Antler Chew Size Guide
Below is a general guide to help you choose the most appropriate antler chew for your dog.
CHEW ON THIS!
If your pup is on the upper edge of a size range or a more vigorous chewer, we suggest purchasing the next size up so that the antler lasts longer.
A smaller dog can always handle a larger chew, but an undersized antler for a larger more aggressive chewer will not last very long.
Size Guide
| Dog Size | Antler Size |
|---|---|
| under 20 pounds | Small: 4 to 6 inches |
| 20 to 50 pounds | Medium: 5 to 7 inches |
| 50 to 70 pounds | Large: 7 to 9 inches |
| 70 to 90 pounds | XL: 8 to 10 inches |
| 90 pounds or more | Jumbo: 9 to 12 inches |
| 100 pounds or more | Giant: 10 to 14 inches |
Choosing the Right Antler Size and Style for Your Pup
We encourage pet owners to take the time and choose the correct size, style and density of antler for your dog. Always supervise your dog while they enjoy their RidgeRunner antler chew. Additionally, once an antler becomes too small and might pose a potential choking hazard, discard and replace it with a fresh one.

Shop by Antler Style
We provide a variety of antler styles for you to consider whether your pup needs an easy chew or more of a challenge. Below are the basic differences between each style.
Whole Elk
Whole Elk antlers are the perfect "go to" chew with lots of delicious marrow inside and have a less dense outer core. Great for moderate chewers.
Split Elk
Split Elk antlers are either half or quarter split, which makes them less challenging for pups to get to the delicious nutrient-rich marrow that lies inside.
Deer
Deer antler chews are denser than Elk and have less marrow and a thicker outer core which makes them great for very hard chewing breeds.
Moose
Moose antler chews come in 3 variations to meet the chewing habits of all dogs. From softest to most challenging: Paddle, Split, and Tine.
