Pawtential Collagen Chew – Medium, Salmon Flavour, 70g

Pawtential Collagen Chew – Medium, Salmon Flavour, 70g

Salmon gives this 70g stick a strong marine smell that most dogs find hard to walk past, and it carries the lowest chicken inclusion in the range at 12%, with 4% salmon and bell pepper powder alongside. Collagen and flaxseed oil are the reason it gets sold on skin and coat.

Structurally it is the same chew as the other three flavours: 64% beef gelatine, 68% protein, 3% fat, and 203 kcal a stick. If your dog is off red meat entirely, this one is not the escape route it looks like.

Performance & Benefits

• 4% salmon with bell pepper powder over a 64% beef gelatine base.
• Lowest chicken content in the Pawtential range at 12% chicken breast.
• 68% crude protein, 3% crude fat, 16% moisture.
• Flaxseed oil in the recipe alongside the collagen, both sold on skin and coat support.
• Strong fish aroma that pulls in dogs which ignore meat chews.
• Rosemary extract as the sole preservative, with vitamin E at 300mg/kg.

Suitable For

• Medium dogs of roughly 10–25kg.
• Dogs that respond better to fish than to meat.
• Owners moving away from rawhide but wanting a chew of similar duration.
• Not a fish-only chew — beef gelatine and chicken breast are both in it, so it is no use for a beef or poultry exclusion diet.
• A determined large-breed chewer will get through it quickly; the Pawtential Collagen Chew Large 110g is the better buy there.

Feeding

• Feed as a complementary treat beside a complete and balanced diet.
• 203 kcal per 70g stick at 291 kcal per 100g — allow for it in the daily ration.
• Pedigree Wholesale publish no feeding rate or frequency, so none is stated.
• Keep fresh water within reach while chewing.

Care & Caution

• Supervise while chewing and remove the final stub — a hard chew small enough to swallow is an obstruction risk.
• Salmon is only 4% of the recipe. The bulk is beef gelatine, with 12% chicken breast, so it is unsuitable for beef- or poultry-sensitive dogs.
• 291 kcal per 100g makes this a substantial addition to a medium dog's day, not a throwaway treat.
• Not for puppies too young to chew hard food safely.
