SAFE DOG CHEWS, HAPPY DOGS

Elk antlers for dogs are already safer than bones due to their natural resistance to splintering. This also makes the elk antler sheds more palatable for dogs to chew, so you can both be happy with your healthy dog chew choice.

CHOOSING SPLIT VS. WHOLE ELK ANTLER DOG CHEWS

While there’s no wrong choice between a split or whole antler dog chew, most dogs chew to reach the tasty marrow inside. A split elk antler with the marrow exposed is our "easiest" chew, still tough but slightly softer than deer and reindeer antler chews. This makes split antlers best if your pup is more of a novice or occasional gnawer than a determined chomper. If your dog is a power chewer, whole antler sheds for dogs offer a tough, longer-lasting challenge that your chewing champion will go crazy for. Check out our other types of dog chews for more size and style options.

Offering split antlers with exposed marrow or whole antler sheds for even more durability, our assortment of dog elk antlers are naturally splinter-resistant, rich in essential nutrients, and odor- and allergen-free. Long-lasting and no-mess, these healthy and safe dog chews offer mental and physical stimulation as they safely satisfy the canine need to gnaw!

Regularly inspect the antler chews and replace if there are signs of excessive wear, breakage or splintering.

Discard an antler chew before it reaches a size that can become a choking hazard.

Puppies should not be given antler chews until their milk teeth have fallen out, usually after six months of age.

ARE ANTLERS SAFE FOR DOGS TO CHEW?

Unlike bones, our organic antler sheds for dogs are naturally splinter-resistant, long-lasting and durable, able to withstand even aggressive chewing by powerful canine jaws.

• Elk antler chews = tough

• Deer antler chews = tougher

• Reindeer antler chews = toughest

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHOLE AND SPLIT ANTLER CHEWS?

Whole antler sheds for dogs are intact antlers that have been cut at the ends to create different lengths that are appropriate for various dog sizes, then smoothed and honed to be safe for chewing. Split antlers for dogs are whole antlers that have been literally split in half lengthwise to expose the marrow in the middle. Spilt antlers of any type are long-lasting dog chews but slightly less durable than whole versions of the same antler type.
