MILKY CHEW CHICKEN BONE STYLE
In Stock
The Dogaholic Milky Chew Chicken Bone Style Dog Treats by Dogaholic are a premium-quality, rawhide-free chew treat crafted in the iconic bone shape to satisfy your canine companion's natural urge to chew. Formulated to address the dual challenge of keeping dogs mentally engaged and orally healthy, these treats combine the irresistible palatability of real chicken and milk flavour with a soft, completely digestible texture that is gentle on developing and adult teeth alike. Each piece is made from a curated selection of the finest ingredients, setting them firmly apart from conventional rawhide chews that pose digestive risks and choking hazards. Designed for dogs of all breeds and sizes above 2 months of age, these bone-shaped chews double as a rewarding training tool and a wholesome everyday snack. Animeal is proud to offer the Dogaholic Milky Chew Chicken Bone Style Dog Treats as part of its carefully chosen range of treats that prioritise your dog's safety, enjoyment, and well-being.
Ingredients:
Starch (Modified Starch): Derived from plant sources, modified starch serves as the structural backbone of each chew. It forms a cohesive, pliable matrix that supports the bone shape while ensuring the treat remains soft enough for dogs as young as 2 months. At the digestive level, it is broken down by salivary and pancreatic amylase into simple glucose units, making it a highly digestible source of readily available energy.
Sorbitol: Sorbitol (D-glucitol) is a sugar alcohol that functions as a humectant in these chews, retaining the moisture content necessary to deliver the soft, pliable chewing texture. Unlike sucrose, sorbitol is absorbed slowly in the gastrointestinal tract, making it less likely to cause rapid blood glucose spikes. It also contributes mildly to the palatability profile of the treat.
Soy Protein (Glycine max): Soy protein is a complete plant-derived protein source rich in essential amino acids including lysine and methionine. Within the body, these amino acids serve as the foundational building blocks for muscle fibre repair and growth, synthesis of enzymes and hormones, and maintenance of lean body mass. Soy protein in chew treats also contributes to the treat's chewy texture and structural integrity during the chewing process.
Corn Starch (Zea mays): Corn starch acts synergistically with modified starch to bind the ingredients and create the treat's smooth, uniform consistency. It is a rapidly fermentable carbohydrate that supports gut microbiome diversity when partially fermented in the large intestine, contributing to improved digestive regularity and stool quality.
Sunflower Oil (Helianthus annuus): Cold-pressed sunflower oil is an excellent source of linoleic acid (omega-6 fatty acid), which plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity of the epidermal lipid barrier, regulating transepidermal water loss, and supporting a lustrous, supple coat. At the cellular level, omega-6 fatty acids are precursors to anti-inflammatory eicosanoids that modulate local immune responses in skin tissue.
Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3): Calcium carbonate is a bioavailable inorganic calcium salt that directly reinforces skeletal integrity by supplying calcium ions critical to hydroxyapatite formation in bone matrix. It also supports neuromuscular function, as adequate serum calcium is essential for proper nerve impulse transmission and smooth muscle contractility. In the oral cavity, calcium ions contribute to remineralisation of enamel surfaces during and after chewing.
Milk Flavour: The milk flavouring in these treats activates olfactory and gustatory receptors in your canine companion, making the chew exceptionally palatable and motivating. Milk-derived flavour compounds contain casein-derived peptides that have demonstrated mild opioid receptor affinity in animal studies, potentially contributing to a calming and satisfying chewing experience.
Chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus): Real chicken meat provides a high-quality animal protein profile rich in branched-chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, and valine), which are directly utilised by skeletal muscle for protein synthesis and recovery. Chicken is also a natural source of B vitamins, particularly niacin (B3) and pyridoxine (B6), which support cellular energy metabolism and neurological health.
