The perfect treat to keep up with the energy & excitement of this team!

In 2010 Fly'N Aces decided to give back to the flyball community by hosting a charity event tournament at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway!  Since competing in the NASCAR garage at the speedway, they chose to support the Greg Biffle Animal Foundation.  Greg is a NASCAR driver whose foundation supports a wide range of animal welfare groups nationwide!  Last year Fly'N Aces raised $5000, donated through the foundation to the Joplin Humane Society to offer financial assistance with medical expenses for the hundreds of animals injured from the tornado that ripped through the city.  see full article

Why Antlers for Dogs? Most common questions about Antler Chews

Antler chews are set apart from traditional bones as they will not stain your carpet, splinter or turn into slimy goo, AND they last much longer than other dog chews. They are naturally shed deer or elk antler pieces, NO fillers, preservatives, added color or anything else!   
It’s just a bone the way nature intended! No animals are hurt in the collection of this bone! 

Do you treat the antlers with anything?

  • They are 100% all natural, just as if your pup went hiking in the forest to find a treat.  We basically sand blast any debris or residue off the antlers.

How do you prepare the antlers for pets?

  • We cut them to the desired size and sort them by diameter to get the proper size appropriate for pets (see below).  They are then processed, a sort of "sand blasted" method to remove any excess residue. 

What do I need to be concerned about before giving an antler to my dog?

  • As with ANY dog chew toy, to ensure safety, remove the antler bone when it becomes a choking hazard.  Choosing the appropriate size is most important to avoid possible hazards.  (see below)
