Fieldcrest Farms Nothin' to Hide Twist Stix are rawhide-free collagen sticks for small dogs. Each straight, slim 5 inch stick is 85% collagen from beef gelatin with real beef for a beef flavor dogs recognize. Because the base is collagen rather than rawhide, the chew softens as your dog works on it and digests the way food does, which makes it an easy choice for dogs with a sensitive stomach and a safer rawhide alternative for owners who worry about digestibility. Who they are for: dogs under 15 lbs with a moderate chewing style, puppies and adults alike. Yorkies, Chihuahuas, Shih Tzus, Miniature Dachshunds, Maltipoos, Yorkipoos and other toy and small breed dogs up to 15 lbs are the right fit. Puppies can have them as long as the stick is bigger than the puppy's mouth; when in doubt, choose a bigger chew. At about 25 calories each, one stick is a low calorie everyday treat, not a meal. A heavy chewer or a larger dog should move up to Nothin' to Hide Rolls or Knotted Bones. What's in the bag: Beef gelatin (source of collagen), beef, tapioca, vegetable glycerin, sorbic acid (preservative). Chicken-free dog treats: no chicken and no pork. 75% protein, 1% fat, gluten free, no wheat, corn or soy. Resealable 11.47 oz bag. Dental chew benefit: as your dog gnaws, the firm textured surface scrapes against teeth and helps loosen plaque and tartar while satisfying the natural urge to chew, so shoes and furniture get a break. How to feed: choose a chew larger than your dog's mouth, give one stick at a time as a treat, supervise while chewing, discard any small pieces or sharp edges, and keep fresh water available. Intended for intermittent or supplemental feeding only. Store in a cool, dry place and reseal the bag. Fieldcrest Farms is family owned and operated. Nothin' to Hide chews are made to give small dogs the chewing they crave without rawhide.
