Deer Antlers
A long-lasting all-natural chew for your dog and Cat!
Ingredients: 100% Naturally shed Australian deer antlers. Antlers are an excellent all-natural, long-lasting chew. Antlers are made of true bone which is fed by blood ,this blood is carried in the outer velvet of the antler before shedding.. Once the antler has achieved its full size, the velvet is lost and the antler's bone dies causing the antler then to be shed. Antlers are shed and regrown each year.
Chewing mechanically disrupts any accumulating plaque on your pet's teeth, and is, therefore, a self-cleaning action (Hennet, 1995). Chewing also stimulates the flow of saliva, which contains antibacterial agents that help clean the mouth (Gorrel, 2001). Therefore, chewing‟s initial physical abrasions as well as the resulting saliva flow help keep the mouth clean.
