Looking For A More Satisfying Chew? Inside Nylabone's New Chew Toy Collection Made with Real Meat


In this article
Chewing is simply part of being a dog. Whether it’s a young puppy trying out those pointy, new teeth on the corner of the couch, a teenage pooch chewing on shoes to relieve boredom, or an older dog deciding their toys just aren’t cutting it anymore, dogs of all shapes and sizes like to chew.
When your dog chews the right things, it helps stimulate their brain, relieves anxiety, and can even support dental health.
But if you’re struggling to find the “right things” that your dog actually enjoys chewing, you aren’t alone. With their new range of chew toys made with real meat, Nylabone might have the solution.

The Problem with Most Dog Chews
Most appropriate chew options fall into one of two categories, each with its own distinctive downsides.
The first category is chews that dogs love to chew! The mouth-watering, often very stinky, great-tasting chews like bully sticks, dried tendons, and smoked bones. These chews appeal to your dog’s instinct toward chewing on yummy things. The downside? They usually don’t last very long. And the few that do, like smoked bones, can be dangerous, with brittle shards that can get stuck in your dog’s throat.
The second category of chews is the long-lasting variety. These are the traditional Nylabone chews, the rubber toys, and the otherwise less-destructible options. These are a great choice for dogs who love to chew for the sake of chewing. But for pups who want more from their chewing experience, these can be boring, leading to problematic chewing of things they find more enticing.


What Makes Nylabone’s New Collection Different
Nylabone’s new collection of chew toys combines the best of both worlds. These new chews are super long-lasting, as you would expect from Nylabone, but they’re also super tasty.
Infused with Real Flavors That Dogs Love
Nylabone’s new chew toys are made with real bacon, bison, venison, chicken, and beef. These tasty flavors appeal to a dog’s natural instinct to seek out real meat.
For dogs who like to chew but find typical chew toys unsatisfying, these toys add a whole new dimension. Not only do they feel good to chew, but they also taste amazing (at least, if you’re a dog).
Long-Lasting
Unlike classic tasty chews, these Nylabone chew toys last! Like many Nylabone products, they’re made with tough, long-lasting material designed to challenge dogs with strong chewing styles.
This means that dogs get a satisfying chewing experience with all the yummy flavors, while pet parents get the durability they expect from Nylabone.
Supports Dental Health
These new Nylabone toys are a great way to keep your problematic chewer focused on things that are meant to be chewed on. Not only does this save your furniture and shoes, but it provides a healthy outlet for boredom and anxiety with the added benefit of supporting dental health.
The chewing action helps keep teeth clean by preventing plaque and tartar buildup. They're not a replacement for brushing, but they can be a valuable – and enjoyable – way to support your dog’s dental health.
Proudly Made In the USA
Like most trusted Nylabone products, this new collection is proudly made in the USA, manufactured in their New Jersey facility in Neptune City.

Can Nylabone chew toys help with destructive chewing?
