Abstract
A rawhide pet chew is made by folding a first sheet of rawhide around at least a second sheet of rawhide and a third sheet of rawhide. The second and third sheets of rawhide are flavored to be appetizing to a pet, and the flavoring may impregnate the second and third sheets of rawhide. An edge of the second sheet of rawhide protrudes from under the first sheet to entice chewing and consumption of the pet chew by the pet. An edge of the third sheet of rawhide protrudes from under the first and second sheets to entice chewing and consumption of the pet chew by the pet. The first sheet of rawhide reduces opportunities for contact between the second and third sheets of rawhide and a decorative surface upon which the pet chew may rest.
