"These are perfect for a puppy! Whole pig ears can be so massive, but she loves them. So this is a happy medium for my girl"

— Patti

"The ears are gnarly hard balls -not slices - and not manageable for beagles without breaking a tooth. I purchase slices in other brands are awesome!"

Bottom Line

These treats can be a good option for smaller dogs with proper supervision, but be mindful of the hardness and unusual smell.
