Description

Spizzles Elk Antler Dog Chews are naturally shed, incredibly nutritious chews that provide a safe and long-lasting chew experience that your pooch won't soon forget!

These appetizing antlers are the ideal alternative to difficult-to-digest rawhide treats and potentially perilous animal bones.

Each antler is packed with protein, calcium, and phosphorus to keep your pet's bones, blood, nerves, and muscles healthy. Spizzles Elk Antler Dog Chews are available in two styles to offer two unique chewing experiences that are perfect for any dog.

"Split" antlers are center-cut to create a softer chew for times your dog is seeking a more malleable treat. For more fervid chew sessions, "Solid" antlers offer a tough texture that is sure to stand the test of time. Both types of chews are available in a variety of sizes to accommodate any dog. Order this unbeatable chew treat for your dear dog today!

Key Features:
  • Rich in calcium, protein, and other nutrients your dog needs to stay healthy
  • 2.4 times as tough as regular "wet bones"
  • Grade A antlers found naturally shed in the United States and Canada

Useful Information

With the exception of reindeer and caribou, antlers are found solely on males. Antlers are made of bone and sprout from the pedicle, a point just above their skulls. They are thought to help with foraging, combat, and courtship displays.

Testosterone in bucks initiates antler growth. While growing, a fuzzy skin called velvet covers the antlers, which is sensitive to the touch and rich in blood vessels. This velvet helps supply the antlers with essential nutrients for rapid growth.

Finding antlers in the wild is rare. Antlers, once shed, don't last very long—because they are so full of nutrients, they are quickly eaten by rodents or other animals. Our Spizzles antlers are all Grade A (#1) antlers, meaning that they have been collected in the past year as fresh drop. This ensures that they maintain their brown color and consistency compared to Grades B (#2), C (#3), and Chalky.

Used in Medicine

Chinese medicine has been using powdered deer antlers for at least 2,000 years with the belief that they:

  • Nourish the Yin
  • Tonify the kidney
  • Invigorate the spleen
  • Strengthen bone and muscle
  • Promote blood flow

Western medicine is looking into medicinal benefits as well and has found:

  • Potential to aid in tissue regeneration through topical use
  • High nutrition values
  • Deer velvet contains Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1)

Antlers are not horns!

Fast-growing (2-3 cm per day!) Horns grow slowly, forming growth rings

Disappointed!
June 7, 2018
Beny, my 14 mo. Frenchie, an aggressive chewer needs whole elk antlers only. This was pictured as whole, but is split. The purchase was given away. Split antlers cause his gums to bleed and shred.

Merchant Response:Hi Josi, We are sorry about the picture. The SKU you have chosen was 'center-cut' so there is a worker who put the anter on a bandsaw and sent it through. Then, using a belt sander rounded the edges. Give us a call and we can see what we can do about it.

It's that simple. There are few things Sonny likes. This is one of them.

X-tra Large Disappointment!
December 26, 2015
I'd hate to see what the small size looks like, the Xtra large was 4.5", my pit will have a hard time holding it to chew. Very unhappy, I'll never order from entirelypets.com again.

I did not realize these were the half antlers-split down the middle, that was my error. I have corgis that love to chew..alot, I would recomend the full antlers, not the split, they splintered after the marrow was gone, not good for my dogs.

Decent size split antler for my 70 pound pittie mix who is a voracious chewer.

Good, but not as long lasting as Solid
September 3, 2015
My German Shepherd Dogs were instantly drawn to these centre cut antlers, and quickly chewed out the middle. They then lost interest. The solid chews keep their interest longer, but are not met with the same enthusiasm when first offered. A good product, with trade offs.
