Advantages: Apparently tasty, doesn't smell

Disadvantages: My dog still destroyed it

Nylabone

~What are they~
Durable hard wearing bones for the heavy chewer, supposedly for dogs, who crunch, munch and lunch on everything else and destroy it.

~Is it any good~
Well I can only speak from personal experience, I bought one for my Staff, I had previously tried other hard Nylabones and my Staffy had loved them for about half an hour, then she destroyed them and ate them up in large chunks. I worried for a while they she may be unable to digest huge chunks of Nylabone, especially since they warn they are not to be consumed. But she seemed fine, so I tried this one, apparently even stronger.
Dot (my dog) liked the taste, and initially tried to give it to Conan (my rabbit) who wasn't much interested in that sort of thing to Dot's dismay, after realizing Conan didn't want it, Dot tried to bury it in my Potato patch, whence duly told off for such behaviour she settled down to actually eat it.
It lasted longer than ½ an hour; it lasted about 3 weeks before she had bitten the end of and, yes, consumed it again.

Considering the price of Nylabone is rather high, I don't think 3 weeks munching is sufficient for the price. Better to buy her (or get free) a huge bone and let her gnaw on that for a while, she likes them more anyway.

~In conclusion~
Not for Dot (or Conan) but for some dogs, who didn't have a vice like jaw, it might be handy, maybe I should have bought a bigger one, who knows?

Summary: Better than most normal chews
