Feeding guide
Offer as an additional chew toy between meals and, as with all dried chewing products, supervise your dog during use. Ensure fresh drinking water is always available. Store in a cool, dry place.
Owning giant breeds means long lasting chew snacks, being a St Bernard, with a Newfie brother and an even the smaller Labradoodle brat means that we love these. They last longer than any other chew and a bit similar to Paddywack so we're all very happy thank you. Mum says it's about the same price as Paddywack and seems quite natuaral and wholesome. We keep telling her it's very healthy, good gum excercise and good for teeth cleaning too.

Nothing like the photo any more
Like many other reviewers, my disappointment in this product is matched by my concern for my dogs' safety.
The size and shape of these hard 'scraps' are too dangerous in my opinion to give to my dogs and they will have to be consigned to the bin. I have struggled to find one decent piece in each bag - simply not good enough!

My dog is sad
The last order of these was mostly small pieces with sharp points ... very very disappointed in Zooplus ... seems they have got popular and quality now has gone out of the window ... such a shame

Wow!
My dogs are between 3kg and 10kg. These are a perfect size and they all love them. Ill be buying more, they wanted more!

Used to be great :-(
I’m having exactly the same experience as many other reviewers- these used to be a great chew for our large dogs, but the bags are now full of very small absolutely useless bits.
Zooplus, please sort out your supply issues with this item!

Previously great, now poor
As with the many other reviews, these used to be excellent for my dogs but the last couple 4 bags I've ordered have been awful and I'm having to rummage around to find any that are suitable for my dogs. Please, please can the manufacturers go back to the previous good quality or change the photo and description to match the products that are now in the bags.

Small pieces!
What happened to these beef scalp pieces they used to have nice chunky pieces , now it is just full of small bits which are a choking hazard for my two big dogs. Please sort this out!

What has happened
I have bought these for my dogs for a while and they used to be much better than they are now. The recent orders have changed the pieces are much smaller and my dogs don't seem to enjoy them as much.

Lots of small pieces
These used to be excellent, good sized strips of chew that my dog loved.
The latest bag is a jumble of different sized pieces - including lots of small pieces which are simply just not safe to feed - a choking hazard as they are small enough to gulp, or get stuck on a back tooth. I feel I've been sent a bag of offcuts in error, and will have to throw half of the bag away.
There are about two pieces in the bag, which resemble the product photo.

Poor quality Scalp
Very disappointed with this product. It contained many sharp pieces and small bits. My two Labradors had problems chewing the product and due to the sharp points decided not to use.

Choke hazard
This is no longer suitable for big dogs as the pieces are now so small. Our dog choked on a piece that had not been suitably softened and tried to swallow it. The piece needed to be removed by me sticking my hand down his throat.

A favourite
This is by far my boys favourite treat ... it gives him a good chew work out and he seems to thoroughly enjoy eating them ... if offered one of these against a tripe strip he always goes for this first
They are also very good value

Good chewing
I ordered these a month ago and the dogs loved them, I was just about to order more but have read the reviews so decided not to get any this time. There appears to be a priblem with several of the other trhings I would normally buy but it dosn't look as though anything is being done about it.

It's good when it's right
Unfortunately, lately half the bag is made of unidentified white chews that my dog wouldn't even entertain, nothing at all like the pictures. Looks bleached. If there are brown dehydrated scalp pieces like the pictures, she still go mad for them, but it's not worth buying anymore when I have to throw away half the bag.

Great for dogs that eat/destroy everything in seconds
A few years back not long after we got our Rotty x German Shepherd x American Bull (..yes big dog!) we quickly noticed that no toy or chew would last him. Rawhide would work, but we are not keen on using... so i literally brought 1 of every type of animal chew on here, this worked out as the cheapest and longest chew we could find (1 piece will last him 10-20 minutes and costs pennies). He is fussy with his food and does go off it every now and then, but give it a few weeks and he loves it again

Not what it used to be :-(
This used to be one of the better longer lasting chews we give to our dobermann, but like others have said quality has dropped off a cliff with the majority of the bags on our last order made up of these white pieces that the dog won't even entertain eating. switching to the longer pieces and will cut up ourselves.

Were great. Not anymore!’
Totally agree with the more recent reviews that the packs are now filled with cheap white pieces that neither of my dogs will eat. They love the dark brown stinky pieces and still woof those down but they are dew and far between now. Very disappointing.

Quality control?
Sadly another regular on my order list along with rabbit ears that I will no longer purchase due to deterioration in quality over my last few orders. They usually smell but the last packet absolutely stank. There was no consistency with size either massive bits or tiny bits that were not safe to give. The appearance is now dirty and dark or white with lumps of hair. Yuk! Binned most of the last packet.

White pieces in pack
This product was brilliant when we first bought it. Now there are more and more white pieces (bleached?) in each bag - the last one was about half made up of these. My dog won't touch them and we tried giving them to another dog who also left them. Won't be buying again.
