Ziwi Peak Oral Health Deer Shank Bone Dog Chew

My dog Shadow is a lab/pit mix and I like to get her antlers/bones to chew on. Usually I get the USA Bones & Chews, but I figured I'd switch it up and try something for a bit of variety and oh boy was I not happy. When I first saw it I hesitated even giving it to her because it was so much smaller than I anticipated (in all fairness I probably should've read the dimensions/looked at comments), but I thought I'd watch her and see how it goes. I had to take it away from her almost within the first half hour of chewing on it because she had peeled it and then began breaking bits and pieces off that I'd have to pick up so she wouldn't swallow. I'm sure this would be great for a smaller dog who doesn't My dog Shadow is a lab/pit mix and I like to get her antlers/bones to chew on.

I was VERY excited about this. BUT. It's like there is a skin film (?) around the actual bone. This is what the dog will actually 'splinter' off. I managed to pull it off & cut it up very small as it's very thin & not hard. I felt like even with direct supervision there was too much room for error though. Watson my spoo goes CRAZY for it! It is also VERY STICKY & GREASY, so more of an outside bone, or on tile only.

Once the outer coat was chewed off neither dog cared about this treat. Really disappointing considering the price.

My pup was a bit apprehensive at first but then went to town. She was on it from when I went to work and still when I came back! Occasionally she would walk around whining w it in her mouth looking for a place to hide it bc she loved it so much. Only thing is that it was shockingly A LOT smaller than expected. It was fine for her bc she’s only 7lbs

Both our boys loved these and I bought them the full sized version the next time around. We have a GSD and a Malinois and they both enjoyed the bones for quite awhile. I eventually threw them away once they got too small but lots of fun for them both before that

The first bone I received was about 6-7in long and 1in diameter at the smallest tip. After thinking it’s a great deal I decided to add to autoship. The second bone I received was about 2in shorter and very thin. I removed from the autoship.

I ordered full sized bones to give out as gifts to dog friends. Within minutes the bones shattered into a dangerously sharp sections. I'm not taking any chances on a dog getting injured from a bad bone so the other will be tossed into the trash can.

Finally found something Max likes. He loves this bone and it is long lasting. A definite buy for our boy.

Cutie loved it and is still loving it! A great chew!

I have a very picky eater (Lhasa Apso). And that isn't an exaggeration. He will turn his nose up to even shredded chicken and beef. It's a nightmare at dinner time when he's being picky and treats are much the same. I've noticed a consistency in what he likes; duck flavored thing (jerky in particular), bully sticks, tripe, tendons and you guessed it...trachea. He usually gets strips of trachea so I was exited to try this. My dog doesn't like plain bones so I thought it was a good hit. It's expensive, so of course he liked it! He spent about an hour chewing off the trachea and did cause a little bit of a mess. I would highly recommend watching your dog when he's eating this (as with any bone!)

I would highly recommend watching your dog when he's eating this (as with any bone!) because he managed to tear off a longer strip and tried to swallow. It got stuck in his throat a bit. He was able to breath just fine but kept smacking his lips. I was able to look in his mouth and easily pull it out. He never had an issue after. Once he finished the trachea, he gnawed on the bone for a bit before I tossed in the trash (too afraid of shards but the bone was super thick) Will be buying in the future as special treats. For reference my dog is 25 pounds and I felt the half shank was perfectly safe for him. … more
