"My dog is a serious chewer, and I'm always on the lookout for something that will keep him occupied for more than five minutes. This Etta Says! MEGA chew is a lifesaver. It's massive - seriously, it's like a foot long! Best of all, it's rawhide-free, so I don't have to worry about any tummy trouble..."

— Cassandra

"This really is not a "chew" so much as it is a large crunchy treat. My young dog ate it in seconds. I was looking for something that would keep her busy for an hour or so. Labeling it a mega chew is misleading."

Bottom Line

If your dog loves to chew and doesn't have a sensitive stomach, this product is worth a try. Be cautious with the durability claims and monitor your dog's digestive health.
