Transparently sourced from 100% pasture-raised, grass-fed cattle, these dehydrated chews are highly digestible and humanely raised to support regenerative agriculture.

Product Description
  • Awesome daily chew for light and medium chewers!
  • Great interactive chew for tug-of-war, hide-n-seek, and fetch!
  • One of the best low-fat chews you can get!
  • Hair makes dogs more excited to chew/play!

Natural Biome: These ears come from cows that spend their entire life pastured. Although each ear 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 ear 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!

Made in the USA: We are proud to work with American family farms committed to raising animals in the best way possible. To learn more about Regenerative Agriculture, click here.

Chewing Benefits

Chewing is one of the best mental and physical activities a dog can participate in!

Teeth
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!

Chewing
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!

Sourcing and Availability

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.

Safety and Storage

Safety
All chewing should be supervised, especially when your dog is trying something for the first time. When giving chews that have dehydrated bone, you want to make sure the dog has the jaw strength and patience to chew/crush the bones before consuming. If a sharp edge or inappropriate chewing behavior is ever discovered, we recommend removing the chew for safety reasons.

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 pest that might show interest.

    Hairy Nummies!

    This is the second time I've ordered the hairy beef ear and wont be the last.

    My boy Asher gets excited when packages arrive from Farm Hounds. He KNOWS they are his.

    He really, really loves the hairy beef ear. He took his time and ate the entire thing.

    Came out the other end great the next day too. I like to think of it as cleaning out his system. LOL

    Took a while to get through!

    My Bernese mountain dog is a SUPER CHEWER and it is notoriously difficult to find something she doesn’t eat in 2 seconds. This kept her entertained far longer than most things I’ve tried

    My girl loved it!

    It can take a little bit of getting used to seeing your pup wating hairy body parts, but she enjoys it so much and the hair acts like floss. It's a win win!
