Launched for the 2023 holiday season as an extension of the charitable Nylabone Cares program, the Holiday Enrichment program helps combat the negative behaviors and emotions common among shelter animals. The donated Strong Chew stuffable cone toys can be filled with tasty spreads and treats, helping to keep dogs mentally engaged and promoting non-destructive chewing habits.

“Shelter dogs need daily enrichment, and this season of giving is the perfect opportunity to provide them a fun and fulfilling activity,” said Glen S. Axelrod, President and CEO of Nylabone Products. “The chew toys we donated help ease dogs’ stress and teach healthy behaviors that will prepare them for a new life and family—and help keep them from being returned to shelters.”

The Strong Chew stuffable cone toy is made of strong natural rubber for unpredictable bounces and rolls, and it features raised dental nubs that help clean teeth as dogs chew. This entertaining treat toy can even be frozen for the ultimate chewing challenge.

Nylabone maintains long-standing partnerships with these organizations and supports hundreds of additional local and national charities through the Nylabone Cares program. Committed to helping dogs find and stay in their forever homes, Nylabone Cares educates pet parents on why dogs chew and donates high-quality chew toys that promote healthy chewing habits.

These contributions from Nylabone support Central Garden & Pet’s Impact strategy, which is dedicated to driving sustainability. Grounded in the purpose to nurture happy and healthy homes, Central is focused on protecting our planet, cultivating our communities, and empowering our employees.
