Lamb femur

A lamb femur is a long, weight-bearing bone from a lamb's leg that dogs often use as a natural chew. These bones are typically larger and harder than other types, providing a durable and engaging chew.

Why we feed?

Lamb femur bones are a natural, minimally processed treat. They may be raw or air-dried, providing a healthy alternative to processed dog chews as a recreational rather than an edible bone. The femur is a dense, strong bone that can withstand prolonged chewing, making it ideal for medium to large dogs that enjoy chewing for extended periods. Lamb femur bones are rich in nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, and marrow, which contribute to a dog's overall health. The marrow inside the bone is a nutritious, fatty substance that dogs find highly palatable. Chewing on a lamb femur bone helps reduce plaque and tartar buildup on a dog's teeth. The gnawing action is a natural toothbrush, promoting healthy gums and teeth.

Why we feed

How to feed?

Lamb femurs are great as recreational chews. Chewing on a lamb femur provides mental stimulation and can help reduce boredom and destructive chewing behaviors.

Additional info?

Always supervise your dog when it chews on bones to prevent choking or swallowing large pieces. Remove the bone once the outer connective tissue and inner bone marrow are consumed.
