PetSafe Busy Buddy Bristle Bone, Large, Helps Keep Your Dog's Teeth Clean, Long-Lasting Playtime

Provides lots of chew time with or without the treats. A little loud when it hits hardwood floors, but perfect as a treat/chew toy for the dog. Strong and durable.

First bought this toy in July 2022 and just bought a second in December 2022 due to the first one being destroyed and unusable. My malamute is a master at any chew toys. If it doesn’t have a yummy or edible piece to it she has no interest, which makes this toy perfect. Whether this toy actually cleans teeth, I'm unsure, however it does preoccupy her for 30-45 minutes and I'll take it! Most “long lasting” toys/chews last my malamute about 5-10 mins.The only reason I'm giving a 9/10 is because after 4 months the plastic bristles and purple rubberized spikes start to fall off and I'm certain my dog has consumed them. I’m more concerned about her consuming plastic than the fact this toy inevitably falls apart. Which is expected when an animal consistently chews something, of course it will begin to break apart.My only feedback for the company is potential swapping the plastic for an alternative? If the toy is bound to break, minus we’ll make it something that’s edible/not toxic.

I’ve bought 5 of these so far. My dog loves them. They’re good for power chewers and they clean teeth. The inside can get a little gross but it keeps her occupied for a LONG time. The replacement disks also last a while since I only give them to her as a treat. She likes the bone even without them, sometimes even sleeps with it.Only downside is the bristles fall off and I have to pick them up from where she’s chewing. I’m honestly a little worried about her swallowing them but they’re so small I assume they’d just pass through without any harm. I’ve started to fill the disks a little more sparingly out of caution but she loves this thing.

This was a replacement for a seven year old tool

Update: Sadie still loves the bone, but I am getting tired of having the rubber rings wear out. I wouldn't mind except that I have to buy two bones for $32 to get four rubber rings. I throw out the bristle rings (see original review) and the hard plastic parts never wear out. I would rate this 5 stars if they would sell replacement rings at a reasonable price and get rid of the bristle rings. Especially infuriating when you consider how much they must make off the treat rings - they could make money giving the bones away for free.Original: Some of the reviews express concern about the bristles coming out of the brush ring and causing injury when the dog ingests them. I gave one of these bones to our dog and she absolutely loved it - with or without the treat ring. But after a while (and a lot of chewing) I did notice the bristle loss and that was concerning to me as well. The rest of the toy had held up remarkably well. The bone ends were well chewed but still usable. The rubber nub rings were missing a few nubs but otherwise OK. So I bought a second bone and substituted the new rubber nub rings for the worn out brush rings. Still works great with or without a treat ring and it has held up for over a year. So I can recommend it if you buy two and throw our the brush rings. It is still a good value when you consider how durable it is and how much the dog loves it.

Just one day in use, my dogs were just playing with the toys, it was enough just one hit the floor for the toy to brake apart. It not just dismantled but the internal part that makes the toy assembled ended broken. It happened with the two of them that I bought, one for each of my dogs. It is to weak and unsafe, I had to run to pick the parts since they are not too big as not be a hazard if they get it into their mounts. I don’t like to live bad reviews but honestly this toy needs to be fixed internally to make it more durable and secure.

Our dogs FAVORITE chewing toy, with AND without treats! Photos show about 4 weeks wear under regular daily use. Other reviews mention the bristles and plastic studs breaking off, and the purple nubs do get a workout & break with normal use, but I haven’t had any bristles fall out on any of the ones we’ve gotten. Our dog also won’t eat the nubs after they fall off, so I guess we are lucky. It’s easy to tell when it’s getting towards the end of its use. We replace it monthly, (subscribe & save item) and I would recommend that if you have an aggressive or constant chewer - it will wear out with use, and they don’t sell the plastic nubby part as a replacement piece. Which they should! It’s the part that wears out fastest. The ‘bone’ part does get a workout too, but it’s very durable.At least for our 10mo old puppy - about 50lbs now, German Shepherd - it’s been a great purchase, durable & very entertaining as well as good for ‘brushing’ her teeth. I haven’t had any problems with them, and we’ve gotten 3 so far. You WILL want to replace it, but I feel it’s totally worth the money for the entertainment it provides.

I’ve bought this product multiple times because my dog absolutely loves it! They are durable (last a couple years for my medium sized dog), the treat rings are awesome and affordable and it cleans your dog’s teeth. Our vet said her teeth look great for her age and I fully attribute that to this product since it’s the only teeth cleaning toy she has and we don’t actually brush her teeth. We love this product and we love this brand

MI perro esta fascinado con su nuevo juguete, llego rápido, con su empaque original, los "bocadillos" que incluye tienen caducidad larga y se ve muy durable para la intensidad de mi perro (cruza de pitbull)

The treats are past the best before date, not sure if I should still give them to my dog.

Although our dog loves to chew on this item, some of the little purple parts were bitten off on the first day. The brush parts also come off easily. The hardest part is getting the treat out which keeps my dog busy but unless I unscrew the toy a little the treat can't be eaten and just gets gooey. I would return it but it is ineligible for return. So overall not happy.
