Healthy Alternatives to Rawhide: Why Buffalo Is Better


Healthy Alternatives to Rawhide: Why Buffalo Is Better

Rawhide chews have long been a go-to for dog owners, but they come with serious health concerns. Many vets now recommend steering clear of rawhide altogether—and switching to safer, more digestible alternatives.

Enter: water buffalo.


What’s Wrong with Rawhide?

Rawhide is made from the inner layer of cow skin, often treated with chemicals like bleach and glue to give it that clean, white look. Common risks include:

  • Choking hazards

  • Digestive blockages

  • Chemical contamination

  • Poor digestibility

These dangers have led many pet parents to search for safer, natural options.


Why Buffalo Is a Safer Alternative

1. Highly Digestible
Unlike rawhide, water buffalo treats are made from real meat and connective tissues that break down naturally in your dog’s stomach.

2. No Chemicals or Fillers
Our buffalo products are free from bleach, artificial flavors, and harsh preservatives.

3. Tasty and Nutritious
Buffalo is lean, protein-rich, and a great source of iron, B vitamins, and essential amino acids.

4. Durable for Chewing
Products like trachea, ears, and tendons offer the satisfying crunch dogs crave, without the risks associated with rawhide.


Final Thoughts

Ditch the rawhide—your dog deserves better.
