Bone head yak chew holder
The smaller one is plenty big enough for my 85lb Cane Corso and the medium/large Himalayan yak chews I got for her. I think there would have been room for larger too, can’t imagine what would fit in the large size. It was easy to use, and stayed securely on the yak chews, but the plastic is not rubbery or hard enough to endure teeth marks. That being said my dog wasn’t really interested in chewing the Bonehead itself so it works for us.

Ideal for helping to prevent your dog from choking!
After a very scary incident with my puppy (he tried to swallow the last bit of his NUBZ whole and started choking), I knew I needed something like this, and this did the trick! Now I can take his NUBZ and screw one end down and he can chew on the rest! Unfortunately, I have to throw the end bit away, bit at least I feel a lot safer now. Since having this, he hasn't had any issues! This device has a small issue - the screw is plastic and can easily be marred/damaged from an incorrect screwdriver, but I still rated it 5 stars just because I feel safe my puppy can have his favorite chews again!

Best yak holder I’ve found so far
I’ve tried a few different holders and this one is the best so far. I have a 20lb frenchie who loves her yak sticks. This holds them tight and is the perfect size for her and just right for the medium sized sticks. My only complaint is the screw that secures the stick. The screw broke after about 9 months of use. But maybe my expectations should’ve been lower since the screw is made of plastic. The 4 little triangle sections of the screw head broke off over time one by one and eventually there was nothing left for the screwdriver to grab onto. I wish they sold just replacement screws for these, that’s all I really need.

Great idea terrible product
I bought two of these along with some small himalayan chew bones to try. It just barely held the chews securely- had to position them just right for it to work, but I ended up deciding the yak chews were dangerous for my dogs' teeth. And even with this holder I felt I needed to watch like a hawk to be sure the pups weren't pulling the chew out or breaking their teeth- those yak chews are scary and I read a few too many reviews (after buying 🙄) that spoke of broken molars and vet bills.So I gave up on yak chews, and tried the holder with bully sticks and other hard chews, but the screw either breaks the chew, or doesn't hold them securely, so the dogs just pull them out. One little rawhide thing actually held well with the screw down as far as it would go until the dog pulled so hard that the screw got sucked deep into the hole and the slots for the screwdriver collapsed so now the whole thing is garbage. I tried a big braided bully stick and the screw broke the braid and turned it into 3 small bully sticks that my dogs will try to swallow for sure. I'm so done trying.The only good use for this would be for a verrry chewy dental chew that is wide enough to hold tightly, squishy enough not to split. Just to slow your dog down so they don't eat whatever it is whole. Imo yak chews are terrifying and this thing isn't worth the trouble. There has to be a better option out there somewhere!

Dog Mom's Peace of Mind
These small sized Boneheads are terrific! I'd like to pass on some tips I have learned to make them extra secure for the dogs in your life. I use the Pawstruck 7" Bully Sticks with these. The solid sticks, not the braided ones. In order to make them very secure in the Bonehead I take a small serrated knife and cut in a narrow, but not deep line on both the top and bottom of the stick about 1 1/2" from the end or a little less. Those cuts allow the screw and the 3 knobby tips opposite the screw to securely "seat" into the bully stick without being pulled out. Tighten down the screw making sure to catch both of those cuts. Works perfectly! Another tip is when I first got these and put bully sticks in them my two dogs were not interested in chewing on their "favorite" sticks and would leave them lay on the floor. So - I placed the Bonehead devices into the bag with bully sticks for a couple days to smell like the sticks instead of plastic. Worked perfectly! My dogs love to hold onto the Bonehead to prop up the stick for easier chewing. So great! And - bonus - their teeth look fantastic and I no longer worry about them swallowing that last 3" of the stick. I do keep a close eye on them though. I no longer watch them like a hawk but I watch them with a smile. I highly recommend these!Update: I have found a perfect method to securely hold the bully sticks in place! About an inch from the end I use a countersink drill bit creating a perfectly round hold for the screw to fit into. (Do not go all the way through the stick though, just create a shallow hole.) Directly underneath the hole I use a small diameter rough rasp and can easily create a trough for the knobby area to fit into. Works great!!!

Could use Improvement
Though the plastic is heavy and thick and well-made, I love the idea of this product, but after a very short amount of time, within the first 2 weeks, the screw stripped out. The plastic screw is now stuck inside and cannot be reversed out or pushed through. I tried to find a metal screw like in one of the other photo reviews, but now the screw is just stuck inside anyway. Also, to improve the product, the screw could be made longer to fit smaller chews. If you are trying to use this for a bully stick, likely the bully sticks are too small and to tighten down the screw enough onto the stick, the screw is basically coming all the way through the hole and falling out, not holding anything very securely. I wanted to love this product, and I did while it worked, but wasn't perfect.
