Petstages Dogwood Tough Dog Chew Toy

We buy these for our Malinois who is a true Maligator when it comes to chewing things up. He can destroy things like no dog I've ever had. But these "sticks" REALLY last well. He actually gets tired and stops after an hour or 2...lol. He also likes to carry them around and hide them. When he finally hones each end down to look like a prison shank and it's too short for him to hold well with his big, super gripper paws/claws, we discard and start a new one. It keeps him busy and out of mischief when we aren't home...He is super happy and not eating our sofa!

We bought this for our lab puppy that was addicted to eating our mulch, sticks and wood furniture. She loves this stick! For those that feel your puppy destroyed the stick too quickly, try the next size up. We bought the large, and two months later it’s still around and she sands and bites that thing everyday. This is one of the few toys our aggressive chewer hasn’t destroyed quickly. Highly recommended!

This is a great Chewy toy! Seems like a real branch, great for chewers, especially for large dogs like my 7 month old Gus! He’s Great Pyrenees and Redbone Coonhound mix and his paws have a steady hold/grasp on this toy! It’s loud when he’s chewing this item or dropping it too get your undivided attention! It’s lasted longer than the Nylabone.

Our Mini Schnauzer loves to bring sticks and branches from outside and she has made a mess after mess! I bought her this Dogwood chew toy and she is in love! I never would’ve thought someone would think of this but I should’ve known. My mini Schnauzer is 7.5 almost 8 lbs. and I purchased the small size. So far it’s a hit!

3-year-old golden retriever (Belle) and 1-year-old male shihtzeranian (Boyd), and both will choose this stick over almost anything, and they like they at least as well as the peanut butter sticks and animal material sticks. Both of the latter have sharper edges and chew down too small and turn into choking hazards for an impatient dog like Boyd. Plus I've seen those kinds of sticks draw blood. They get rolled up in a way that creates too much of an edge on the ends. These have form, but no sharp spots, and they take FOREVER to chew down, so they don't ingest any great amount of anything in a sitting. Anyway, if you have a chewer, try these sticks. There are a lot of different kinds - like I said 3-year-old golden retriever (Belle) and 1-year-old male shihtzeranian (Boyd), and both will choose this stick over almost anything, and they like they at least as well as the peanut butter sticks and animal material sticks.

There are a lot of different kinds - like I said, both my dogs prefer these over the multiple that we've tried. Pic is of Boyd with the remnants of a large size stick. He prefers it to the petite, and it seems safer anyway, since he's as voracious a chewer as he is. Also, he likes it if you hold it sometimes. If you have a tiny hobby-chewer, the petite would probably be great. … more

These are supposed to be the best and safest options for dogs who like to chew wood (like our steps, ugh) and I was disappointed in how crummy they are. Our dog is a medium dog, moderate chewer, and she obliterated this thing in less than an afternoon. It turned into granola and I had to throw it away, after checking her throat and pulling shards of imitation wood out of our bare feet. Total bummer, do not recommend.

We have a 48 pound pup and bought size large. This is perfect for him! He is only allowed hard chew toys since he destroys and EATS soft fabric toys...so this is perfect. He immediately started chewing on it right out of the box, and has run around the house with it in his mouth like he is protecting it. Doesn’t have a scent to it which is nice.

My dog loves eating sticks and mulch. This toy proved to be just as favorable for her. Since giving her this chew toy, she rarely bothers with the mulch. I also love this for the durability. Our furbaby is an aggressive chewer. We got this a couple of weeks ago. Though she is breaking it down, she still finds it interesting and it provides hours of engagement daily.

We have English Cocker Spaniels. Although they aren't big dogs, they usually eat through other types of bones in minutes. These bones are super hard, last for weeks and all the dogs love chewing them.

My Boston loves these! She is not much of a chewer on her regular toys but if she gets one of these out she is one happy dog. Lasts a few weeks with her and I imagine it's good for her dental health as well. Awesome product.
