Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our Pure Venison Sticks - Enriched with Antler Powder
-
Pure Venison Sticks enriched with Antler Powder are natural dog treats made from 99% premium venison meat and 1% naturally sourced antler powder. They are grain-free, high in protein and designed as a tasty, nutritious reward that also supports dental and joint health for your dog.
-
Yes, venison is a single, novel protein that many dogs with sensitivities to common meats like chicken, beef or lamb tolerate very well. Because these sticks are grain-free and made without artificial additives, they are a good choice for many dogs with food intolerances—though you should always introduce any new treat slowly and watch for any signs of reaction.
-
Antler powder naturally contains minerals such as calcium, phosphorus and trace elements that help support strong bones, joints and overall vitality. Combined with high-quality venison, it turns these sticks into more than just a snack, offering extra nutritional support in every bite.
-
These sticks are designed as complementary treats, not a complete food. Most dogs can enjoy a stick or part of a stick daily, depending on their size and total calorie needs, as long as treats make up no more than around 10% of their overall diet. Always adjust your dog’s main meals if you are giving extra treats.
-
These treats are generally suitable for puppies over 12 weeks of age and for most healthy adult and senior dogs, as long as they can comfortably chew them. For very young puppies, older dogs with dental issues, or dogs with specific medical conditions, it is best to check with your vet before offering firmer chews.
-
Yes, the chewy, slightly firm texture encourages your dog to gnaw, which can help to scrape away soft plaque and support better oral hygiene. While they are a helpful addition to your dog’s dental care routine, they should not replace regular tooth brushing or professional dental check-ups.
-
As a guide, small dogs may only need a portion of a stick, medium dogs may enjoy one stick, and large dogs may have one to two sticks depending on their size and activity level. Always supervise your dog while they are chewing and remove any small pieces that could be swallowed whole.
-
Store the sticks in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Reseal the pouch after opening or transfer the treats to an airtight container to keep them fresh and prevent them from drying out too much. Use them before the best-before date on the packaging.
-
Pure Venison Sticks are gently air-dried to lock in nutrients and flavour while making the meat safe and shelf-stable. When fed appropriately and under supervision, they are a safe, highly digestible treat for most dogs. Always provide fresh drinking water and choose chew sizes appropriate for your dog.
-
Yes, the venison used in our sticks comes from trusted suppliers who prioritise high welfare and sustainable management of deer, and the antler powder is made from naturally shed antlers. This allows you to treat your dog while supporting more responsible sourcing and using more of the animal in a respectful way.
