Pawtential Collagen Chew – Large, Salmon Flavour, 110g

Pawtential Collagen Chew – Large, Salmon Flavour, 110g

The large salmon stick is 110g of collagen chew with 4% salmon and bell pepper powder over a 64% beef gelatine body. It smells strongly of fish, which is the whole argument for it — dogs that ignore a beef chew rarely ignore this one.

Large is the size for a dog that demolishes a 70g stick in a few minutes. It comes at 320 kcal, so it is a considered treat rather than a casual one, and the collagen and flaxseed oil are what Pedigree Wholesale lean on for the skin and coat claims.

Performance & Benefits

• 110g stick, the longest-lasting size Pawtential produce.
• 4% salmon with bell pepper powder; 12% chicken breast, the lowest poultry inclusion in the range.
• 68% crude protein, 3% crude fat, 2% crude fibre.
• Collagen plus flaxseed oil, the pairing behind the skin, coat and joint claims.
• More digestible than rawhide — the gelatine base breaks down rather than swelling.
• Vitamin E 300mg/kg with rosemary extract as preservative.

Suitable For

• Large and powerful chewers that finish smaller sticks too quickly.
• Dogs that prefer fish to meat.
• Long settles — crate time, car journeys, evenings in.
• Not suitable for a dog on a fish-only or beef-free diet; beef gelatine is the main ingredient at 64%.
• Too large and too calorific for a toy breed — the Pawtential Collagen Chews XS 6-stick pack is the right format there.

Feeding

• Complementary treat. It does not replace any part of a complete and balanced diet.
• 320 kcal per 110g stick at 291 kcal per 100g; reduce the day's food to match.
• No daily feeding rate is published by Pedigree Wholesale, so none is stated here.
• Provide fresh drinking water alongside.

Care & Caution

• One stick carries 320 kcal — enough to unbalance a small or overweight dog's week if fed often.
• The salmon is 4%. Beef gelatine and chicken breast make up most of the chew, so it is no good as an elimination-diet treat.
• Supervise the whole chew and remove the last swallowable piece to avoid choking or obstruction.
• Sized for large dogs only; a smaller dog can splinter off a lump it cannot swallow safely.
