Two bulk treats, two very different chewing jobs
These two products are often compared because both arrive in large boxes at a lower cost per treat than buying singles. Beyond that, they solve different problems. The Classic pig's ears are firm natural chews that occupy a dog for a while. The Woodfold Farm chicken and rice sticks are soft, moist treats built for quick rewards and training.
Choosing between them comes down to how your dog chews, how you plan to use the treat, and how much space you have for storage. The records below cover what each box contains and what is confirmed about suitability.
Texture and chewing time side by side
- Classic pig's ears: Firm natural chew made from a single ingredient. The chewing action is described as helping reduce plaque and tartar buildup, so these suit dogs that settle down with a chew for a stretch of time.
- Woodfold Farm chicken and rice sticks: Soft, chewy and moist, measuring 12.5cm (5 inches). They can be given whole or broken into smaller pieces, which makes them fast to deliver and easy to portion during training.
What each box actually contains
- Dog Treats – 100 Natural Pig’s Ears Premium Box | Classic: Bulk box of 100 additive-free pig's ears from European suppliers, listed as suitable for dogs of all breeds and sizes. A box of 100 is a long-term supply, so storage space and how often your dog gets a firm chew both matter before you buy.
Dog Treats – 100 Natural Pig’s Ears Premium Box | Classic - Dog Treat Sticks Chicken & Rice 5″ (12.5cm) – Box of 80 | Woodfold Farm: Box of 80 gluten-free chicken and rice sticks, made in the UK, each 12.5cm (5 inches) long. Eighty soft sticks go further in a training routine because each one can be broken into several rewards.

Matching the chew to your dog
Both products are listed as suitable for dogs of all sizes, but the texture difference still affects how each one works in practice.
- Dogs that need to slow down and chew: A firm pig's ear gives a dog something to work on. The product record links the chewing action to reduced plaque and tartar buildup, which is the main reason to choose this type over a soft stick.
- Small dogs and puppies in training: The chicken and rice sticks can be broken into smaller pieces, which the record specifically notes for small dogs. That makes them easier to fit into short training sessions without over-treating.
- Dogs that prefer softer textures: The Woodfold Farm sticks are described as ideal for dogs who prefer softer treats, so a dog that ignores firm chews may take to these more readily.
Ingredients and what the records confirm
The pig's ears are described as 100% natural and additive-free, with no preservatives or fillers, and are hand-selected and quality inspected. The chicken and rice sticks are gluten-free and made with real chicken and rice. Both are described as high in protein.
What the records do not include is feeding guidance: neither product supplies a recommended daily amount or frequency. Treat quantity should follow your own vet's advice and your dog's overall diet rather than a number taken from a product page.
Value and storage at a glance
- Dog Treats – 100 Natural Pig’s Ears Premium Box | Classic: Catalog price USD 66.00 for 100 pig's ears, compared with a catalog comparison price of USD 100.00. The bulk format lowers the cost per chew, but only if you have room to store 100 firm ears and your dog gets through them.
- Dog Treat Sticks Chicken & Rice 5″ (12.5cm) – Box of 80 | Woodfold Farm: Catalog price USD 23.79 for 80 sticks, compared with a catalog comparison price of USD 39.00. A lower entry price with 80 breakable sticks suits households that reward frequently rather than offering an occasional long chew.
Which one belongs in your basket
Choose the pig's ears if your dog enjoys a firm chew and you want a long-lasting natural option with dental benefits described in the record. Choose the chicken and rice sticks if you need soft, breakable rewards for training, a dog that prefers softer textures, or a smaller upfront spend.
Many households keep both: a firm chew for quiet time and soft sticks for rewards. Neither record gives storage instructions beyond the pig's ears box being described as a convenient storage solution, so follow the packaging when it arrives.
