Original Dog Chew - X - Large

We love them. I do because they last a long time, they don't have that weird rawhide smell, they don't leave color on my fabrics, and they are natural not full of chemicals. Elliott (fur baby) loves how they taste (bacon yummy), likes the size and how chewy it is. Two paws up!

I've been looking for a longer lasting chew for our 200 lb great dane. He's not a heavy chewer but sometimes needs something to help settle. Bully sticks and pigs ears don't last long enough, nylon bones don't interest him and antlers make me worried for his teeth. He's loving this and it's lasted multiple chew sessions! I can't comment on how messy it is because with him everything is messy but it's easy to clean up and doesn't stink. We will be repurchase when he finally finishes it.

I have a Labrador who's just about a year old and she just loves these things. When she was a puppy I would buy the big one meant for a 70lb dog and it would last almost 2 weeks (she was about 3ish months old and 25-40lbs), however as she has gotten bigger (recently purchased the same 70lb dog treat) and I have found that since we are on a budget these just aren't cost effective anymore because she tears through them in less than 3 hours of straight chewing and even at the low price point amazon sells it at it just won't work for us anymore. Now that should not discourage you if you can fit this into your budget, it is a fantastic chew for your dog no matter the size. We loved it because it was all natural and way healthier than rawhides and when talking about cooked bones and antlers, my lab just mows them down so this was great for us because it seemed to be difficult (not impossible) for her to actually choke on it. Now when it got down to a nub, yes I could see it but that was usually a week in. She and I loved to watch it puff up in the microwave too, did not leave too much of a mess on the floor. My dog would sometimes get a small piece off and it would fall to the ground and she would go back to chewing the large piece and didn't pick up the small pieces (about the size of a rice kernel) but hit it with a sweep of a vacuum and you're good. Long story short, this is a solid chew and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a special treat or weekly chew for their SMALL to MEDIUM dog.

My dawgs loved these. They chewd them too fast. I have two serous chewers! One of the bones was cracked to pieces. That shocked me. I buy these all of the time from Hollywood Feed.I've never had that happen before!

I have a super muscular black lab who weighs 85 pounds, and a German Shepherd/Corb Shepherd mix (Romanian bear hunting and wolf hunting sheep herding breed, very big) who's slightly bigger than the lab. They chew on them for about two hours at a time and then start arguing over who gets which bone so I take them away. I'll give them back a day or two later for another two hours and then the same thing happens. So I would say they probably get a good 8 hours of chewing on these before I pop them in the microwave to puff up, when they are about 2 inches long. The minute they realize that's what I am about to do they go crazy. It changes the texture of them and I think the heat just releases this smell that they absolutely love. But they come out of the microwave extremely hot, and not just on the outside. They have to cool significantly before I can give them back. So that does make my pups quite impatient. I pop them in the freezer and I know it's safe within five minutes. Another thing I've noticed is that they enjoy playing with these bones as much as chewing on them. When I first gave one to my lab when he was seven or eight months old, he sneezed at it and tossed it around the room like it was alive and he needed to kill it first. That went on for days before he finally started chewing on it. Now that he has a better idea of how good it is he plays with it a little each time I give it to him, but then really gets to work chewing on it. My shepherd mix who just turned one still plays with it that way for a while each time I give it to her, and that's not something she normally does with other treats or chew toys. She is strictly a chewer normally. I have purchased dozens of different types of treats for them online and in the store, and this is by far their favorite treat. It's also the longest lasting treat. Everything else I buy that claims to be long-lasting, whether it's a natural animal product or something factory made, is gone in half an hour tops. So in my opinion it is definitely worth spending a few extra dollars for these treats because they will outlast anything else I've tried and my dogs never get tired of them.

This product is DANGEROUS and should be removed from Amazon until product quality issues are addressed.The quality of this product has varied significantly over the last few years. When this product first appeared on Amazon (shortly after appearing on the TV show "Shark Tank") it was a long lasting high quality dog chew.Unfortunately, there have been significant issues with product consistency more recently, including:*Chew consistency is chalky (e.g. softer) and lasts 10 minutes (instead of hours)*Smoking process leaves excessive smoke smell, tainting the chew (chew smells like an ashtray)*Significant amounts of mold/spores present on the chew (visible inside the new, unopened package)*Chew is over dried (DANGEROUS) - when the chew is exposed to water (e.g. dog saliva) it forms cracks which chip off in to dangerously sharp piecesI cannot stress the importance and danger of the last issue. These chews become fractured (as shown in numerous pictures by other reviewers) , causing pieces of the chew to shear off. This appears similar to 'flintknapping' (the processed used to make arrowheads or sharp tools using rocks); the chips are both pointy and can have very hard thin edges (sharp). The chew continues to slough off pieces as the outer layers are chipped off. As other reviewers have mentioned, this can cause to the chew to disintegrate, leaving pieces too large to digest, but small enough to swallow.If you do decide to purchase this product (please don't), please first expose to the chew to warm running water for 1-2 minutes, then allow the chew to dry out. If you hear subtle cracking sounds (like pop-rocks) while the water is running or small cracks appear on the chew once it is dry, RETURN THE CHEW - IT IS DANGEROUS.

My puppy loves these! It helps so she does not chew what she shouldn’t. This size lasts us about two weeks (my puppy is about 40 lbs)

I was really excited to find a chew that's supposed to be super long-lasting AND natural so I can feel good about giving this to my dog and enjoy some quiet time! Plus, my dog LOVES cheese and yogurt and anything dairy so I figured this would be a huge winner with her.Obviously since you're reading this review you realize that this thing is pretty expensive. Ok...not PRETTY expensive, it IS expensive. Unfortunately it didn't turn out to be quite the incredible new chew discovery I had hoped it would be.First of all, I am not new to dog chews. My fiance and I have an 80 lb Doberman who has had raw hides (in many shapes and sizes), bully sticks, tracheas and a bunch of other kinds I can't even remember the names of. Since she is quite the spoiled little princess dog, she gets chews on a pretty regular basis and has learned to make quick work of chews that used to take her longer. Raw hides and bully sticks last the longest with her. She'll usually work on it for an hour or so (maybe less) before wrapping it up and saving it for later. They usually last 2-3 sessions.Since this is supposed to be ultra-long lasting, I expected it to last longer than her raw hides and bully sticks. Well...in an hour (maybe a little longer...but only by 10 minutes at most), she had finished half. So pretty much that means it would last 2 hours if she ate it in one session. After half she decided she had enough and lef it for later. So really, this lasts no longer than her raw hides and bully sticks except it costs about 4x (or more) more. Granted the benefit of this is that it doesn't smell (like bully sticks) and it doesn't stain (like raw hides). However, I don't think that benefit is worth all that extra money. Obviously this is expensive because of its source and the process for making this and I completely appreciate that...I just don't want to spend money on that.Really though, if this was something she absolutely went crazy for, I'd say it's still worth it to purchase for her (like I said...she's spoiled)...but she's not even that into this thing. I thought for sure she'd love it since it's dairy-based but she's pretty 'meh' about it I guess.It took her awhile to get into it. She was crazy sniffing and sitting for it when I first took it out to give to her but after she got it she spent quite awhile trying to find a place for it and then pretty much just left it there for a few hours. I figured it was because she wasn't familiar with it and wasn't sure what to do with it, but now I think it's just that she has other chews she prefers. After she finished half to leave for later I was worried she would finish the whole thing in one day so I took it away for awhile. When I gave it back to her she pretty much just found a place for it and left it there...she'll pick it up occasionally but not to chew. She likes to pick things up when she gets excited and that's the extent of her interaction with this thing. Since then she has received a few other chews that she has chewed, left, and gone back to and finished...this one is still just sitting there.I'll probably buy another one at some point in the distant future to see if she takes to it more (maybe it IS just a novelty thing with her) but really, this is no miracle ultra-long lasting chew...at least not for my dog. 2 hours is a good amount of time but there are other chews that provide the same chew time at a fraction of the cost.Oh...I should also mention that there didn't really seem to be any adverse effects with this for my dog (stomach upset, diarrhea etc.).

My dog absolutely love these!

I know it was expensive, but these have likely saved me hundreds in other damage from chewingchewing. Keeps the puppy busy. Would recommend as a natural alternative to chew toys and not adding much to upset diet

My dog absolutely loved this and made sure to sleep on it so no one else would take it. Its just a bit too expensive for what it is. Definitely will only purchase it once in awhile as a special treat.

my dog got very sick after eating it.

The dog loved them. Safe and healthy for my puppy dog.
