That’s why Sacred Mountain is the ultimate treat for dogs—made with 100% USDA beef from Miller Ranch Beef, only 3 ingredients freeze dried beef liver, heart, and tongue.
Reminder- while this garbage looks like a "Treat" , it's NOT.
Rawhide treats are a disaster waiting to happen for your pet. Here’s the ugly truth:
Choking and Blockages: Imagine your dog eagerly chewing a rawhide, only for a soggy chunk to break off and lodge in their throat. Gasping for air, they’re at serious risk of choking—or worse, that piece could travel to their stomach and create a deadly intestinal blockage. Many dogs end up needing emergency surgery to remove these lodged pieces, and not all survive the ordeal.
Toxic Chemicals: Rawhides are often soaked in chemicals like bleach or hydrogen peroxide during processing to give them that “clean” look. Your pet is chewing on—and swallowing—chemical-laden leather, not a natural treat. (Partial List: Sodium Sulfide, Hydrogen Peroxide and Bleaches, Chromium Salts, Glue and Adhesives, Formaldehyde, Arsenic, Ammonium Compounds, Titanium Dioxide, Artificial Flavors and Dyes)
Bacterial Contamination: Because rawhide is animal skin, it’s prone to carrying bacteria like Salmonella or E. coli. Not only could your pet get sick, but handling contaminated rawhide could put your family’s health at risk, too.
Dental Dangers: Hard rawhide can shatter teeth, leading to painful fractures and costly vet visits. Imagine the agony your dog experiences when a molar cracks while they’re just trying to enjoy a treat.
Zero Nutrition: Rawhide isn’t food. It provides no nutritional benefit—it’s essentially leather your pet is chewing on.
The Bottom Line
Rawhide isn’t a treat—it’s a dangerous gamble. For the love of your furry friend, skip the rawhide and choose safer, natural alternatives like bully sticks or dental chews designed for pets. Their life—and your peace of mind—are worth it. 🐾❤️
