Review | Long Lasting Durable 5 Senses Chew


The "Long Lasting Durable 5 Senses Chew" was one of the first Nylabone products I purchased for Andy. I picked it up at a T.J. Maxx back in July for around $4.00 but haven't seen one there, or anywhere else for that matter, since. It still shows up on the Nylabone website so I don't think it's been phased out completely. I want to write a quick review, well mainly a caveat, in case there are folks out there that still have access to this particular product. 


The packaging for the 5 Senses Chew touts the following: See it! Interactive Shapes, Smell it! Irresistible, Taste it! Bacon Infused, Touch it! Bumps and Ridges, Hear it! Clickety Clack. I wasn't really taken in by all the claims when I picked this chew up. I decided to buy it primarily because it was a Nylabone product (which I generally trust), it felt sturdy, and it looked interesting. I think Andy might have been at the tail end of teething when I picked it up in July, so I know I was also on the lookout for durable chew toys.

Pup Tip | Repurpose Old Dog Tags

What do you do with your pet's old rabies and dog tags? I'm guessing most people put them in a drawer and forget about them or throw them out altogether. I started putting old tags on my keyring a number of years ago after a beloved dog passed away very suddenly. It was just a small way of keeping a piece of him close. Over the years, as my pet's rabies tags have expired, I've added them to my keys. When Maxwell passed away my husband added his i.d. tag, which is engraved with his name and our numbers, to his key ring. The tags are lightweight and colorful and are a great conversation starter. Instead of adding another piece of metal to our landfills consider paying tribute to your pet by carrying their rabies or i.d. tag on your key ring.
