Petstages Dogwood Wood Alternative Dog Chew Toy, XS

My dogs really enjoyed these! They are not stinky the other bully sticks. They were not long lasting like other bully sticks. They chewed them up in minutes. They are beef pizzle.

I just adopted a beagle mix who is about 12 weeks old, 8 lbs. or so, and beginning his teething phase. We are working on drop it because he is the type that LOVES to eat anything and everything off the ground when we go for walks. Since I live in an urban area, there is a lot of litter and a lot of mulch around. In just this last week he has tried to eat a full menthol cigarette, a receipt, an entire paper towel, bees, butterflies, wasps, weeds, a plastic bag, a black and mild wrapper, poop, a dead squirrel, a live snake, a toddler's bag of cheerios, a pool noodle, a condom wrapper, ants, a crushed coke can, a coffee cup, but mostly WOOD. Anything wood. Any twig, branch, or piece of mulch, he runs up to it like a kid on Christmas and immediately starts stuffing his face!Since wood and mulch seem to be his preferred method of intestinal blockage that will cost me thousands to fix, I started looking for some fake doggy approved wood chew toys and stumbled across this. I bought him the small since he is still a puppy, and he didn't go nuts for it like I thought he would but he still seems to like it ok, and he goes back to it a couple times per day. I thought it might have been a bust but then I realized his wood addiction seemed to immediately and dramatically decline since bringing this home. Sure, he'll still pick up the occasional stick and I do still have to pull a piece of mulch out of his mouth every now and then, but he isn't obsessively and compulsively driven to them on our walks anymore which has also help a lot with leash training. It's like he knows he has his own wood at home so he doesn't have to try to stuff his cheeks full of wood chips like a deranged chipmunk who thinks he'll never see a tree again.It doesn't have a noticeable odor, it feels a lot like solid wood, and seems pretty heavy duty. With a fair amount of chewing over the last few days, there are some dings and teeth marks but no large chunks missing so I anticipate this will last most of his teething phase. If you have an adult power chewer, I don't think this would last terribly long (but then again, what does?). Overall, a pretty inexpensive way to curb his wood addiction and prevent him from choking or giving himself intestinal blockage. $4 to save thousands or prevent death? Worth every penny!

Recommended for piranha teeth in a puppy they can tear up tough chew toys like their paper. She hasn’t been able to get much damage done on this one. I am very impressed. We’ve had it for about three weeks now.

This was great, lasted about 2-3 months. My nylabones last YEARS so it's not as good quality as nylabone or lumabone or benebone, but my dog really really loves this and plays with it every day

My little Rosie loves to chew everything. I use a solid wooden cane and Rosie was able to strip several layers. Now, this is her favorite thing to chew. I recommend this product!

My pup is a chewer and she is now on number three of this chew bones. I try and keep a lot of different chews toys for her as she will chew my house down if she could. So as soon as I see this chew bone looks about ready to throw out I order another. My pup rea loves her chew toys!

They may taste like wood supposedly but my German Shepherd still likes my wooden picnic table better

Holds up to a obsessive chewer bully mix and a casual chewer lab puppy after 5 days. Love that it isa softer solid chew, doesnt hurt to tap my knee with it so its not damaging teeth as some others do. Only issue is it's just thin enough to slide under the couch, but that's my own fault for not reading dimensions.
