Overview Dogs absolutely love chewing, and sometimes your shoes or chair legs pay the price. That’s where deer antlers come to the rescue. Every year deer shed them naturally, and Platinum Ranch in New Zealand collects the best of the lot. Nothing added, nothing messed with, just solid antler that dogs can gnaw for hours. These chews keep them busy, help tidy up their teeth, and give them a dose of natural minerals at the same time. Product Features Straight from nature: 100% deer antlers, shed naturally and sourced in NZ. Packed with goodness: Full of calcium and minerals that support strong bones and health. Lasts for ages: Hard texture makes chewing slow and satisfying. Gentle on the tummy: Easier to digest than many processed chews. Dental helper: The steady gnawing helps scrape plaque and keep teeth clean. Specifications Origin: Platinum Ranch, New Zealand Sizes: Small: under 95 g Medium: 95–160 g Large: 160–220 g Benefits Chewing is more than a habit; it’s how dogs relax and burn off energy. Antlers give them a safe, natural outlet while doing double duty for their health. They last far longer than rawhide or soft chews, so you’re not replacing them every few days. And because they’re rich in natural minerals, they do more than just entertain. They support bones, teeth, and overall well-being, all while keeping your pup content. Usage Instructions Pick the right size for your dog; bigger is usually safer. Let them chew under supervision, especially at first. Keep fresh water nearby and treat it as an extra, not a meal replacement. Important Notes (Don’ts) Don’t give tiny pieces that could be swallowed whole. Not recommended for puppies, senior dogs, or those with weak teeth. Don’t try to cook or soften the antler; it’s best left natural. Compatibility Ideal for medium to large dogs with strong jaws and a love of chewing. Smaller dogs may struggle with the hardness, so keep to softer chews for them. Care and Maintenance If the antler gets muddy, rinse it under water and let it dry. Store it somewhere dry between uses. Once it’s chewed down small or develops sharp edges, it’s time for a new one. Warranty and Support Because antlers are a natural product, every piece is slightly different. If you’re not happy with what arrives, Shine Pets will happily work with you to sort a replacement or refund. Dimensions Small: under 95 g Medium: 95–160 g Large: 160–220 g FAQs 1. Are deer antlers safe for dogs? Yes, when the right size is chosen and chewing is supervised. Because they’re naturally shed, they’re free from additives and safe for most dogs. 2. Do antlers splinter? Unlike bones, antlers are very dense and usually wear down slowly as your dog chews. Always check for sharp edges and replace once the piece gets too small. 3. How long does a deer antler last? For most dogs, weeks or even months. Strong chewers will wear them down faster, but they last much longer than rawhide or softer chews. 4. Can puppies have deer antlers? They’re not recommended for young puppies, as their teeth are still soft. Stick to gentler chews until your pup is older. 5. What size should I buy? Always go bigger than your dog’s mouth. A larger piece is safer and keeps chewing slowly and steadily. 6. Do deer antlers smell? Not at all. They’re odourless and mess-free and don’t stain carpets or furniture, which makes them easy for people as well as pets.
