| deer antlers? I was in the pet store yesterday and I saw some deer antlers. It said that dogs love them. Has anyone given their dog these? If so did they like it?

| Antlers are great! Some dogs love them some don’t. Lola prefers the antlers that come split in half...easy access to the morrow inside. They also last for a very long time....great for BIG chewers

| We have used antlers. At first, Barney and Teddy both really loved them. Now, they have no interest at all. Daisy does not chew because she is afraid of Barney. I had hoped she would but it was a no go.

| I have wondered about these too. We actually have antlers laying around our house that we find on my parent's land and my dogs don't touch them. Maybe they would if they were cut or split.

| It's supposed to be packed w/vitamins & minerals. Maybe I'll try the split ones, they don't really gnaw on them anymore...where'd you get the split ones?

| I gave one to Teddi and she just walked away. They don't have any smell and just seem like a rock so I don't know why they would like them but she can't have any meat or anything so I thought I would try it...but it didn't work.
