The Benefits
Sustainable Sourcing
Straight from the temperate wilderness of New Zealand, deer antlers are naturally shed in the wild by deer. They're by-products of the venison trade – which is where we step in (because we never let a good thing go to waste).
Promotes Dental Health
Chowing down on an Antler for just thirty minutes a day can reduce the instances of plaque by a staggering 70%!
Long Lasting Chew
Depending on how your dog chews, you can consider antlers a household staple. This means virtually endless hours of mental and physical stimulation that keeps your dog's brain – and their teeth – far too occupied to feast on your furniture.

Are antlers safe for dogs?
This is an easy one – yes, they are! They're completely safe to chew on. Their unique size and shape might prove daunting initiatively, but we know doggos enjoy the challenge of navigating the chew. Read more about antlers over at our blog, Dog Talk.
Do antlers splinter?
Not necessarily. As a natural consumable, the way dogs consume or break down deer antlers can't always be predicted. A dog’s saliva may break antlers down into smaller pieces, but in general, it's totally normal for some antlers to break down in bigger chunks than others. As with every treat you give your dog, practice responsible dog ownership: maintain supervision and limit treat time to 30 minutes a day. If you’re concerned with any smaller pieces, always remove them from your dog's mouth and surroundings.
Can I give my puppy an antler?
We would not advise giving a puppy an antler. However, this depends on where they are during their teething process. If they're younger than six month, an antler is just too tough at that youthful age to chew for their teeth.
