CLEANS TEETH, MENTAL and PHYSICAL EXERCISE

Welcome to a REAL chew (with hair)!

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 rawhides.

*Price listed is per single item and hair color can vary based on which cow it comes from

  • 100% Beef
  • Single Origin

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 too quickly, opening the door to blockages and choking concerns.

Mentally stimulating: Our Beef Hide Chips are less durable than the Beef Hide Rolls, but they do require more mental energy to chew due to their odd shape! These long-lasting chews provide a healthy chewing option for even the most aggressive of chewers!

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!

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.

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.

  • 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.

    "Chip Harry"

    Georgie loves this chip. I know that the hair provides essential nutrients but the mess on her paws, our floors and the lingering smell makes us prefer the non-hairy chips and bones.

    OBSESSED

    Ordered the hair on beef hide chips for my three dogs and they LOVE them. Love how long it took for them to get through them and the mental stimulation from the square shape. Will definitely be ordering more!!

    Odd shape…

    …that she figured out how to devour in about 45 min. My girl chews thru the super heavy Nylon chew toys that sound like a brick when you throw them, so I really shouldn’t have expected her to be too puzzled by this one. She loves the hide rolls with hair. I have to take it away or she will eat the entire thing. It’s kinda comical watching her devour all of her favorites treats. She LOVES everything from this company and I’m going to have to get another job to be able to afford it all bc of course I want her to “try” everything. We are almost there. I wouldn’t change it for anything. Fantastic company!

    Long Lasting Hairy Chew

    Our biggest dog Loki is a 100lb Great Pyrenees and a super chewer. He can destroy most chews fast. We love the hide chips because of the shape that makes them have to work a lot harder, but also we were so excited they had a hairy version. This was how much the large had left after an hour of chewing. They seem to take a lot longer to chew the chips vs the rolls.

    The pups loved them

    My 4 Weims loved the hairy beef hide chips. One finished hers off the first go round (approximately in a 1/2 hr) so I put the remaining three in a zip lock bag in the freezer. I pulled them out and used heavy duty scissors too ok cut one of the chips in half and gave her 1/2 the other 1/2 yo the slowest chewer.
