Product Information

Naturally, chewing aggression differs from one dog to another. With that in mind, Nylabone has gone out of their way to create something for just about every dog, including the meanest chewer out there.

Nylabone healthy edibles: Because they are meant for consumption, ingredients differ from one variety to the other, just like with most of dog treats. Expect to see proteins, carbs, fruits, minerals, flavorings, you name it. Inspect the chew before every chew session. Examine your dog’s chew for sharp edges and loose bits to prevent mouth injuries or ingestion. You also want to make sure the bone hasn’t become too small. Proper storage: Being made of plastic, the Nylabone will be affected by the heat if it’s left out in the sun. When plastic melts, it releases toxic chemicals, so always store this toy away when not in use, preferably out of reach of your dog.

That’s why it is a healthy idea to get your dog a chew toy that can last. This nearly indestructible chew toy is purposely built for the aggressive chewers. If none of the chew toys you’ve tried has the ability to stand up to your hound’s chewing prowess, try the Nylabone dinosaur. Your pooch will have met its match.
