This is Jax. He’s a rescue now living his best life.
He loves to chew but destroys quickly any toy or bone….until I found this ostrich bone. He absolutely LOVES it. He’d chew for hours if I let him. I sometimes have to pick up to get him to take a break. LOL
Will definitely be buying again…and again.
Thanks for a great product!
When I opened the treat, my dog came running to me sniffing the air like, what is that. Gave it to him and noticed his eyes went wide. He barked ran around the room, jumped and barked again. I finally realized he didn’t know what to do with this LARGE treat. He’s only 10 pounds. Broke a small section off, he went to chewing on that delicious ostrich gizzard.
Another positive note, no offensive order.
😂 Baxter conducted a full quality-control inspection:
Looked at bone.
Sniffed bone.
Walked around bone.
Stared from the other room.
Did a happy dance. 💃🐶
Sniffed bone again.
Licked it.
And… DONE!
Clearly, the bone passed inspection! 🦴❤️
It's the third session with the twister. Little 14# Ella would have knawed on it until it was gone. Not only does she enjoy the taste & action, but I have found it useful to have some quiet time myself😀
Our Bernadoodle Miko loves his ostrich bone. We will have to get another soon, as nothing in his world 🌎 holds his attention as much as nibbling on this thing.
She has not put this bone down for hours. Carries it outside and inside . She is a constant chewer and this is just what she needs. I will be purchasing again!
This is a picture of what true bliss looks like. Her Pit Bull roommate wanted her knuckle bone. So she got his MEGA bone. We think she is BONEdrunk. 😂 😆 😂
Bailey and Hobie love all of your products they have had so far!!!!
Always think that next box is theirs with Savannah bones!
Thank you for such a great product!
You service is the best!
Love it! My 8 month old PitShepSky mix is a super chewer. We have tried every type of bone, chew, yak chew, antler, etc… and everything is demolished within minutes. We are currently on day seven of his ostrich leg bone and still going strong. This has been his absolute favorite treat and the longest lasting by far. Highly recommend!
She was still chewing 40 minutes later and the bone looked barely different. I have tried many bones for her in the past but they lasted less than 10 minutes and cost a lot. I am very happy I found these!
So…..I ordered this food because my Shar Pei is Savannah. She is loving the ostrich sausages as a topper on her fresh salmon. The free gift were ostrich twists and she loved them. Chewed em up and gone. Ostrich chips with beetroot, she’s loving it as well. Savannah for Savannah. Love it!
Lily is a huge fan of the ostrich trachea. She loves trachea, but has some food allergies, so I was very happy to find a novel protein source. Will definitely be ordering some more since it passed the taste test with flying colors.
Gertie is an aggressive chewer but being a Doxy and having weaker enamel we couldn’t be happier with the ostrich tendon. We have tried countless other chews that were too hard or not appealing to her. This one is perfect. Will be ordering more!
Unemployed Lloyd loves this so much! He's been chewing on it for a couple weeks and has not lost interest or destroyed it. It doesn't splinter and keeps him busy for hours. At one point he accidentally pushed it under the sofa and he was beside himself trying to get to it! This is by far the best thing we've found for him to chew on safely that lasts for a long time. Will be ordering more of your ostrich items! Lloyd thanks you and so do we!
Our 7 lb. Yorkies have put a hurtin on this thing in about 2 days. The actual bone itself is still in tact but the softer tissues on the outside are just about gone. That's both good and bad. They love the bone but ingesting that tissue upsets their stomach a little. This is the leg bone. I will order more but will try other items. I need something that they want to chew but really can't eat.
Sadie and sawyer enjoying the twist, they have two but the grass is always greener! Looking forward to seeing how they enjoy the ostrich knuckles and bones purchased as well.
Our little Clementine fell in love with this big bone. It’s not easy for her to take a little break in between. She’s only been chewing for a couple of days, and her breath appears to be better already.
Best part: no splinters.
Thank you for a great and safe product.
Love Savannah snacks! I get a subscription to this set every month and the dogs really look forward to it. And I feel good about what I’m giving them because it’s lean and healthy, not to mention it doesn’t set off my little girl’s allergies (she has a strong allergy to chicken but the ostrich doesn’t have any effect on her). I especially like the beetroot snacks and they eat that every night after their last potty break, that gets them into their beds fast. I think the beetroot has a lot of vitamins and it’s really good for them. I forgot to show the braided tendon one that also comes in this kit… I forgot to show it because I just gave them that after lunch this afternoon. I think it’s a good deal for the amount of treats you get in one box.
I have to admit I was not going to believe this until I saw it with my own eyes. My dog Riley devours a bone in about 30 seconds and splinters it everywhere. She has had this for over 20 minutes now and it hasn’t budged and she is really really enjoying it. I am so excited! Finally somebody has figured out how to make Riley happy.
Big Hip bone for my big chewer! Can't go wrong with these awesome treats. We are repeat customer's and will continue to be. Also my GSD has a sensitive stomach and a couple of protein allergies and he does awesome with products from here.
This is my 11yr old dog Gypsy. She and my other senior are loving these bones! She only has about 12 teeth left but she's doing a great job on this bone. Its the perfect size for her. This is going to last a long time!
