Antlers

Just found THE Staffie-proof toy - deer antlers. Wonderful, lots of chew in them and they don't disintegrate or flake as much as nylobone.

Got ours from Dougals Den website.

Fantastic, try them.

Lynne on here has them for Billy and swears by them too. Xx

Oh I want! But haven't found any anywhere yet.. Not sure if you're allowed to import any..

Yeah they are brilliant Billy has had them for ages

don't think we could get them here in Australia either.

maybe I should check good old ebay!!

They do them on amazon.com - have a look to see if they'll ship to Australia...

my grandpa gave me an antler that he found once (so maybe we do have them here vanessa?)
I loved it and kept it, it was so special to me haha (my grandpa used to give me alsorts of animal things he found - ostriche eggs, fox tails, turtles shells....)

any way found my dog gnawing on it under my bed when I was about 11 I was so upset!!!

Sorry, but

There are lots of sellers on etsy, too.. But I'm thinking that at least Australia is crazy suspicious of anything animal in origin entering their country and I'm not sure if we're allowed either. Will have to check it out - wouldn't be any fun if it was returned at the border.

thanks Caryll.. I actually typed in google deer antler for sale Australia and a few places came up in Australia.. I guess there are venison farms around. Anyway one has C Grade antlers for $40 a kilo when they can get them...they also sell deer penis and testicles.... I feel ill !! Can't find the postage price though on their web site..

Maybe Aniemother could get Reindeer antlers more easily - but not at this time of year, they're all busy elsewhere ! Ho Ho

Eeeuuuuuwww! I don't think I'll bother, thank you...........

Not sure why deer penis is worse than "bully stix"? I kinda agree when it comes to the testicles, though.. Dried or fresh?

They're a bit far away, I think. But my mom finds deer antlers from time to time so if I keep an eye out I might find some. Not sure if I have the patience, though..

I think it is just the thought of my boys chewing on a deers penis or testicles... and then licking my face !!

Hope they're not fresh!
I don't buy the bully sticks either!!!!

I quite agree!

This is starting to sound a bit like I'm a Celebrity eating challenge

I'm not all that squeamish tbh. If they can eat liver and feet they can eat penis too! So I do get some bully stix from time to time.

This whole conversation... came on here to find out where people were getting the antlers and . Just for the record, as a guy, I just can't do the bully stix thing.

Lovely topic!

My two LOVE bully sticks

I feel hungry after reading all this !!

I never thought of antlers, we have so many and no where to hang them, lol years of deer hunting...

Do you prefer the whole antlers or the ones that are cut in half to expose the marrow?

Replying to Aniemother from Dec 10, mine have the whole antlers, but they do vary in size. Happy New Year wishes !

I always give the whole antler. Stays whole far longer!

Thanks - I actually ordered one yesterday. The supplier I wanted only had whole ones right now so that's what I got. The reason I asked was that it might have been good with a cut one the first time to make it more interesting. They last really long if they're not chewed, but then it doesn't do me much good.
