Best Natures Gnaws: Top Picks

Dogs with smaller mouths or lighter chewing habits often struggle with standard chews that are too thick or tough. A gentle, natural chew is important for teething puppies, seniors, or small breeds to keep them engaged and support dental health.

Nature Gnaws Extra Thin Bully Sticks are a thoughtful choice for these dogs, offering a single-ingredient, rawhide-free option that is easy to chew yet still long-lasting. They're especially well-suited for small dogs or those who need a softer, manageable treat.

• Extra thin design makes chewing easier for small mouths and gentle chewers
• Rawhide-free and grain-free for sensitive stomachs and allergy-prone pups
• Natural beef pizzle provides a savory flavor and supports dental hygiene

Compared to thicker bully sticks or manufactured dental chews, this option prioritizes ease of chewing and digestibility. The tradeoff is that larger or aggressive chewers may finish them quickly.

Finding a chew that is both natural and suitable for smaller or medium-sized dogs can be challenging, especially when many treats are too hard or large. Turkey tendons offer a lighter, crunchy texture that appeals to a wide range of dogs without being overwhelming.

Nature Gnaws USA Turkey Tendons are made and sourced in the USA, providing a rawhide-free, grain-free option that works well as a snack or training reward. They're especially good for light chewers, puppies, and medium dogs looking for a satisfying crunch.

• Made in the USA for quality assurance and ingredient transparency

Compared to single-size packs, this variety pack prioritizes flexibility and value. The tradeoff is that not every stick will be the perfect size for every dog, so supervision is recommended.

Dogs with varying chewing needs benefit from a selection of chews that offer both length and thickness options. This helps keep them engaged and allows owners to tailor treats to their dog's size and chewing style.

Nature Gnaws 11-12" Bully Sticks Mixed Thickness provides longer chews with a mix of thicknesses, making them suitable for medium and large dogs or those who enjoy a more substantial treat. The extra length also helps extend chewing time.

• Mixed thickness accommodates different chewing strengths
• Rawhide-free and natural for safer, healthier chewing

Compared to shorter or uniform chews, this pack prioritizes variety and duration. The main tradeoff is that the bag contains fewer sticks due to their larger size.

Some dogs get bored with standard straight chews, leading to less engagement and faster consumption. A unique shape can provide extra challenge and entertainment, keeping dogs occupied for longer.
