Abstract: A protective housing for a dog chew may comprise an elongated middle section coupled with bulbous end sections at either end. The middle section may comprise a tunnel extending lengthwise there through, and at least one of the end sections may have a chew insertion window. The chew insertion window may be in line with the tunnel axis, thereby allowing insertion of a chew through the chew insertion window and into the tunnel. Chew access windows may be formed along the middle section, thereby allowing partial access to the chew, while also protecting the chew to extend its life.

Abstract: A pet chew dispensing device simultaneously secures and dispenses a pet chew. In some examples, the device may comprise a body of chew resistant material and a window formed through the body and adapted to receive the pet chew therein. When disposed inside the window, the pet chew remains partially exposed while the pet chew is simultaneously protected by the body of chew resistant material. The device adaptively pressures the pet chew, such that pet chews which change size over time (or having a range of different initial sizes) may nonetheless remain secured.

Abstract: A pet toy with edible formulation may include a substantially spherical housing comprising a first hemisphere and a second hemisphere which are releasably couplable. An edible formulation may be bonded to an internal sidewall inside at least one of the first and second hemispheres, such that the edible formulation is accessible by releasing the first hemisphere from the second hemisphere.

Abstract: Pet chew products and methods of manufacturing such products are disclosed. Some pet chew products may comprise puffed pieces of dry animal tissue, such as bully stick, or puffed pieces of hardened cheese, such as hardened yak cheese made for pet consumption. Some pet chew products may comprise hardened cheese, dry animal tissue such as a bully stick, and a sugar protein bond joining the hardened cheese and the dry animal tissue.
