Quick Summary
The Benebone Wishbone is a chew designed with flavor and grip in mind — molded with real bacon flavor and shaped so dogs can hold and chew comfortably. It’s ideal for persistent chewers who like a savory twist.
Full Review
Benebone’s Wishbone toys stand out because of two design choices: flavor and form. The toy’s bacon infusion is a real attractor; many dogs immediately engage with it and continue to return. The wishbone shape also solves a common problem — dogs need a place to grip. The concave shape leaves room for their paws so they can stabilize the toy while chewing.
Durability is good for a nylon-style chew. It resists breakage better than many soft toys and is heavier duty than plush items. However, owners should inspect it periodically: if you see sharp edges or deep gouges, it’s time to replace the toy.
A caveat: the smell and flavor are strong. If you’re sensitive to odors, keep the Benebone in a storage spot and bring it out for sessions. Also, supervise heavy chewers — while Benebone is marketed for strong chewers, no chew toy is truly indestructible.
Who Is This For?
Dogs that love flavor-driven chewing and like to hold their toys while they gnaw. Great for medium to large dogs with strong jaws, but check frequently for wear.
