“As pet parents ourselves, we know firsthand just how rewarding it is to see our dogs excited for high-quality chews they love and we feel good giving,” said Glen S.

The new Cadet products include:
Cadet Chewalicious No Rawhide Chews – The first long-lasting chews launched under the new Chewalicious product line, Chewy ‘N Crunchy Braids and Chewy ‘N Crunchy Spirals combine two enticing textures in each flavor-packed natural chew. The easy-to-digest rawhide alternatives are crafted with real chicken and don’t contain any artificial flavors or preservatives. Made with patent-pending technology, the unique braids and spirals include enticing grooves that also help clean teeth as dogs chew.
Cadet Chef’s Specialties Beef Hide Shish Kabobs – Expanding the Cadet brand’s assortment of Beef Hide Shish Kabobs, these premium hides are inspired by iconic food combinations humans love and dogs always wished they could try. The culinary-like flavors include Steakhouse Cheeseburger, Apple Peanut Butter Delight, and Grilled Surf & Turf—all crafted with real ingredients such as beef, salmon, cheese, apple, and peanut butter. Each irresistible flavor duo is wrapped around premium beef hide, making them a long-lasting reward with naturally occurring collagen. All Chef’s Specialties™ kabobs are sized large for dogs over 30 pounds.
Cadet Homestyle Jerky Turducken Recipe – Dogs can now indulge in the classic flavor medley of turducken with the latest variety in the Cadet premium treat collection.
