ARE NYLON TASTYBONES STRONG ENOUGH FOR ALL DOGS?

Yes, our Nylon range is suitable for all dogs, no matter what their jaw strength. It is the responsibility of the dog owner to ensure that they choose the right sized chew for their dog. Owners should choose a product larger than their dog’s mouth. Once a TastyBone becomes smaller than a dog’s mouth it should be removed and disposed of.

CAN TASTYBONES BE CLEANED?

Yes, Nylon and Dental TastyBones can be cleaned using tepid water. The Gourmet Edible bones should only be cleaned using a damp cloth.

WHERE CAN I FIND TASTYBONES?

We have a number of stockists throughout the world, check out our stockist page or contact us to find a stockist near you. Mighty TastyBones should be placed within the toy section of your store.

HOW LONG WILL A GOURMET BONE LAST?

Our Gourmet bones are edible products designed for small dogs and ideal for soft chewers. They could last as little as 10 minutes or as long as a few days, depending on your dog’s chewing strength and attraction to the bone.  

WHAT IS STARCH-BASED BIOPOLYMER?

A natural based polymer made from a percentage of starch and a low density polyethylene.

WHICH TASTYBONE IS RECOMMENDED FOR SOFT CHEWERS?

Our Flexible TastyBones are recommended for light chewers, puppies and senior dogs. Its soft, pliable material can prevent damage to the dog’s teeth. Our Edible TastyBone is also designed as a tasty treat for small dogs and soft chewers.

HOW DOES A DENTAL BONE IMPROVE A DOG’S ORAL HEALTH?

The Dental bones are designed with unique ridges and nodules to help massage the gums, increase saliva and break down plaque, preventing the build-up of tartar. When the dog bites the bone, it will create grooves and ridges in the bone which scrape the teeth, having a cleansing effect. The minty flavours also help to banish dog breath!  

IS IT NORMAL FOR MY DOG’S GUMS TO BLEED WHEN CHEWING ON A NYLON OR DENTAL BONE?

Yes, in some cases bleeding may occur. Like humans, dogs gums will bleed if there is a build-up of tartar on the teeth. Bleeding will reduce the more the bone is chewed, and oral gum hygiene improves. Should you be concerned please contact your vet.

WILL TASTYBONE REDUCE IN SIZE?

Yes, over a period the bone will reduce in size. As a dog chews the Nylon bones, small rice sized pieces will naturally shave off. These pieces are completely safe for dogs to ingest and will pass through their system without causing harm. If and when the bone becomes smaller than the dog’s mouth it should be removed immediately and disposed of. The Gourmet bone is edible and will therefore naturally reduce in size when the dog bites and chews it. Dogs should always be supervised when enjoying any TastyBone.

MY DOG’S POO HAS CHANGED COLOUR, IS THIS NORMAL?

Yes, when the dog is chewing on the TastyBone products, small shavings will pass through the digestive system and will re-appear when the dog next poos.

WHAT IF MY DOG IS OVERWEIGHT?

TastyBones are perfect for dogs that need to lose weight. They are made from 100% nylon, human grade synthetic flavouring made out of herbs, spices and vegetable dye, meaning they contain zero calories.

WHAT IF MY DOG GETS BORED OF ITS TASTYBONE?

All of our bones have flavouring that will last the life of the bone. The flavour and smell of our bones are not always detectable to humans, and it is the saliva in a dog’s mouth which helps to bring out the flavour. Sometimes a dog may not show interest in the bones or a particular flavour. Many customers have left the bone around the house and found that the dog has suddenly later decided that it is interested. Dogs are ruled by their noses, so a suggestion to bring out the smell of the bone is to pop it into a bowl of warm water to reactivate the smell.

WHY DOES TASTYBONE NOT HAVE A BEST BEFORE DATE?

The materials used in TastyBones are non-biodegradable, meaning they will not degrade over a reasonable amount of time (approximately 15 years).

WHAT IF MY DOG HAS AN ALLERGY

TastyBones are perfect for dogs with allergies as there is no wheat, dairy, additives or meat. The flavours of the bone are made from 100% herbs and spices.
