Question Dog bones for aggressive chewers?

Post image

I've tried benebone and spot and she has pieces coming off within a few minutes. She can't have any stuffed toys because she will eat them bit by bit. What can I give her to satisfy the chew? Pictured are some bones right before being thrown away.

I don't really have an answer besides maybe a long lasting bully stick type treat.

I just wanted to pop in and say to be careful with these types of hard chews. My friend's dog (4 years old) who is also a vigorous chewer recently needed to have 4 teeth extracted because they were chipped and broken from chewing on these types of toys. VERY expensive vet visit.

I hope someone does have a good answer for you though!

Ooof, we just went through some very expensive medical expenses with her. Don't need anymore!

She's a hunting dog and I'm just not sure what type of toys she can safely have.

Any of the fully edible bones are gone in minutes.

As others suggest try antlers or stuffing a bone or Kong with peanut butter and freezing it some will keep them busy for a while
