This is the whole Achilles tendon with a section of heel bone still attached, which makes it denser, slower to get through, and gives that primal flavour burst dogs go wild for. It is the chew we reach for when a dog finishes an ordinary tendon in four minutes — a serious, satisfying challenge that lasts. It is a hard chew and not for every dog: puppies, older dogs with worn teeth and any dog with dental damage should have something softer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% raw, dehydrated beef Achilles tendon with partial heel bone — single ingredient, nothing else. Gently dehydrated at low temperature, without cooking, and naturally preserved with vinegar during dehydration. No grains, salts, sugars, colourants or artificial preservatives. Pieces vary naturally in size, colour and shape (roughly 100mm long by 30mm wide), because real treats come straight from nature. Available in packs of 4, 5 or 10.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChew strength: 4–5 of 5 (hard to very hard)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn our scale from 1 (very soft) to 5 (very hard), this sits at the top.
