The Benebone Wishbone Durable Dog Chew Toy has been a lifesaver in our household! My oversized Blue Heeler dog, Harvey, is a determined chewer who’s been known to destroy toys in minutes, but this wishbone chew has finally met its match. Not only has it withstood his powerful jaws, but it’s also kept him entertained for hours on end. The unique wishbone shape is brilliant—it gives Harvey multiple grip options so he can easily hold it steady while chewing. The design seems to encourage natural chewing angles, which is both engaging for him and ergonomically smart. He’s also obsessed with the bacon flavor, and it’s clear from his excitement every time I hand it to him that it’s a winner. Durability is where this toy truly shines. It’s been weeks, and the Benebone shows very little wear despite near-daily chewing sessions. Unlike softer toys that leave behind shreds of material, this one is tough without being too hard on Harvey’s teeth. I also love that it’s made in the USA, which gives me extra peace of mind about the quality and safety of the materials. One unexpected bonus is how much calmer Harvey has been since getting this chew toy. It keeps him busy, provides a great outlet for his energy, and helps maintain his dental health by scraping off plaque as he chews. The only thing to keep in mind is to always supervise your pup while they chew and replace the toy when it starts showing significant wear. But overall, this is hands down one of the best investments I’ve made for Harvey’s happiness and wellbeing. If you’ve got an aggressive chewer at home, I highly recommend giving this wishbone a try—it’s a total game-changer!

My Catahoula, Sancho, is a heavy chewer, and this bone is only halfway gone after two months. He spends more than half the day chewing on this thing, and it has held up incredibly well. I put this on auto-delivery because he is so high-energy, and these bones keep him occupied for hours. It’s tough enough to handle constant chewing, and he absolutely loves it. If you have a powerful chewer who goes through toys quickly, this is definitely worth it. Long-lasting, durable, and keeps dogs entertained, it’s a must-have for any high-energy pup.

These chews are the best! I have tried hooves and antlers and bones but these are by far the dogs’ favorite. My dogs chew and chew while I enjoy my coffee every morning. Dogs are 25 and 35 pounds and the medium is perfect. They like the bacon flavor best. They do need to be replaced regularly (see instructions) but they last about two months.

***EDIT 3: I have upgraded this to four stars. I received two replacement JUMBO bones after the one I purchased broke off almost instantly. I think that product had a defect in it, which is a little dangerous because it broke into a piece that could be swallowed. HOWEVER, the two replacement bones have been excellent. One got chewed up first, and it did slowly whittle away, but it did not break into any dangerous pieces and it did not get sharp. My puppy loved it! The second bone she has had a little more trouble chewing away, and it still gets her attention after months of hard chewing. Which makes me think that the bones have different hardness levels in the batches they are made, but that is just speculation. Regardless, the bone is great and does does not break into little pieces which could be choking hazards, and it does not get sharp. Great product, a little inconsistent in batches maybe, but it will get your dog's attention, provide hours of chewing, and the scent does not get on the carpet like other chew toys or bones. Good purchase! ***Edit 1: Benebone contacted me almost immediately and offered a replacement of the larger size. Their customer service representative has been friendly and I forwarded my contact information through their website for the replacement. I will update when I receive the new product and my experience.*** ***Edit 2: When I contacted Benebone's customer service to provide my address, they immediately responded in approximately an hour. In fact, they already sent and I received not one replacement, but TWO replacement bones and a nice handwritten note. I have attached a photo below proving it. The replacements were the LARGER, upgraded sizes too! I have upgraded this review to 3 Stars premised on the sincere and strong customer service they have shown me. THIS COMPANY STANDS BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. For that, I think it is just to upgrade my 2 star review to 3 stars. I still stand by what I had said below regarding the smaller size, but so far my puppy LOVES the JUMBO Benebone and I will surely review the JUMBO in two weeks to see how it holds up. So far, the JUMBO is 5 STARS for sure; it has held up much better than the other chew toy, despite my puppy's intense chewing on this bone (it smells much stronger than the little bone and the flavor must be super intense for her). Despite this intense chewing, the bone has taken very little damage from her--it is holding up much better. ADVICE: Do not go by the weight recommendations and size. If your puppy/dog prefers to chew on hard bones, just get the largest size for 100 lb dogs. If your puppy chews on hard bones once in awhile but not really, then you can go for the size for 70 lb dogs. I still think the 70 lb Benebone I got had a defect which resulted in one branch completely falling off immediately--the other two branches are solid despite heavy chewing--but this new JUMBO bone is amazing! ***Original Review*** - 2 Stars I purchased this for my 45 lb, 8 month old pit bull/shepherd mix. It is a good idea and design, but one whole end was destroyed in no time. Perhaps I got a defective one with an air bubble or crack, as you can see from the photo below that one end completely broke off/wore down but the other two ends are barely damaged despite my puppy's chewing. Regardless, I feel a little mislead that it was rated for dogs up to 70 lbs and, while the packaging warns you that this is just an estimate, one who anticipate that it would last longer than a week for a puppy 25 lbs lighter than the estimate. Nylabones and elk antlers lasted much longer than this did and my puppy seriously chews on the elk antlers quite intensely. As way of some background, my puppy has a lot of chew toys ranging from bones, rawhide, ropes, stuffed animals, nylabones, and rubber balls. She certainly spent a lot of attention on this toy the last week, but it wasn't exclusive and her chewing was shared with some of her other staples. I like that this toy has bacon mixed in with it. If you smell the toy, particularly where your dog has been chewing, you can kind of smell a meaty aroma. It does not get on the rug or rub off, and it is a faint smell, but on the chewed parts you can smell something. It is not noticeable when you are sitting next to your dog/puppy and the toy, or near the toy; it is only when you pick up the toy and put it right to your nose. I can only imagine what this smells like to dogs with their super sense of smell! I also can't argue with the design/shape of the toy--it's perfect! The curve of the toy is great, as she can scoop it up or put pressure on one end to elevate the opposite end to chew on it. But I just can't get over how quickly that one end came off. I got it about two weeks ago and I gave it to her last week (I slowly introduce new toys to keep her occupied and her mind stimulated). Compared to other chew toys--including nylabone and elk antlers--this toy wore down much quicker. In fact, the nylabone she has had for much longer, the puppy nylabones nonetheless, have outlasted this toy and the nylabone has been around since we first took her home at 2 months. She has also had an elk antler which has also lasted much longer and she REALLY goes after that one. I have attached a photo below of my puppy and the damage to the bone. For the cost, which is about the same as a nylabone, I would have wished it lasted much longer than it did--which is why I got it in the first place as opposed to another nylabone. I would be happy if it lasted a few months, which is what I would guess to be its normal lifespan. I would not classify my puppy as a big chewer either. She certainly chews and can do damage to hard bones or chew toys, but she is by no means a destroyer--she does not even shred her stuffed animals and has executed only a few (some were not even dog chew toys but children's toys she was given to play with). This is the first hard toy she has destroyed where I had to take it away. CONCLUSION: Perhaps I got a Benebone that had a defect, or my puppy really just destroyed this one in a mere week, but I simply cannot recommend this version of the Benebone I got. I might try to get the jumbo Benebone or one rated higher for bigger dogs up to 100 lbs if they go on sale, but I don't think that my 8 month old puppy should warrant a toy for dogs up to 100 lbs when she has not destroyed any of her other toys like this one. It even takes her longer to go through some of the large rawhide toys she has!

I know the picture shows the fish one- I ended up ordering various kinds of these bones after my initial purchase and they are all fabulous!! I have an INCREDIBLY aggressive chewing puppy who absolutely shreds everything he gets. Decided to try these out and they last him WEEKS. He happily chews on them for hours a day and I only replaced the first one because it eventually got fur chewed all into it and not because he broke it or finished it. Best chew I've found so far and I'll always keep backups on hand. No smell, no mess, no shredding it up in a day!

We adopted what I believe to be a husky mix. I would also assume by appearance that he has German shepherd mixed in. He chews on everything and I mean everything. These are great. He enjoys them and I am happy that he is not chewing on everything else. Depending on how often and for how long you allow your dog to chew on these they last quite a while. For Christmas we bought him the 4 pack. With our dog if we just leave the Benebone he will chew on it nonstop. So we have to take it away at some point. Overall, I am pleased with this purchase.

Love these , last a long time and safe on teeth

Minhas cachorras adoram!

Nossa cachorrinha adora!

2a vez q compro, meus labradores amam. O sabor q mais gostaram foi frango. Mas o brinquedo é MUITO duro, o cão tem q ter aquela mordida de tubarão, senão o dentinho pode quebrar. E ele não é indestrutível, eles vão roendo e aos poucos o brinquedo vai diminuindo. Portanto, tem q ter atenção nos pedacinhos q se soltam para q eles não engasguem.
