Abstract: A chew toy according to one embodiment includes a first part having an elongated threaded post and a second part having a threaded bore that receives the threaded post. The second part has a transverse opening formed therein that is in communication with the threaded bore and is configured to receive an object that can be held therein by a force applied by the threaded post. The first part and the second part rotate relative to one another and have a range of axial movement relative to one another, but the threaded post is inseparably coupled to and contained within the threaded bore.
