Pets Elite Natural Hide Sausage Roll
Why we stock it
Two textures in one chew — a firm pork rind outer and a softer sausage core — which is why dogs who lose interest in a plain chew tend to stay with this one. The sausage is made droëwors-style but with no salt and no spice, which is the part that matters: human droëwors is far too salty for a dog. It contains both beef and pork, so it is out for any dog avoiding either.
What it is
A length of pork rind rolled and wrapped around a filling of Pets Elite dried sausage. About 25mm across in all three sizes; length is what changes — 75mm, 150mm or 300mm. Rates 3 to 4 on the Pets Elite chewyness scale. Sold by unit, and natural size variation applies.
Ingredients
Beef, pork, vinegar.
Official ingredient line supplied by Pets Elite. The sausage is prepared in the style of South African droëwors but is entirely salt-free and spice-free.
Feeding and use
Give under supervision, with fresh water alongside. Take it away once it is small enough to swallow whole. Chews and treats should stay under about 10% of what your dog eats in a day.
