Lamb ears

Lamb ears are natural, chewy treats made from the ears of lambs. They are commonly used as a healthy snack for dogs. Lamb ears are similar to other animal-based chews, such as pig or cow ears, and are a popular choice for pet owners seeking a more natural and digestible alternative to processed treats.

Why we feed?

Lamb ears provide a satisfying chew that can help keep dogs occupied while satisfying their natural chewing instincts. For dogs with food allergies or sensitivities, lamb ears offer a more digestible, hypoallergenic alternative to other animal-based chews. Chewing on lamb ears helps clean a dog's teeth and can reduce plaque buildup.

How to feed?

Lamb ears can be given for a light chewing session or included as your dog’s 80% muscle meat in their raw diet.

Benefits of lamb ears?

Lamb ears are minimally processed, typically dried or air-dried, to create a chewy texture. They do not contain artificial additives, preservatives, or colors. Lamb ears are highly digestible, making them a good option for dogs with sensitive stomachs or food intolerances, especially for more common proteins like beef or chicken. Since lamb is often considered a novel protein, lamb ears can be suitable for dogs with allergies or sensitivities to more common proteins. They are frequently used in limited-ingredient diets and hypoallergenic feeding plans. Lamb ears are generally lower in fat than other animal-based treats like pig ears, making them a healthier option for dogs prone to weight gain or with conditions requiring a low-fat diet. Chewing on lamb ears helps promote dental health by scraping away plaque and tartar buildup, supporting healthy teeth and gums.
