We source naturally shed, Grade-A deer and elk antlers in the USA. Antlers are very hard chews, so choose by weight and chewing style, supervise every session, and ask your veterinarian if you are unsure.

Hours of Entertainment - Keeps Him Occupied for Hours!
“My puppy may be small but he is an aggressive chewer so I thought I'd get him an elk antler. Once I gave it to him, he is so happy! This thing will last months, I think. It keeps him occupied for hours!”

Perfect for Aggressive Chewers - Still Enjoying After 3 Months
“My doggie (aggressive chewer) is still enjoying the chew as much as day one after 3 months. I had reservations due to the price, but after spending a small fortune on bully sticks I decided to take the chance. So glad I did!”

Our Pup Loves!! He is Obsessed
“Our 11 month old dog absolutely loves this antler chew. He is obsessed. We gave it to him when the 4th of July fireworks started ramping up and it helped keep him busy and happy. He has chewed it basically every day since and it's clear this antler will last a very long time, despite his frequent and aggressive chewing!”

Great Value - You Cannot Get a Better Antler
“For the price, you cannot get a better antler than this one. I'm pleased with the sizes. They generally last 4-6 weeks, which is a win in my book. Both my pups need something that can last and last. The only problem is that I ordered only one last time. I needed to have ordered at least two!”

My Power Chewing, Destructive Frenchie LOVES These
"My power chewing, destructive doggie LOVES deer antlers. He can destroy an antler in a week's time, but doesn't bother me when the price of these are so reasonable. I appreciate the quality, no splintering, and not super stinky."
SaraVerified Customer
Held Up Phenomenally After Months of Use
"This was purchased in April. We're nearing the end of July and as you can see, it's held up phenomenally (even with the new puppy)! It has not splintered or cracked after months of use.
I would HIGHLY recommend this for chewers, big and small. I know you might be thinking "24 bucks for that!?" Let me tell you. It's worth double that."

Forever Entertainment - Keeps Her Very Entertained
"My dog loves chew toys, but she usually destroys anything within a day or so. She is really intrigued by this antler and loves to chew on it for hours, and it's impossible for her to destroy. There is some marrow that keeps her very entertained. Definitely a good find!"
Lisa M.Verified Customer
She Loved It! She Absolutely Loves It
"We currently have a 6 month old puppy who loves to chew and attack with her mouth. We've found it difficult to find things that keep her occupied.
When I first gave it to her she chewed on it for at least 20 minutes before getting distracted. She loves the inside of it and I'm just happy my hands aren't her favorite chew toy anymore."
Shayna BrownVerified Customer
Worth It - We're Going on Months with These!
"For heavy chewers, which my two small pups are! These are FANTASTIC.
They don't split or flake and they last a super long time. Worth it that they aren't toys that last for less than a few days. We're going on months with these bad boys!!"

FAQs
Bucks drop their antlers each winter in a process called shedding. Horns, however, begin growing at birth and never get shed. Bucks start shedding their antlers as daylight decreases and testosterone levels decline, which causes antlers to drop from late December through March in most areas.
Use body weight as the starting point: Small for 5-25 lb, Medium for 25-45 lb, Large for 45-65 lb, Extra Large for 65-85 lb, and Giant for 85+ lb. Chewing style also matters; size up for forceful chewers and choose a piece too large to swallow.
Antlers are very hard and can fracture teeth. Swallowed pieces can also cause choking or gastrointestinal obstruction. Heartland does not recommend antlers for puppies with developing teeth, senior dogs with worn teeth, dogs with existing dental damage or a prior tooth fracture, or dogs that bite down forcefully with their back teeth.
There is no guaranteed lifespan. Wear varies with the antler, its size, and your dog's chewing style. Retire it when it becomes small enough to fit fully in the mouth, develops a crack or sharp edge, becomes loose, or sheds pieces your dog is swallowing.
Breed alone does not determine whether an antler is suitable. Heartland does not recommend antlers for puppies with developing teeth, senior dogs with worn teeth, dogs with existing dental damage or a prior tooth fracture, or dogs that bite down forcefully with their back teeth. Ask your veterinarian if you are unsure.
