OH! I should clarify that the Nylabones that
my dogs manage to chew up are the ones for "moderate chewers" - they're somewhat bendable and flexible (i.e. has some bounce in it when dropped on the ground). Mine don't like the Nylabones for "powerful chewers" because they're too hard (i.e. kind of drop like a hard rock on the ground). But because they managed to chew up those softer ones, they don't last more than one day - so ends up being kind of too expensive to keep buying them.
Shicks, has Ruger tried the Kong products? They've lasted since day one for us. Also, a few months ago, I bought a new product by a brand called Beco (
Beco – FETCH | Beco Pets). It's been holding up pretty well (not chewed up / destroyed at all!) and I like that they're made with natural rice husk rubber and naturally dyed, supposedly better than the other rubber out there. There's another toy that has held up pretty well too, but I can't remember the brand at the moment.. will get back to you
