Product Information
Full details
This guide is for adult dog owners seeking a healthy, natural reward for their pets. The Pure & Natural Pheasant Meat Strips offer a high-protein, hypoallergenic treat that can promote skin and coat health. A potential consideration is that these are single-ingredient treats, meaning they might not suit all dietary needs if other proteins are required. The product features 99% pheasant and 1% salmon oil, providing a unique, protein-rich, and long-lasting chew.

FAQs
Are these treats suitable for puppies?
These treats are formulated for adult dogs. Puppies have different nutritional needs and may not be able to digest them properly. It's best to use puppy-specific treats.
How many treats can I give my dog per day?
These are supplementary treats and should be given in moderation. A general guideline is to feed no more than 10% of your dog's daily caloric intake from treats. Adjust based on your dog's size, activity level, and overall diet.
What is the protein and fat content?
The Pure & Natural Pheasant Meat Strips contain approximately 54.3% protein and 20.4% fat.
Can dogs with allergies eat these?
Yes, these treats are considered hypoallergenic due to their single protein source (pheasant) and natural ingredients, making them suitable for many dogs with sensitive stomachs or common allergies.
How long do these treats typically last for a dog?
The duration varies significantly based on the dog's chewing intensity. They are designed to be a long-lasting chew, providing extended engagement for most dogs.
Are there any artificial additives in these treats?
No, these treats are made with natural ingredients and do not contain any artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, or fillers.
What is the shelf life of the product?
Please refer to the 'best before' date printed on the packaging for the exact shelf life. Proper storage in a cool, dry place will help maintain freshness.
Troubleshooting
Dog seems uninterested in the treat.
Ensure the dog is not overfed and is actually hungry. Try offering the treat after a period of activity or training. Some dogs may be picky; introduce gradually if necessary.
Treat appears too hard or crumbly.
This is normal for natural meat treats. If it's too hard for a smaller dog, you may break it into smaller pieces. If too crumbly, store in an airtight container to retain some moisture.
Digestive upset (e.g., loose stools).
While hypoallergenic, some dogs may react to new ingredients or high protein levels. Reduce the quantity given or discontinue use if upset persists. Consult your veterinarian if concerns remain.
Treat dries out too quickly.
Ensure the packaging is properly sealed after each use. Store in a cool, dry environment and consider using an airtight container for extended freshness.
