Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the Ethical Play Strong Rubber Bone made of?
Ans: The bone is made from a unique thermoplastic rubber, known as TPR, which fuses plastic and rubber for added durability and bounce. It is a heavy, virtually indestructible chew toy designed specifically for tough and aggressive chewers.
Q2: Can I put treats inside the bone?
Ans: Yes. The bone has a hollow center that can be stuffed with treats or peanut butter for added fun. Keep in mind the hole narrows toward the middle, so thicker treats like large bully sticks may not fit through.
Q3: Does the bone float in water?
Ans: Yes. The bone is made with unique rubber that floats in water, so it works well for play at the pool, lake, or beach. Its buoyant design makes it a versatile toy for both indoor and outdoor use.
Q4: What size should I choose for my dog?
Ans: The bone comes in two sizes. The manufacturer recommends the 5.5-inch toy for small breed dogs and the 6.5-inch toy for medium and large breeds. It is best to choose a size slightly larger than your dog's mouth.
Q5: Is this toy good for aggressive chewers?
Ans: It is designed as a heavy, virtually indestructible bone for tough and aggressive chewers, and the durable TPR rubber resists biting and gnawing. However, no dog toy is truly indestructible, so always supervise play and replace the toy if damaged.
Q6: Does the toy come with a warranty?
Ans: Yes. The durable rubber bone is backed by a 100% lifetime guarantee, so it should stand up to normal wear and tear. If your dog manages to damage it through normal play, the guarantee is intended to cover that.
Q7: How do I clean the rubber bone?
Ans: This toy is not dishwasher-safe. Clean it by hand with warm water and mild soap as needed, then rinse it well with clean water to remove any soap. Inspect it regularly and remove it if pieces begin to break off.
Q8: Will the rubber hurt my dog's teeth?
Ans: The bone is made of rubber rather than hard plastic, and many owners note it is firm yet slightly flexible. That softer give is gentler on teeth than rigid chews, though you should still supervise and replace if damaged.
Q9: Where is the toy made, and who makes it?
Ans: The toy is made in China and produced under the SPOT brand by Ethical Products, Inc., a New Jersey company established in 1952. Ethical Products created the Play Strong series to give dogs durable chewing, exercise, and mental stimulation.
Q10: What color is the Play Strong Rubber Bone?
Ans: This bone comes in a bright red color, one of the signature colors of the Play Strong series. The bold red makes the bone easy for both you and your dog to spot during indoor or outdoor play.
