Quick Overview

A long lasting natural dog chew - ideal for strong powerful chewers such as terriers, mastiffs, and dogs with high levels of adrenaline which cause a build-up of tension in their jaws. These extra strong chews can withstand these powerful chewers and help to lower stress and adrenaline levels in a positive tasty and natural way.

Stagbars are not really suitable for dogs with "soft mouths" who find hard chew items too daunting to even attempt to chew. We suggest that those types of dogs be given rawhide chews instead.

However, if you have a dog that chews "everything in sight" and looks on the experience as a challenge as to how quickly it can destroy a toy or dog chew - then this is the ideal chew to give them! :-)

CHEW SCALE - 10/10

Size (see Product Description for safety information)
Stagbars are pieces of antlers from British deer, each one is unique in exact size and weight when it is sawn (product images demonstrate the natural variations in size within each size category). This makes it difficult to give exact lengths and weights. However, here is an approximation -

SMALL
Over 50 gm in weight; approx 11 cm x 1- 2 cm
Only suitable for very tiny toy breeds of dogs (e.g. Teacup sized Yorkshire Terriers) - bigger sized dogs would choke on these tiny bits of antler

MEDIUM
Over 75 gm in weight; approx 11cm x 2 - 3 cm
Only suitable for small terriers (e.g. Patterdales, Medium sized Yorkshire Terriers, Border Terriers, Jack Russell Terriers, etc)

LARGE
Over 150 gm in weight; approx 20 cm, sometimes with a cross piece
Suitable for large terriers and medium to large size dogs

EXTRA LARGE
Over 225 gm in weight; approx 24 cm, sometimes with a cross piece
Suitable for extra powerful chewing dogs, large and giant breeds

Product Description

Stagbars last longer than any other dog chews on the market – longer than rawhide chews or compacted vegetable starch chews and are particularly suitable for dogs who are destructive chewers due to high levels of adrenaline. Stagbars wear down slowly with the grinding action of the dog’s teeth and saliva, into tasty morsels. Eventually, the dry marrow is exposed as a lovely treat when the outside has been worn away.

Stagbars are safe, won’t splinter or chip or cause blockages and they don’t contain nylon like some long lasting chews. They are not an ‘empty’ chew like rawhide and in fact, contain important minerals.

They clean the dog’s teeth, rather than bung them up like some dog chews and they’re great for dogs with sensitive tummies. Even dogs who are losing weight can enjoy Stagbars because they only contain a tiny amount of fat. Naturally, they don’t contain additives or preservatives.

Stagbars are clean dog chews, leaving no stain or mess on the carpet and they are also very low in odour – some say they have a very faint smell of fresh soil. They are effectively ‘raw’ and so retain all their goodness and safety.

SIZE GUIDE


Because it is a natural product and impossible to achieve uniformity in each size category, there are many occasions that a medium will look longer (and thinner) than a large which might be fatter and shorter. However, it is the weight that decides the category, not the length or girth.

Just like with any chew, buying the right size for your dog is important. For example, whilst a toy dog could take on an extra large Stagbar, it would serve no benefit at all and would be quite overwhelming for the dog. Likewise, a giant breed should not be given a small Stagbar.

In the very unlikely event that your dog isn't interested in chewing the Stagbar, try rubbing it with sandpaper or a nail file. If your dog still isn't interested in it, try smearing on a small amount of peanut butter or honey, or soaking it overnight in water in the refrigerator. Remember, Stagbars are incredibly long-lasting so you may find your dog leaves and goes back to the antler chew many times before it’s finished.

SAFETY


Make sure your dog is gnawing on the antler chew and not trying to break it in half. Don’t hold the antler chew for him as this may cause him to bear down on it. Leave it for him to work out how to enjoy it. Please don’t leave Stagbars outside in the elements, where other creatures can get to them, to safeguard your dog’s health.

Like any dog chew, the following is very important: To avoid a choking risk, take the Stagbar away from your dog once it gets worn down to a small enough size that your dog could easily swallow. Always supervise your dog when chewing the Stagbar.
