Choosing the Right Antler Chew for Your Dog

Selecting the perfect antler chew for your furry friend involves considering several factors:

Key Factors for Choosing Antler Chews

  • Dog's Size and Weight: Dogs can be categorized into five weight groups, from toy (under 20 pounds) to giant (over 80 pounds).
  • Chewing Habits: 70% of dog owners report destructive chewing behavior, often linked to anxiety or boredom.
  • Previous Experience: Dogs with prior chew experience tend to prefer harder, more durable chews.
  • Dental Health: 80% of dogs show signs of dental disease by age three; chewing on hard objects can help reduce tartar buildup.
  • Age of the Dog: Puppies under six months are more likely to engage in destructive chewing due to teething, while senior dogs may require softer chews.

It's always best to start with a size appropriate for your dog's weight and monitor their chewing behavior. If you're unsure, consult with your veterinarian or reach out to Heartland Antlers for guidance.
