The Chew Your Dog Will Come Running For.
Some treats get a polite sniff. Pig ears get a full-blown sprint from the other side of the house. Meet Pets Elite Pig Ear Strips - natural dried pork ear strips that tap straight into your dog's deepest chewing instincts. Firm, flavourful, satisfying, and made from a real whole animal part with absolutely nothing artificial added. Just honest, ancestral goodness in every strip.
You're looking at the Medium 225g Pack - a convenient everyday size perfect for regular use, single-dog households, or trying the pig ear range before committing to a larger pack. Also available in 450g and 900g Tub for better value on larger quantities.
What Makes It Different?
Pig ear strips are not a novelty treat. They are a biologically appropriate, nutrient-dense chew made from a real whole animal part - naturally rich in collagen, structural proteins, and animal-based nutrients that dogs have thrived on for thousands of years.
Unlike processed chews made from reformed meat, starches, or synthetic materials, Pets Elite Pig Ear Strips are cut from real pork ears and prepared using Pets Elite's traditional drying and preservation approach, with vinegar used during the preparation process. The result is a firm, chewy, deeply satisfying strip that gives your dog something genuinely worth working on.
Real ingredients. Zero shortcuts.

Feeding & Safety TipsAlways supervise your dog while chewing and keep fresh water available at all times. Pig Ear Strips are 100% digestible and do not splinter - making them a reassuringly safe everyday chew. Remove the strip if it becomes small enough to swallow whole. Natural variation in size, colour, thickness, and texture is expected between pieces - that's what real looks like. Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Feed as a complementary treat only. Treats should make up no more than 10% of your dog's daily calorie intake.
