I need something for an intense chewer - YorkieTalk.com Forums

COOPERDUKE · 09-27-2007, 04:21 PM

My boy, Copper, is a major chewer...and I mean major. He has managed to rip or break apart all of his toys in one way or another....we have tried the kong, nylabones, etc and he seems to get through all of them. I was wondering if anyone has really tried a non-destructable toy and has been successful. We really need to find somethig that works as it gets expensive having to replace toys so often.....thanks for any and all suggestions.

Go to animalrevival.com and order C.E.T chews. they are dental chews, but it really keeps my bunch happy as well as keeping their teeth clean and healthy

I've got a chewer too, nothing lasts! Bully Sticks are the best, they take forever. I bought a 3 pack in july and i'm just now on the last one!!!

Molly just started bad chewing habit, she has chewed a corner of my wooden stand that was a gift from my sisters

they have several chew toys, I guess its the terrible 6mth phase, my sister told me to put deoderant on the wood to keep her away, anyone hear of that one before? I dont want to do it if she gets that yukkie taste in her mouth, bully sticks are great, but man do they stink

good luck to you

I've heard the bully sticks are good for chewers, and petedge.com has some items that are suppose to be hard to chew. You can ask them before you purchase an item exactly where it was made.

I have one also and the only thing that she can't chew up are the everlasting treat balls. A lot of people are afraid of them because they were made in China but Tricksie has been using them for a year.
Check out their web site, made me satisfied. www.triplecrowndogs.com/info/news.htm?story=46.

This is what an all natural bone looks like (http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96349)

This is the only thing I can recommend because I give Buddy
nothing that is ingestable. He is an aggressive chewer and has
been since I got him. This does it for him.

Sarge likes free stuff to chew on, toys...Not-so-much. I got him a set of cheap plastic shower rings and he LOVES them. I dangle them on his tail to tease him. haha. Inexpensive AND enjoyable. And they come in a pack of 12...thats long lasting.

Just be carefull that he does not chew and swallow little bits of plastic.
They can tear up the inside of his stomach and intestines just like
a nylabone can.

donnarod · 10-02-2007, 01:03 PM

I know that my yorkie would chew them up and swallow them in a minute.
Don't think that is a safe toy. Go to www.triplecrowndogs.com/info/news.htm?story=46. This is the only toy that Tricksie can not eat.

Yorkiedaze · 10-02-2007, 01:36 PM

Ok you guys.............for all that have hard-core chewers then I have the perfect answer for you. A toy they CANNOT chew up.........promise!! I get this toy for my sons big dog, Seamus, every Christmas. He never can chew them up, but he manages to lose them outside sometime.

Here is his picture, and also the Petedge site to buy this or you can get it at Petsmart and Petco.

I forgot to mention..........get the durable, NOT the flexible.

SgtPeppersMommy · 10-02-2007, 01:53 PM

I suppose Sarge isn't a "intense chewer" yet, in fact, I don't think he has destroyed anything yet... Maybe he's too young (10 weeks)? Or maybe I got lucky...

He is young but sure hope you are lucky.
Tricksi has destroyed all of my bedskirts, sheets, pillows etc. She is a year now and starting to get better.
