Trachea is true cartilage, so each straw is light, airy and satisfyingly crunchy rather than hard — it crunches down cleanly instead of splintering like bone. Naturally rich in chondroitin, low in fat, and made from a protein most dogs have never eaten. The hollow centre also makes it easy to stuff for extra enrichment.
