Anco Naturals Medium Buffalo Sticks – The Durable, Leaner Way to Chew
Our Anco Naturals Medium Buffalo Sticks are the perfect "occupational" treat for dogs that need more than a standard biscuit. Buffalo is often referred to as a "super-protein"—it is naturally lower in fat and cholesterol than beef, while being higher in iron and essential minerals. These sticks are made from 100% premium buffalo skin, air-dried to achieve a rock-hard consistency that provides a long-lasting, rewarding experience for your pet.
A Natural Solution for Dental Hygiene
Maintaining your dog’s oral health is essential, and these buffalo sticks make it easy. The intensive chewing action required to break down the tough, fibrous skin acts as a natural toothbrush. As your dog gnaws, the abrasive surface of the stick massages the gums and scrapes away plaque and tartar from the teeth. Because they are 100% natural, they are fully digestible and offer a much safer alternative to chemically treated rawhide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Buffalo Sticks suitable for puppies?
Yes, these are suitable for puppies from 12 weeks of age. They are particularly helpful for soothing sore gums during the teething process.
Is buffalo better for dogs than beef?
