A big win for my extremely aggressive chewer!

Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2016

As a former vet tech, rescuer and pup momma I've come across some chewers that take the cake. Of course, one of my own is the worse of the worst. My monster lab/poodle mix can DESTROY just about anything I buy for him . He snaps the ultra kongs in half without blinking and will crack even the largest Nylabones within a few minutes. Even toys marketed as indestructible with money back warranties fall to their death in his jaws. That said .... HE LOVES THIS BONE and hasn't managed to do much damage to it which makes it one of the best chew toys I've ever encountered.

BROKEN TEETH - Please read!

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2018

WARNING! PLEASE READ!

TLDR: These bones caused slab fractures in both of my dog's teeth I now have a $1300.00 vet bill and two samoyeds in a lot of pain.

I bought these bones as they have a very high rating, I thought I was doing my research well and making the right decision for my dogs. I do not give them any other type of bones; and 6 months later when I took them to the vet this is what they said:

The bones are too hard and even though they deteriorate as they chew on them the damage is done, both dogs have slab fractures in their molars and need to have them removed.

Mind you my one dog is only 3 and now has no top molars thanks to these bones, I feel like a terrible dog parent and do not want this to happen to anyone else. While the dogs do like these, the end result was pain and an extremely high vet bill. PLEASE USE WITH CAUTION, I recommend NOT AT ALL.

SERIOUSLY DO NOT BUY! BROKEN TOOTH

Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2020

Flavor Name: REAL PeanutSize: LargeVerified Purchase

HUGELY DISAPPOINTED AND BEYOND ANGRY!! My 16 month old, 82lbs Greater Swiss Mountain Dog / Rottweiler mix had just been attacked and had to have stitches and no off-leash time. I decided to get him a new toy to cheer him up, something he never had. After some research this bone seemed to be a good choice. When I scrolled through the Amazon reviews, they all seemed good. A few hours into chewing his new bone I heard a crunch and he had broken his tooth. Now he can't be off the leash and running with his friends AND he can't have hard chews until I get his tooth fixed!!! THANKS SO MUCH BENEBONE!!

My dog goes through elk antlers, Nylabones, Kong imitation antlers all with no problems. I have written their customer service - which also claims a money back guarantee - it's bad enough that during a pandemic and no work I now have to come up with several thousand dollars to have his tooth fixed, but to have to pay for the bone that caused the problem is just insulting. What's worse is that now all of a sudden there are more reviews displaying and the first one says not to buy, broken tooth, wish that had displayed when I first did my search!!

Not safe for heavy chewers!

Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2018

Flavor Name: REAL PeanutSize: LargeVerified Purchase

Although my dog loved chewing this I have to give it one star because it’s not safe for him to consume and it very sharp if you brush up against it once it’s been chewed on.
The description did advise to keep an eye on the dog to ensure they don’t eat it however it’s next to impossible to retrieve the piece they break off before it gets swallowed. My dog is a heavy chewer and broke a huge chunk off almost immediately and then swallowed it before we could take it away which caused a lot of concern. We were very lucky and it didn’t cause any medical problems but didn’t feel comfortable letting him have it.
If you have a light chewer or a dog that doesn’t destroy its toys than this might be an option for you. It justs wasn’t a good fit for our dog. He now only gets things that can be safely digested just in case he sneaks a big bite, which he always does.

Dogs love these, but beware.

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2016

Flavor Name: REAL BaconSize: MediumVerified Purchase

I have 3 dogs all of whom love these chew toys. However, vet has warned me about these because they are so hard that some dogs have broken teeth chewing on these. We had to take our Labradoodle to a canine dentist due to a broken fang. Upon examination, he found that she has several chipped teeth. We now must get her a root canal to repair and save her fang, an upper canine. He suggested replacing these toys with Kong items. However, none of my dogs has ever like the Kong toys no matter the shape or size. Just a warning.

Better than Nylabone.

Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2015

Flavor Name: REAL BaconSize: LargeVerified Purchase

For some reason, our golden-doodle prefers this over the traditional nylabone. Maybe it's the flavor or shape; he's had it a few months so "newness novelty" would have worn off by now.

It would be better if it didn't get all rough (see picture) and flake off little burrs of plastic that stick in socks and bare feet, but since big blocks of silicone don't satisfy chew cravings, and most other things are shredded in minutes, this is the best compromise I've found.

Update: after 6 months, he has really put a dent in it (second picture), but it continues to be a favorite.

choking hazard

Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2017

Flavor Name: REAL BaconSize: MediumVerified Purchase

Watch your pups very closely with this bone! My pup has had this less than a week and she's broken off several chunks big enough to worry me about her either choking or having a blockage if she swallowed them. She's a strong chewer, but has never had this problem with other brands of nylon bones. Those she whittles down over time, but the shards are tiny little scraps small enough for the vacuum to pick up or that safely pass through her system if she swallows them.

Durable, and apparently delicious - great for strong chewers

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2017

Flavor Name: REAL BaconSize: MediumVerified Purchase

Personally, I don't love it - but my dog does. God knows why, because it sure as hell does not taste like bacon.

...not that I've tried.

We have 4 or 5 in the house right now because it's the only toy he does not immediately destroy. It's a very hard plastic, so great for strong chewers. As it gets worn, the edges get really rough so definitely keep an eye on your dog and make sure they're not hurting themselves. The wishbone shape is cute, but it's also pretty easy for my dog to hold between his paws when he goes to town on it. He closes his eyes and gnaws on it so passionately that I get a little jealous because I don't think I have ever enjoyed chewing something as much as my dog enjoys chewing this (and let's be real, we have WAY better stuff to chew than they do.)

Good chewing toy for aggressive chewers

Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2021

Flavor Name: REAL BaconSize: MediumVerified Purchase

The media could not be loaded.

I had benebones before, and bought two of these medium sizes for our 15 months old English bulldog girl.
She loves the bacon flavor and I have a peanut butter for her after this one is finished.
She had it for a week and you can see the wear and tear on the video.
She torn her ACL so it is a good way to keep her occupied since she can't exercise or play as before.
I really like the brand. The others she had before this looked like a stick and she finished them rather quickly, I had to throw way the pieces that were left because they had about 2.5 inches, and her mouth is pretty big.
She had one for cleaning the teeth as well but that one was difficult for her to chew on, this format is perfect.

Great chew toy for an aggressive chewer.

Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2021

Flavor Name: REAL BaconSize: MediumVerified Purchase

The media could not be loaded.

I was looking for a chew toy that would last longer then a day. We have tried all sorts of toys, bones, balls and Kong toys. Normal toys don't last an hour. Cinder looses interest in rubber Kong toys or balls. The one thing that kept her interest and lasted was hooves. The problem with them is they smell.

Then we found this. She has been chewing on this one for a month and she has not given up on it or destroyed it. We found a winner!!!
