the pup to have some down time.

We have tried the hog hide roll, regular beef hide roll and chip so we decided to try the hairy beef roll! We have large breed dogs between 83 and 100lbs that all are super chewers. A 6 inch roll will last them about three to four 30-45 minute chewing sessions. We love the hair as we learned it’s helpful for animals.

My dog chews through everything at lightning speed…. These last longer than any other bones without me worrying about her teeth breaking or any scary splinters choking her like on some plastic hard bone. I feel great letting her munch them whenever she wants knowing there is nothing but hide and fur in them.

These lasted multiple days! I was so surprised at how long these last. I let them take them outside for an hour and they barely made a dent. For an average chewer, this would take forever to finish. I think my dogs finished in about 4-5 sessions of 30-60 minutes. They LOVED them and I even got a nap out of it.
