Base Cut Mule Deer Antlers, Recommended for Power ChewersYou will receive the exact antler(s) pictured. The scale in the pictures is in inches. These are for small dogs or puppies only.
These are base cuts, and naturally shed - you can see the yummy burr that I've kept attached. The base of the antler is more dense and the bone is stronger that the tips or tines of the antler. The further from the base of the antler the more marrow and less dense it becomes.
Strategically placing a few of these around my house helps keep my 3 dogs from chewing on other things like the couch or my new tennis shoes.
I have custom sizing pieces available as well. If you are looking for a suggestion for a particular breed of dog, don't hesitate to ask. I have found that choosing my dog size and weight is not always the best. I had a 12 pound toy poodle that could only chew elk splits with her poor teeth, but I have a YorkiePom that can chew things even my big English Spaniel can't. Every dog is different and only a pet owner knows how much their dog likes to chew, and how often.
These antlers were found over the last year by myself and my husband. Deer shed their antlers every year, and once they move to higher ground for summer we walked in and searched for them on foot.
The primary composition of these naturally shed antlers are Calcium and Phosphorus. Trace amounts of potassium, sodium, magnesium, iron and zinc. Antlers have been washed in water and had their edges hand sanded to remove any sharp edges.
Antlers are a natural product, are unique in their shape, and have natural flaws. I've tried to display a variety of pictures to demonstrate the uniqueness of the antler. They can range in color from light brown to different shades of gray and white, depending on how long they have been exposed to the sun and weather. I've even found some stained pink from the red clay soil they were shed in.
Antlers are a great alternative to other "natural" products like bully sticks, which are a slaughterhouse waste product. Antlers seem to keep their teeth clean, strong, and healthy and they make no mess.
If you would like a specific color or shape please feel free to email me before purchasing to make sure I have what you want available.
Reminders: Please make sure that you supervise your pet while introducing them to any new chew. Make sure to remove your antler chew from your pet before its small enough to be a choking hazard.
