Goat chews: the mild single-protein alternative

Goat is considered a relatively rare protein source and is therefore popular with dogs with food intolerances. From Goat Ears with and without fur, Goat Nose with and without fur, Goat Head Skin and Goat Feet with and without fur, to Goat Tripe, Goat Tendons and Goat Gullet, we offer 16 different goat chews.

Goat Skin as a roll or plait, as well as Goat Lung, flat or in the classic shape, are also part of the range. All snacks are air-dried, single-source and free from additives. This gives your dog a mild, well-tolerated chewing alternative that is also suitable for an ongoing elimination diet.

From tender Goat Ears for short chewing moments to firmer Goat Tendons and Goat Feet for persistent chewers, the selection is broad enough for every canine character. Goat Ears with fur provide extra natural fibre, while the version without fur is slightly milder in terms of chewing behaviour.

Goat Tripe and Goat Gullet bring extra variety to the daily chewing routine with their natural, irregular consistency and are well suited to dogs that are already well acquainted with classic, smooth chews. Goat Skin in roll or plait form provides a slightly firmer texture and a longer chewing time.

As a novel protein, goat is used far less often in everyday food than beef or chicken, which is why it can be readily incorporated into an elimination diet in consultation with our team.

When first introducing goat chews, it is advisable to start with the milder Goat Ears or Goat Nose before offering firmer varieties such as Goat Tendons or Goat Feet. Particularly during an ongoing elimination diet, it makes sense to stick consistently with goat as the sole animal ingredient and to pay attention to the same protein source when it comes to treats too. As our range is very broad with 16 varieties, it is possible to offer variety over weeks and months without having to change the protein source. This means goat is suitable not only for the acute diagnostic phase but also as a long-term, mild alternative for dogs that react sensitively to many other types of meat.

As all goat chews are air-dried, they can be stored easily at room temperature in a dry, dark place and stay crunchy for a long time. A well-sealed bag or tin additionally keeps odour under control and preserves freshness.

As with all chews, the same applies: they supplement complete food but do not replace it, so factor the amount into the daily ration. With 16 different shapes, plenty of variety can be offered within the goat family without ever having to change the protein source, practical for multi-dog households with different chewing preferences.
