Highlighted Reviews
"My dog has chewed these for the last few years and absolutely loves them. But the Chewy price has more than doubled between 5/23 and 6/23. What gives?? They are unaffordable now. I recommended them to several people, but that was at the lower and more reasonable price. But not at this price."
"I haven't figured him out completely ( I've only had him a couple of years) but sometimes Chester just isn't interested in chews. He LOVES these They're American, and really beef so I'm comfortable giving them to him"

Best for dog owners seeking durable, engaging chews, but be prepared for potential unavailability and higher prices.
