Pets Elite Pig Ear Shells Pack of 10 - Pig Ear Cartilage Dog Chew

About this item

Non-Returnable. The Hidden Gem Inside Every Pig Ear: Pets Elite Pig Shells are the dried inner cartilage shell of a pig's ear - real, honest, single-ingredient chews prepared the Pets Elite way into a firm, curved, naturally satisfying shape. This is the Pack of 10, roughly 380g, a proper everyday supply for daily sessions, multi-dog households, or owners who want a clean, cartilage-rich chew always on hand. It's the Pets Elite Ancestral Lifestyle in cartilage form, built on BARF (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) principles: real ingredients, minimal processing, honest preparation. Why Cartilage Works So Well: Real pig ear cartilage is naturally rich in glucosamine, chondroitin and cartilage proteins, contributing to joint support and comfortable movement - genuine functional nutrition in a chew gentle enough for a wider range of dogs than many harder chews. Built for Regular, Everyday Chewing: Rated 2-3/5 Soft to Medium Hard on our Chewyness Scale, this is a softer, more approachable chew than most cartilage-based options - suited to senior dogs, lighter chewers and daily use, while still helping maintain healthy teeth and gums through natural chewing action. Our Chewyness Scale: 1 = Very Soft | 2 = Soft | 3 = Medium Hard | 4 = Hard | 5 = Very Hard A Note on Aroma: The rich natural aroma is part of the appeal - that's real food, honestly prepared, and completely normal. Key Benefits: Single-Ingredient Focus, Naturally Preserved: Real pig ear cartilage with vinegar, used the Pets Elite way for natural shelf stability Naturally Rich in Glucosamine & Chondroitin: Contributes to everyday joint support Gentle, Approachable Texture: Softer than many cartilage chews, suited to a wider range of dogs Dental Support Built In: Helps maintain healthy teeth and gums through natural chewing action Great for Daily Use: Pack of 10, a proper everyday supply Honestly Prepared: No grains, sugars, salts, colourants or artificial additives Ingredients: Pork, Vinegar (used in preparation for natural shelf stability). Freshness Note: This is a real meat product with no artificial preservatives, so once opened, always reseal the packet tightly between feeds. Extended exposure to air will dry the product out and affect freshness, and keeping it sealed also stops insects from getting to it - resealing after every use is the simplest way to keep it fresh and safe. A Note on Natural Variation: Each piece is the natural inner cartilaginous shell of a pig's ear. Size, shape, colour and texture will vary naturally piece to piece - the honest reality of a real, naturally prepared product. Quality never varies, character does.
