1 . A method of forming an edible pet chew, said method comprising:
providing an edible rawhide-free mixture that is extrudable and initially malleable;
forming said initially malleable rawhide-free edible mixture into a first sheet that is dimensioned large enough and thin enough to be initially malleable and cohesive after extrusion for use as a wrap by flexing, folding or rolling into a shape;
providing a second sheet made from flavored digestible and edible material;
placing said first and second sheets in superimposed relation;
wrapping said first sheet with said second sheet by rolling said first and second sheets up to have said first sheet and second sheet forming alternating layers; and
hardening said first sheet after it is wrapped with said second sheet such that said first sheet provides a hardened chewable wrap.
2 . A method as defined in claim 1 further comprising:
tying the ends of said edible pet chew into knots before hardening said first sheet.
3 . A method as defined in claim 2 wherein:
said first sheet comprises a substantially plant based composition; and

said first sheet comprises from a plant based and gelatin composition; and
said second sheet comprises a meat jerky.
5 . A method as defined in claim 4 further comprising:
said wrapping includes wrapping of said first sheet when malleable about said second sheet to form an outer layer of said edible pet chew.
6 . A method as defined in claim 1 wherein:
said wrapping includes wrapping of said first sheet when malleable about said second sheet to form an outer layer of said edible pet chew.
7 . A method as defined in claim 1 wherein:
said first sheet comprises a substantially plant based composition; and
said second sheet comprises a meat based material.
8 . A method as defined in claim 7 wherein:
said first sheet comprises from a plant based and gelatin composition; and
said second sheet comprises a meat jerky.
9 . A method as defined in claim 8 further comprising:
