All yak-chew questions
Will the Power Slab survive a true power chewer?

Longer than anything else we sell, but no edible chew is indestructible. Expect sessions across days or weeks, supervise every one, and retire the piece once it shrinks toward swallow size.

Is a harder chew safe for my dog’s teeth?

Hardness cuts both ways: it is why the chew lasts and why forceful biters can stress their teeth. Healthy adult teeth and supervised sessions are the deal. If your dog has any dental history, ask your vet first.

My dog is medium-sized but chews hard. This one?

Yes. Sizing up is exactly the right move for power chewers. A bar that is too big is safe; a bar that is too small never is.
