Made from a sweet potato and pea flour base with real fruit and vegetable flavour ingredients, they are vegan, grain free, gluten free, and rawhide free. Sold individually, with multiple flavours available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreakable segment design:\u003c\/strong\u003e The bar has natural scoring along its length, making it easy to snap into consistently sized pieces with your fingers.

The segments hold together cleanly rather than crumbling, making it easy to get consistent pieces for training.

The Break A Bar is thicker and more substantial than the straw — a more filling chew for dogs that work through the straws quickly. The segment design makes it more flexible for portion control than the straw, which you can snap but doesn't have defined break points. The Straws are at 39p each, the Break A Bar at £1.35 — different sizes and textures for different treat contexts.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eAre these suitable for dogs with meat or grain allergies?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eYes — there is no meat, no animal-derived protein, no grain, and no gluten. The Apple \u0026amp; Spinach and Blueberry \u0026amp; Sweet Potato flavours are also free from common allergens. The Peanut Butter \u0026amp; Banana flavour contains peanuts, which are a legume and a known allergen for some dogs — if your dog has a nut sensitivity, choose one of the other two flavours.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eAre these suitable for puppies?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eSuitable from 12 weeks. The bar is substantial at 11.5cm, so break it into appropriate segments for your puppy's size and always supervise. The plant-based soft texture is easier on developing teeth than harder chews, and the low fat content makes it a lighter treat option for puppies compared to richer meat-based alternatives.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:0.5px solid #d3d1c7;border-radius:8px;margin-bottom:8px;overflow:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"padding:14px 18px;cursor:pointer;background:#f1efe8;font-size:14px;font-weight:500;color:#2c2c2a;list-style:none\"\u003eWhy is the xylitol-free label important for peanut butter?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;font-size:14px;color:#444441;line-height:1.65;border-top:0.5px solid #d3d1c7\"\u003eXylitol is a sweetener sometimes added to reduced-sugar and natural peanut butters. Even small amounts are highly toxic to dogs — causing rapid blood sugar drops and potential liver failure. The peanut butter in these bars contains no xylitol. This is worth knowing for any owner who also gives their dog human-grade peanut butter, where xylitol should always be checked on the label before use.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Miro \u0026 Makauri","offers":[{"title":"Peanut Butter \u0026 Banana","offer_id":53302262726994,"sku":"VG2079","price":1.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Apple \u0026 Spinach","offer_id":53684772208978,"sku":null,"price":1.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blueberry \u0026 Sweet Potato","offer_id":53684772241746,"sku":null,"price":1.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/7128\/4562\/files\/f6f0fd966e13a26e939207a71c71ae791cd66fe4c52544b9aefcaa201d077757.jpg?v=1781168827","url":"https:\/\/hairydogs.co.uk\/products\/maks-patch-break-a-bar","provider":"Hairy Dogs (Cambs) Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
