If Your Dog Can Rip The Hood Off Your Car--This Is The Dental Toy For Him/Her
I am always curious about buying the "number one best seller" that Amazon lists in any product category. And when it's an add-on item offered at a reasonable cost, I'm even more curious. From reading the reviews, it appears that some dog owners ordered this item and were disappointed in it for a number of reasons, primarily because the 'hardness' of the toy caused dental problems. Obviously no one wants to buy a dental toy that actually causes teeth problems. However, some small breed owners must not be aware that their particular breed is subject to dental issues regardless of what toys they chew. Just off the top of my head, this type of problem often occurs with Yorkies, Chihauhaus, and Chinese Cresteds. You can use virtually any dental care method in existence and still watch your Chinese Crested's teeth fall out. So small breeds shouldn't be given tough Nylabone toys like this Dinosaur model. If you watch any dog chew on this particular toy, you will quickly notice how small his/her teeth are in relation to the toy, and you will probably be surprised by the leverage and power he/she puts into each bite. They gnaw, they gnash, they continue to work at it until those tiny teeth lose the battle against the tough Nylabone. Comparing this to human teeth, everyone knows someone who fractures/cracks a tooth somehow. That's because our front "chicklet" teeth bite down on something hard, get broken from falling on your face, getting hit in the mouth, having teeth weakened by cavities, and from not seeing a dentist/hygienist on a regular basis--usually because we're afraid of a little pain. We're always looking for relatively tough dental toys for our 182 pound Cane Corso named Dante. He tears apart any toy we buy him, usually in a matter of minutes. But this particular Nylabone Dura Chew has survived for months now. If you look at the size of his teeth, length and thickness, you will see a dog with the teeth and jaw muscles strong enough to tear the hood off your car--which is exactly what he did to our Prius. So if your dog is capable of ripping hoods off cars, this treat should be good for your pet monster. Just keep an eye on the toy so that you can toss it before it breaks down and is swallowed.

Best Nylabone Fido & I Agree
My dogs love these Dino Nylabone's. Over the years I have bought at least 30 of these nylabones for 3 different dogs. Two of which have loved the Dino shaped Nylabones the best. The third loves the nylabone daily dental bone the best but the dino is a close second. The T-Rex is their favorite but they like all dino shapes. Depending on the dog's chewing mood these have lasted anywhere from a month to 6 months before needing replacing. My super chewing husky will chew one up pretty quickly in about a month, my moderate chewing pit bull would take 3-4 months and my slow light chewing shiba inu would take 6 or more months. I typically have 2-3 chewable items per dog (it helps prevent toy hoarding and aggression) and these dino toys are always among the favorites. *These are chewing style nylabones they are not supposed to be consumed quickly as a snack or treat. I consider these like a hobby or activity for my dogs to do not something they eat or a toy they play with. Chewing is a natural part of dog behavior and is good for dental hygiene. Giving your dog items they are supposed to chew on is a good way to prevent your dog from chewing on things he isn't supposed to.* These are the white nylabone material which is a tougher material than the beige color nylabones. The white nylabones should be used for aggressive chewers. Beige nylabones are good for light chewers. The T-Rex is about 6" by 5" the Long neck is about 3.5" by 7 inches and the Stegosaurus is about 6.5" by 4" they all seem to last about the same amount of time. I can usually get them for $4-5 on amazon which makes them one of the best deals for a chewing nylabone which is another huge plus. Overall My dogs and I love the Dino Nylabones and I will buy them as long as they are made. Great Product

Dog loves it and it's very durable, but not indestructible
I have a dog with very strong jaws. She's only thirty-five pounds but she goes through most toys like they're bubblegum. Even as a small puppy, she would destroy anything and everything. By the age of five or six months we had to give up on soft and rope toys altogether, and at a year old, she is limited to only hard chews like Kong, Nylabone, etc. Even then, she destroys most of these with relative ease. She's gone through chews others have recommended as long-lasting in literally ten minutes. The only toy she has that has lasted more than a month or so is her original red Kong, which she mostly licks instead of chews. I initially bought the dinosaur for my other, less toy-murderous dog, but the power chewer quickly stole it from him. She was in love. She carried it everywhere and chewed on it constantly. I'm not sure if it's the shape or the texture she likes, or some combination thereof, but whatever the case, it instantly became her favorite. Even the most durable hard toys normally only last a few weeks with her, but her dino is going on two or three months now. It's chewed beyond recognition, all the nubs worn down, and it's very rapidly nearing the end of its life because little bits of plastic are falling off, but it still lasted far longer than most toys do. A few weeks ago I bought her a second one, in a different shape, and she's equally as enamored with it. All in all, it's not going to be indestructible if you have a power chewer, but it certainly lasts a heck of a lot longer than most!
