Top Dog Chews Premium Whitetail Deer Large Antler Dog Treat, 1 count

Excellent size for my dog (even after I had to saw off about 1/2" of the base) but for what I paid for it there should not have still been fur and dirt and who knows what else on the bottom in the grooves, which was already chipping at the edges as it hadn't been properly cleaned or anything and I don't want my dog getting some sort of disease or infection over an antler. Also, it wasn't naturally shed, which isn't something I'm too concerned about personally considering his food has venison in it and the antlers should go to use, regardless of where they come from. But if this is important to you, it's a marketing ploy where "naturally shed" in a case like this likely means something you don't want to know using terminology loopholes - like how so many large organic farms that claim not to use harmful chemical pesticides instead use harmful heavy metal pesticides instead but often don't even call them pesticides, or will call them "organic", and it still won't stop you from contracting a pathogen like E. Coli from all the handling and processing. Hence the issue with the antler. For some reason also my dog got down to about the last 4"-5" and even with marrow still inside as he started at the top and worked down, he can fit the whole thing in his mouth sideways now - mostly anyway, as it's nice and thick - but he isn't interested in the base of it for some reason, even after I cleaned it off and took off the fur and chips and a bit extra and there was still thick base left: something about it turns him off. I might try again in the future but for the price it would be a while.

It is just what I hoped for!!

My Golden didn’t care about this at all which was surprising because he loves split antlers. I’m pretty disappointed. I thought when he was a little older he might like. More but nothing has changed.
