A composition and process for making pet food treats is described herein. Auxiliary ingredients are combined to form a meat mixture. The meat mixture is formed into portions. The portions of meat mixture are positioned on a chew stick that comprises rawhide. The pet treat gives the appearance of a grilled shish kabob, where the meat portions are meant for initial taste, while the chew stick will provide the dog with a longer-lasting chewing portion.

A corn cob type pet chew where the corn cob has improved digestibility. The improved digestibility is provided by digestive enzymes and/or incorporating selected locations of mechanical weaking so that the corn cob will also more readily reduce in size when chewed upon by the animal. The corn cob may also optionally include other additives, such as mineral fillers. The minerals may also assist in digestion.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising elastin, said composition having an improved oil and water binding capacity and improved emulsification properties. The composition of the present invention is specifically suitable for use in food and pet food applications as protein supplement or as replacement of specific texturizing ingredients.

A nutritional supplement is disclosed. The nutritional supplement may be included in a fish diet. The nutritional supplement may include a carrier oil; 22-30 wt. % Omega 3; and 8-20 wt. % Omega 7. In some embodiments, the carrier oil may be a vegetable oil. In some embodiments, the Omega 3 includes EPA and DHA fatty acids. In some embodiments, the Omega 3 includes is a mixture of EPA and DHA having ratios in the range of 1:10 to 10:1 wt. %.

Collagen pet chews made of at least one piece of bovine corium and at least one piece of fish skin, the fish skin having a scaled surface that is oriented away from the piece of bovine corium, the corium and fish skin being rolled into a desired shape, preferably a cylinder, and treated with dry heat to release gelatinous adhesive in the corium and fish skin that couples the corium and fish skin. The layered dehydrated collagen pet chew having improved flavor and textural characteristics.

An edible pet chew includes an artificial dehydrated-pizzle component imitating traditional dehydrated-pizzle (or bully stick), which may include a tapered head part at an end. In some embodiments, the artificial dehydrated-pizzle component is formed by injection molding process and is formed from a composite material. In some embodiments, the composite material includes at least 20% plant ingredient in formula. In some embodiments, the artificial dehydrated-pizzle component has a groove running on the surface.

A composition of organic materials includes an organ-based animal meat reduced to a pulp, a binder, and a percentage of liquid to enable creation of a homogeneous mixture with a viscosity similar to a batter upon blending the organic materials together. The mixture is poured into a waffle form and cooked, then cooled, freeze dried, and vacuum sealed into an individual pouch.
