Natural Dog Treats with Fur | High-Fibre Chews for Digestive Health
We stock the widest range of treats with fur available in Australia. From ears and tails to feet, twists, and skin, these natural treats are loved by dogs and offer unique and essential health benefits you won't find in other snacks.
Functional Health Benefits of Furry Chews
Retaining the fur provides natural fibre that acts as a digestive cleanser. These chews support health in two key ways:
- Digestive Cleansing: The fur helps sweep the digestive tract, which supports the removal of residual matter. This can assist in maintaining a healthy gut microbiome.
- Anal Gland Support: The indigestible fibre contributes to firmer stools, helping to naturally express the anal glands—something many dogs struggle with and sometimes require veterinary intervention for.
- Natural Toothbrush Action: The fibrous texture acts as a natural scrubber, assisting with the removal of plaque and tartar from the teeth.
Digestive, Immune & Nutritional Support
Feeding furry treats once or twice a week is a great addition to your dog's diet. A well-functioning gut promotes better immune health, improved nutrient absorption, and contributes to overall vitality.
Our Extensive Range
While furry treats may not appeal to humans, dogs absolutely love them! We offer a variety of high-quality, natural furry chews including beef hide scrolls, rabbit ears, and goat tails. These are a great way to combine fun, long-lasting chewing with essential functional health benefits.
Common Questions: Treats with Fur
Are treats with fur safe for my dog?
Yes, treats with fur are a natural and functional choice. The fur is primarily keratin, a source of insoluble fibre. This fibre does not break down; instead, it passes through the digestive system, providing a gentle internal sweep of the digestive tract.
How does the fur support the digestive system?
The fur acts as a natural source of insoluble fibre (roughage), which is vital for several digestive functions. It helps to firm up stools and assists in the movement of debris through the colon. This increased stool consistency helps support the natural function of the anal glands through appropriate physical pressure.
My dog has sensitivities. Are treats with fur a good choice?
Fur-on treats are excellent for sensitive dogs, especially when selecting a novel protein like Rabbit, Goat, or Kangaroo. These proteins are less likely to cause irritation and are highly effective at supporting connective tissue and gut health.
How often should I feed my dog treats with fur?
While the benefits of insoluble fibre and manganese are significant, furry treats should be fed in moderation. We recommend one or two furry chews per week to support digestive transit and maintain the structural integrity of the gut microbiome.
Do these chews help with dental hygiene?
Yes. The dense, fibrous texture of the fur combined with tough cartilage provides a physical scrubbing action. This natural resistance helps to clean the tooth surface and supports the structural integrity of the gums through extended chewing enrichment.
