In a Nutshell

  • Lowers boredom in dogs with long chew sessions
  • Can be too hard for some dogs, discouragingly firm
  • Satisfying for moderate chewers, potentially risky for aggressive chewers
  • Better suited for less powerful chewers due to durability issues

Quick Verdict

The Nylabone Power Chew Cheese Dog Toy is loved by many dogs for its durability and engaging chew, but it poses a risk for heavy chewers. It's a good option for dogs that don't chew too aggressively, and it provides long-lasting entertainment.

"My miniature dachshund is 11 months old and is a super strong power chewer. Always destroying his toys when he buy them, some of them not lasting five minutes. That goes for regular toys and other power or tough chewer toys! Nylabone, specifically the power chew toys, never disappoint us. These toys..."

"This is advertised as a power chew toy, however my small dog began chewing pieces off of it immediately after she received. The item had to be thrown away a couple of days after it arrived."

Bottom Line

If your dog is a moderate chewer, this can be a good investment for long-lasting chew entertainment. However, heavy chewers and their owners should be cautious and possibly look for a more robust option.
