the Orbee-Tuff® chew-o-meter

Explaining the science of a good chew. The key to buying the most durable Orbee-Tuff® toys for your dog is understanding three things:
  1. The mechanics of a dog's jaw
  2. The physics of size & shape
  3. Your dog's chewing habits.
Anything becomes more susceptible when it's able to reach the back of a dog's jaw. That's where they do all their hard-core chewing. But give a dog the appropriately-sized, round, hollow ball made of super-durable Orbee-Tuff® and they can chew for hours - because they cannot get it to the back of their jaws. If you have a very aggressive chewer (chews through tires, deck-posts and bricks - all of which we have heard) stick with the perfectly round shaped toys!

Be sure to buy appropriately-sized toys for your dog! Not only will this ensure a longer-lasting toy, but it will keep your buddy safe from potential choking. Remember to always supervise your dogs play and immediately remove any toys at the first sign of damage.
