Homemade dog chews provide the ideal way to satisfy a dog’s chewing urges while reducing exposure to potentially hazardous ingredients found in store-bought snacks. Plus, you have full control of what ingredients go into them!
Be mindful to closely supervise your dog when giving any bone or treat to him to chew, as they may gulp down large pieces that could result in choking injuries.

Beef Bones
Grass-fed beef bones are an invaluable source of protein, minerals, healthy fats, collagen, gelatin and glycine (Precision Nutrition). Bones can also be used to create an abundance of nutrients-packed bone broth which can then be added into soups and stews for additional nutritional boost.
This recipe only needs two ingredients and takes minutes to prepare, making it gentle on your pet’s teeth while helping prevent plaque.
Add these delicious treats to your dog’s diet to satisfy his sweet tooth. Use a cookie cutter to cut the dough into bone-shaped chews. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet, allow to cool, then refrigerate for maximum freshness! These treats will become hard and crunchy as they cool. For long term storage options place in the refrigerator.
Chicken Bones
Homemade chews are not only more cost-effective than commercial offerings, but you also know exactly what is being put in their mouths. Our recipes are safe for all dogs and easy to make; give your furry pal something delicious to chew without risking their safety or yours!
Cooked chicken bones may cause injury to your pet’s digestive tract if consumed, making them unhealthy choices for them to consume. Instead, raw chicken feet provide an effective alternative, rich in glucosamine to reduce arthritis pain, while beef tracheas are an excellent source of calcium that are readily available from local butchers or co-ops – these should either be dehydrated in a food dehydrator for three hours, or cooked in an oven before feeding to your pup.
Lamb Bones
Grass-fed lamb bones contain essential collagen, minerals and bone marrow for supporting joint, lung, heart and immune health. Roasting or simmering them into an aromatic lamb broth will result in rich nutritional benefit for you and your loved ones.
Chewing can be an excellent natural way for dogs to maintain healthy teeth and gums, naturally eliminating plaque build-up while decreasing gum disease risk. Chewing also offers physical and mental stimulation which helps relieve boredom or stress in canines.
Create delicious treats your dogs will adore easily with just two ingredients and let your pup have at it! Simply combine all three elements and let him or her chew away! Just watch to ensure no choking or accidental bits fall off that could cause injury! For added flavor and texture, consider rolling these bites in unsweetened shredded coconut to add an extra splash of texture and flavor!
Fish Bones
There are a wide variety of animal-derived chews on the market for your canine companion. These may include beef trachea, backstrap and fish skin chews high in omega three fatty acids – be sure to discuss these options with your veterinarian in order to ensure they are suitable for your pet’s safety.
Another popular chew is chhurpi, also known as Himalayan cheese chews. Made of hard blocks made from dried cheese made from yak’s milk, they make long-term treats for your dog if given to him or her as treats – however be wary if your pup has an extreme power chewer tendencies – because these treats could become dangerously blocked if given to such individuals! For best results monitor them closely to avoid such incidents happening; and remove it before it breaks apart too easily or have them use bully stick holders for holding treats when given as treats to power chewers!
Organs
Organs such as the heart, lungs, and stomach are composed of specialized cells that perform specific functions for the body. Organs can usually be found in more complex creatures. Organs differ from tissue in that their functions are separate – heart and lungs for instance being pumps which perform one specific purpose each. Organ systems (also called biological or body systems) consist of all organs performing similar functions that perform within them to form an organism system; when considered collectively they’re often referred to by ancient Roman pagan priests examining animal bodies to divine future events! In humans this term was applied when considering organ systems (viscera in this sense).
