Highlighted Reviews

— Chad

"I know I am supposed to rate just this one bone, but we bought about 10 different ones and she loved them all. She liked them all about the same. We had to trick her to take the bone away, so she can go to bed. We have Belgium Malinois."

— yode

"I gave my dog this bone yesterday and let him chew on it for about 10 minutes then took it away. It gave my dog horrible diarrhea."

Bottom Line

Opt for a safer alternative to avoid potential health risks for your dog. Avoid due to splintering risks despite some dogs enjoying the taste.
