What the label does not say

SmartBones give feeding guidance by size band rather than a single number for every dog — from one treat over five days for a toy or extra-small dog up to three a day for an extra-large one, each averaging 55.7kcal, and capped at 10% of daily calories overall. There is no ingredient breakdown finer than the percentages above, so exact vitamin and mineral content beyond the two additives listed is not published.

Why we chose it

Rawhide-free is the reason to stock this one — some dogs cannot manage a traditional rawhide chew, and this is a genuine alternative rather than a compromise, since chicken breast is the second ingredient rather than a flavour dusted on top. It suits puppies and older dogs precisely because of that softer texture.

— Matt, founder

Full description

A chew that is gentle on the gums matters more than it sounds for an older dog or a small breed, and it is the reason a rawhide-free option like this exists at all rather than being a novelty.

SmartBones Smartsticks are made without rawhide: the recipe is built on chicken breast (29%) and vegetables, with wheat flour, maize starch, pea powder (4.2%), sweet potato powder (1.3%), chicken liver (0.3%) and carrot powder (0.17%) making up the rest, alongside minerals and added vitamins. The finished stick has a softer texture than a rawhide chew, which is the point of the recipe rather than a side effect of it. Each stick measures 11.4 x 3.18 x 3.18cm, and the pack holds 10.
