Pig's Ears | A Classic Chew Your Dog Will Go Absolutely Nuts For
Pig's ears are exactly what they sound like, whole, dried ear flap sourced from NZ farmed pigs, turned into one of the most satisfying natural chews around.
Single ingredient, minimally processed, and packed with flavour, they're a firm favourite for a reason.
These are best suited to medium to large dogs. Big enough to really get stuck in and chew properly. Smaller breeds can enjoy them too, just with a bit of supervision.
Why dogs (and their humans) love them:
- Long-lasting entertainment | perfect for keeping busy minds occupied during quiet time, crate training, or when you just need five minutes of peace
- Supports dental health | the chewing action helps scrape away plaque and tartar naturally, no toothbrush required
- High in protein, low in additives | just pure pork, no nasties, no guesswork
Think of them as the ultimate wind down chew, brilliant after a big walk or a stimulating training session when your dog needs to decompress and settle.
Sourced from NZ farms and naturally dried, these are a treat you can feel good about giving.
Grab one or a few and watch your dog's tail go into overdrive.

2. Are pig's ears safe for dogs? Yes! They're a natural, single-ingredient chew with no additives or artificial preservatives, just dried pork, nothing else.
3. Where do your pig's ears come from? Our pig's ears are sourced from NZ-farmed pigs, so you know exactly what you're giving your dog.
4. How long will a pig's ear last? That depends on your dog's chewing style, an enthusiastic chewer might polish one off in 10–15 minutes, while a more relaxed chewer could stretch it out much longer.
5. Are pig's ears good for dental health? The chewing action helps scrape away plaque and tartar naturally, which supports healthier teeth and gums over time.
6. Are they high in fat? Pig's ears do contain a moderate amount of fat, so they're best given as an occasional treat rather than an everyday chew, especially for dogs prone to weight gain or pancreatitis.
7. Can pig's ears help with anxiety or hyperactivity? Absolutely, chewing is a naturally calming activity for dogs, making pig's ears a great option for helping anxious or overstimulated dogs settle down.
8. What's the enrichment value of a pig's ear? Chewing engages a dog's mind and body at the same time, providing a healthy outlet for natural instincts and helping to reduce boredom-related behaviours like barking or destructive chewing.
9. Can I give my dog a pig's ear every day? Due to their fat content, we'd recommend offering them a few times a week rather than daily — they're a treat, not a staple.
10. When's the best time to give my dog a pig's ear? They're brilliant after exercise or a training session when your dog needs to wind down — or any time you need them happily occupied for a little while!
