FAQs
Are these treats suitable for puppies?
Yes, but they are generally best for puppies over 12 weeks old who have developed adult teeth and are capable of chewing tough items.
How many chicken feet should I give my dog?
Treats should comprise no more than 10% of your dog's daily caloric intake. Start with one to see how your dog handles it.
Do these contain any preservatives?
No, Paddock Farm Chicken Feet are 100% natural and do not contain artificial preservatives or additives.
Can these help with my dog's arthritis?
While they are not a medical treatment, they are a great source of natural chondroitin and collagen, which are essential nutrients for joint support.
Where are these sourced?
They are ethically sourced from manufacturers located in the UK and Europe.
Are they safe for dogs with allergies?
Because they are a single-protein treat, they are an excellent choice for dogs with sensitivities to other proteins, provided the dog does not have a specific chicken allergy.
Troubleshooting
My dog swallowed the treat without chewing
Hold the chicken foot in your hand while the dog chews it to encourage them to gnaw rather than gulp, or consider breaking it into smaller pieces if the dog is particularly small.
The treat is too hard for my small dog
You can soften the texture slightly by soaking the foot in a small amount of warm water for a few minutes before serving.
The product bag was left open
Ensure the bag is sealed tightly after every use to maintain the integrity of the treat; if they become overly dry or brittle, they are still safe but may splinter more easily.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These treats are shelf-stable and require no special preparation; simply open the bag and serve. To ensure longevity, keep the package in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. Because chicken feet are a natural product, they are compatible with most adult dog diets. If your dog is a 'gulper' (tends to swallow treats whole), it is vital to monitor them during consumption to prevent choking. Always ensure your dog has access to fresh water after enjoying their treat, as chewing can sometimes lead to increased thirst.
