The ASMR Trigger

That sound? It's not a marketing gimmick. It's collagen and cartilage doing exactly what they're supposed to.

Slow-dehydrated, never fried, never paste. Every bite makes your dog actually chew — which scrubs teeth, exhausts the brain, and delivers the natural Type II collagen and glucosamine your vet keeps quoting in thousands.

// Ingredient. That's the entire list.

Just chicken cartilage.
Nothing else snuck in.

Read the back of any "joint treat" in your local petshop and you'll find rendered meal, glycerin, sugar, food colour, and a paragraph of preservatives. Ours says one word. Free-farm bird, slow-dehydrated in our Thane kitchen, packed. Most of the raw weight is moisture — slow heat takes it out and leaves the dense, joint-rich crunch behind.

How we make it

From farm to jar,
with nothing skipped.

Source

Free-farm raised, single-source.

We work with audited farm partners — not factory-line suppliers — and pick the cuts that actually carry the nutrition. No mystery meat, no rendered meal, no protein blends. One source, one cut, every batch traceable to the farm it came from.

Trim

Hand-trimmed in our Thane kitchen.

Most "natural" treats throw the raw cut into the dehydrator with the fat, skin and tendon ribbons attached. Fat oxidises faster, shortens shelf life by months, and adds calories your dog doesn't need. We trim by hand. The slow part of the process is here.

Slow heat

Low temperature. No shortcut.

Twelve-plus hours in a controlled-humidity dehydrator at low temperature. Slow heat preserves the protein, collagen and natural minerals. High-temp drying — the industry shortcut — denatures the protein and turns it into brittle dust. We finish each batch under 8% moisture, the threshold below which microbes can't grow.

Quality

Hand-checked. Splinter-tested.

Every piece is checked at the bench for moisture, snap, and texture. Hard chews go through a controlled splinter test — we want them to break into chewable shards, not dangerous fragments.

Whole ingredient

Just chicken cartilage. That's the entire recipe — nothing else snuck into the jar.

500 g
Per jar

Densely-packed pure cartilage. Most of the raw weight is moisture; slow heat removes it.

II
Type collagen + minerals

Type II collagen is the structural protein in joint cartilage. Plus glucosamine, chondroitin, calcium and phosphorus — the full mineral matrix dogs evolved to digest.

9 mo
Sealed shelf-life

Best before 9 months from manufacture. Keep the jar sealed and the crunch stays crunchy.

“Buddy has noticeable joint stiffness on cold mornings. Three weeks of these twice a week and his post-walk recovery is visibly faster. Worth every rupee.”

The raw question every pet parent asks

Why raw doesn't work
in Indian weather.

Indian pet parents who feed raw are trying to feed clean — the instinct is right. The risk isn't even the meat itself; it's the cross-contamination chain after the meal — the bowl, the lick, the sofa, your hands. Slow dehydration is the perfect fix.

The dog eats wherever the dog eats — sofa, floor, sometimes your bed. Bowl, lick, the surfaces after. That's the contamination chain raw food rides through your home.

Cooked bones splinter, so most home-cooked dog meals skip bones. Smart for safety, but it leaves a calcium, phosphorus, and cartilage gap.

Slow dehydration is the middle path that solves both. Whole-food nutrition. No live bacteria. No splinter risk. The dog gets the full joint, calcium, and protein matrix — without you mopping the sofa afterwards.

30 min

Salmonella doubling at 30°C

Half-hour and the count doubles. Dehydration takes the moisture bacteria need to multiply away entirely.

<8%

Our moisture endpoint

Below this threshold, no microbe can grow. Slow heat takes us under, every batch.

5000 yr

Of dehydration as preservation

Older than refrigeration. Older than pet food. The simplest fix has been the right fix all along.

Real questions, real answers

The stuff dog parents actually ask us.

What's the difference between this and chicken feet?

Both are collagen-rich. Chicken feet have more skin and tendons → longer chew time. Cartilage is denser in Type II collagen and chondroitin → the joint-cushioning specialists. If your dog needs a destruction-chew, feet. If your dog needs targeted joint support, this.

Is this safe for my puppy?

From 6 months onwards. The pieces are crunchy but yielding (they break into chewable shards rather than splintering like cooked bone). Always supervise the first chew. For very small breeds (under 5 kg adult), break the piece in half. Under 6 months, your puppy's gut isn't ready for dense chews yet.

Why this and not a glucosamine supplement?

Different approach. Tablets give you precise milligrams. A whole-food source delivers Type II collagen + glucosamine + chondroitin together — naturally bundled in actual cartilage — and most dogs would rather chew than swallow a pill.

Can my dog choke on it?

Cartilage is firm but not bone-hard. It crunches and breaks down with chewing rather than splintering. Always supervise. For smaller dogs, break the piece in half before giving.

How much should I feed?

Small dogs (up to 7 kg): half a piece, 1–2 times a week. Medium (8–20 kg): one piece, 2–3 times a week. Large (20 kg+): 1–2 pieces, 3–4 times a week. First-time, give a small portion and watch for digestive upset before going to a full piece.

How do I store it after opening?

Cool, dry place. Just keep the jar sealed and you're fine — these are dehydrated, they're not going anywhere fast. In monsoon humidity an airtight container helps keep the crunch crisp. Sealed jar: best before 9 months from manufacture.
