we give all our dogs huge bones , however when the dogs are in the house they arent allowed the bones in, sometimes a bitch maybe in the house for a while expecting puppies and a normal "chew" wont last 5 mins !!!
sooooooo we were kindly given by Bebe a deer antler to try and what a hit!!! ok dexter runs about with it looking like a rhino sometimes but they are clean dont smell and arent bloody!!!
heres the bones they normally eat.... look at the bags full of bones in the background aswell..... not what i want in the house!!!
this is a much cleaner chew for in the house! ........... and in the summer i dont expect it will atract flies

PS : NO deers are hurt in the shedding or the antlers.........
