I have four pitties and they also chew/eat soft toys. This is a great toy to me bc once they get the filling out you can refill. Also, they will last a really long time. It’s been about a year since my last order.
These are the only things that have lasted more than a day with my power chewer. She's more of a hunting dog personality than a herder. I'm assuming you've tried them but thought I'd suggest it.
How about these, but make sure you get the right size: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00X6THK2S?ie=UTF8&tag=titoshtz-20&camp=1789&linkCode=xm2&creativeASIN=B00X6THK2S.
Are you looking for something totally non-consumable (like a plastic or rubber chew toy) or just something that doesn't add too much to the diet?
We've had a lot of success with long-lasting pressed dairy chews like yak milk "bones" you can find at Petco and similar. When ours was a puppy she also loved lamb and pig ears which are cheap there too -- now we buy bulk packs of cow knee caps (feels weird to just have literal knee caps lying around our house but they keep her busy, I just don't know if they're recommended for puppies).
Our dog also consistently loves these 'gorilla' chews made from manufactured wood (https://www.amazon.com/Ware-089655-Gorilla-Natural-1Piece/dp/B017D9F70I) -- she loves chewing sticks and these are essentially wood, but some sort of texture that doesn't splinter. They get gnawed down verrrryyy slowly so no mess, and if any of this "wood" is ingested it's a miniscule amount at a time and totally safe. She goes back to those over and over and we still have the ones we bought her almost a year ago!

My dog likes roots like this. Kinda pricy, but they last forever.
I'm not sure for small breeds since I have a medium/large breed pup, but if he loves wood, the gorilla wood chews have been a hit in my house. They sell them in smaller sizes for smaller dogs, they're not too hard and they last quite a while. They don't splinter, but you do have to monitor as the wood shavings will get everywhere lol and just to make sure he doesn't try to eat any of the larger chunks that fall off.

gorilla chews are great :): https://www.amazon.com/Ware-089655-Gorilla-Natural-1Piece/dp/B017D9F70I/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1CJKVV76WGESN&keywords=gorilla+chew&qid=1642464112&sprefix=gorilla%2Caps%2C492&sr=8-3
they last for ages. The wood sort of crumbles so they don't splinter at all.

Good bc once original Filling is out you can refill. I’ve had two of there for over a year.
Get a nyla bone for your pupper. It helps their teeth fall out, dulls them down a little, not harmful to puppies, and they love them.

Pack of three here to help save your hand/arms from those piranha teeth 😁.
there are gorilla wood chews (https://www.amazon.com/Ware-089655-Gorilla-Natural-1Piece/dp/B017D9F70I/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=gorilla+wood+chew&qid=1613941652&sr=8-1) if he likes pinecones (i have not tried them, they're just wood). antlers are another suggestion, the marrow may have protein, but you can get a whole antler so they can't really get to the marrow inside.
Are benebones ok? Our pup has those and she doesn't really ingest them, she's been working on the same two from the puppy starter pack since we got her. The soft nylabone she destroyed but maybe the benebones are ok?
My pup loves to chew things, and eventually we found out that she likes chewing on elk and ram horns. If you're in a fairly rural area, a lot of places carry them, and if not, Amazon might carry them. Here's an Amazon link to what my pup has, but if you have a smaller dog, I recommend a smaller chew.
A root chew. I got one for mine last week. He didn't quite know what to do with it at first so I poured bacon grease all over it and he figured it out.
Those bionic bones look fantastic!
I re-fill femur bones with a dollop of peanut butter then half kibble and half wet meat then freeze. He has one for breakfast every day.
When I had my dog he would constantly chew up the baseboards or anything wood and he loves sticks. I was at one of the local pet stores in my area and saw these wood chew blocks and picked one up and he loves it, the only down side is little pieces from him chewing would stick to the carpet but it came up easy with the vacuum.

Along with the recommendations of blocking off his access with gates or sprays (sometimes they work and sometimes they don't), I would recommend a wood chew to see if he just really likes the texture of wood. We bought one for our dog when we moved to a townhouse from a house that had a lot of sticks in the backyard and he loved it.
This is the one we have: https://www.amazon.com/089655-Gorilla-Natural-Large-1Piece/dp/B017D9F70I/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1517520880&sr=8-5&keywords=wood+dog+chew
It's really hefty and just kind of shaves off because it's a soft wood. Most dogs who've visited us have chewed on it, and it's still surviving a year and a half later!
My guy LOVES this bone. He's had it for about 4 month and hasn't even gotten half way through. Plus, it doesn't smell as bad. He's also really into hooves, which smell terrible...
> Frozen Kong
Didn't realise these existed, I have been stressing over the "teen" stage for chewing, as she's a husky. Apparently bully sticks would just get eaten almost instantly?
I'm not keen on antlers because deer isn't a huge product in the UK, so I'm skeptical on if they are from a reputable source ( been super careful with animal products since I bought a badger fur brush, then found out how they were made... :( )
she has about 20 toys at the moment, all different shapes and materials, but 90% of them would be destroyed in a week if she was 20 weeks+
I've had good experience in the past with Kong toys, especially the rubber pyramid and frisbee, so we've ordered those, I might order some bully sticks from amazon and give those a try just to see. We got her this :
and shes been keen on the "stage 1" ( first from left to right ) bone for 2-3 days now. She spent all of yesterday and most of today enjoying the "snack" lol, would be nice if they sold more of those on their own. It's like super compacted bacon or something, you could hammer a nail into wood with it, but she really enjoyed eating it.
I go to a butcher and buy the meat there. We also ask for scraps. This book helped a lot. My GSD went from having Colitis symptoms to no issues all.
He's a year and 6 months. I'm certain this was definitely my fault. I got him at 4 months when I was unemployed and was struggling with a disability- I'm deaf in one ear and have vertigo attacks. So while I was unemployed (5 months) so I took him everywhere with me, training him for alerting me to sounds and balancing. I've been getting injections that largely help with vertigo so I've stopped taking him with me everywhere about 8 months ago and only bringing him when I need him. I left him by himself a few months ago with one of those mammoth dog bones uncrated, and he completely ignored it, figured out how to open the bolt lock door, and my apartment manager called me saying he was pacing around the court yard :/
The only times he's absolutely didn't care that I left was after coming from from a 5 day backpacking trip with him and a 48 hour fly-to-Denver-hike-13000ft-mountain-flyback-next-day trip.
We give these to our pup - she demolishes them at varying speeds I'm guessing depending how bad her teething pain is that day. That being said, we have a much smaller breed than your girl so YMMV.
Maybe give this thing a shot.
I have a chewer. He's got two of these things, and he can't get through either one, but he's managed to get to the marrow... tasty stuff.
Other people have told you about cow bones. These might be a good option, but the antlers are stronger than normal bones, and would tend not to splinter as rawhide does (and as some people would believe cow bones do).
My dogs love those bones that have a filling inside like these http://www.amazon.com/Redbarn-Filled-Peanut-Butter-6-inch/dp/B000633Y4A
We have two that we got around Christmas and my puppy chews on them all the time and they still have a long way to get through them!
Would this include those bones that are filled in the center?
Or how about the bones you can buy?
I haven't read much on deer antlers so I can't speak to those but the elk antlers have been the best thing for my 8 month old beagle/lab. My 2 year old pit loves them too. No injuries. They don't chip, they get slightly pliable as they chew and then dissolve slowly over time. The only thing to be aware of is that eventually after weeks or months of chewing, they will get short and be a choking hazard. Here is where I buy mine.
Crap, should have clarified. ONLY for a puppy up to 16 weeks. The "serving" sizes are so small it would be easy for the dog to swallow the entire chew much past four months.
One we got from our local grocery store (Wegman's), the other was from a high-end pet food store and I'm not sure of the brand. The latter lasted a lot longer than the former.
Sounds like you too have a hardcore chewer. After trying just about everything, we settled on these: http://www.amazon.com/Elk-Antler-Dog-Chews-Satisfaction/dp/B00JYN1HGK/ref=sr_1_7?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1435631860&sr=1-7
In that case, I give you this thing. Now, normally, I don't need to go this far in the chewable library, but in this case, it appears to be a must.
What it is is a 100% natural elk antler. This tends to be one of the elk's hardest bones (yes, there be marrow in there) as it's used to fight against other elk, mark trees, etc.
I have gotten one of these for another eater/chewer of things. She can't seem to break it.
Uh, oh, my dog eats deer antlers. They're a super-popular dog chew! Maybe that's why she's so fast...
My pit bull does that too. Antlers are the way to go – but make sure it's an elk antler (like this); he ate about 6" of whatever kind of antler they sell at my local pet store in a single evening.
