Apparatus and method of making canine chew toy
View Patent ↗A chew toy has a bone portion impregnated with a soft solid along an interior thereof to simulate the taste and texture of bone marrow, and has a meat portion impregnated with liquid to simulate the taste of meat. The bone portion is defined by an elongated shaft terminating at opposite ends. A first terminal end and a second terminal end of the shaft are defined by a pair of condyles, or in the alternative, by a rounded body. The elongated shaft is defined by a narrow middle portion and widening at a first terminal end and a second terminal end. The meat portion circumscribes a terminal end the bone portion. The meat portion further extends toward a middle portion of a shaft of the bone portion, wherein a sufficient quantity of the bone portion is available for use by a canine.
1. A chew toy comprising:
a bone portion formed of a non-consumable material impregnated with a soft solid along an interior thereof to simulate a taste and a texture of bone marrow; and
a meat portion circumscribing a part of said bone portion, said meat portion is formed of a softer non-consumable material impregnated with liquid to simulate the taste of meat.
2. The chew toy of claim 1 , wherein said bone portion is defined by an elongated shaft having a first terminal end opposite a second terminal end.
3. The chew toy of claim 2 , wherein said first terminal end and said second terminal end are defined by a pair of condyles.
4. The chew toy of claim 2 , wherein said first terminal end and said second terminal end are defined by a rounded body.
5. The chew toy of claim 1 , wherein said bone portion comprises a linearly elongated shaft.
6. The chew toy of claim 1 , wherein said bone portion comprises an elongated shaft defined by a narrow middle portion and a widening at a first terminal end and a second terminal end.
7. The chew toy of claim 1 , wherein said part of said bone portion that said meat portion circumscribes is a first of two terminal ends.
8. The chew toy of claim 7 , wherein said meat portion further extends toward a middle portion of a shaft of said bone portion, wherein a sufficient quantity of said bone portion is available for use by a canine.
9. A method of making a canine chew toy, said method comprises the steps:
a molding of an elongated bone portion formed of a non-consumable plastic material; and
a molding of a meat portion directly onto a terminal end and part of a length of said bone portion, said meat portion is formed of a softer, non-consumable plastic or rubber material.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein said bone portion is inserted in a recess formed at a tail portion of said meat portion.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein said bone portion is impregnated with a soft solid along an interior thereof to simulate a taste and a texture of bone marrow.
12. The method of claim 9 , wherein said meat portion is impregnated with a liquid to simulate a taste of meat.
13. A chew toy comprising:
a bone portion defined by an elongated shaft having a first end and a second end, said bone portion is formed from a non-consumable plastic;
a soft solid impregnated within an interior of said bone portion, said soft solid simulates a texture and a taste of bone marrow;
a meat portion molded around said first end and a part of a length of said elongated shaft, said meat portion is formed from a softer, non-consumable material that is deformable and returnably resilient so as to simulate a texture and an appearance of meat; and,
a liquid substance impregnated within said meat portion, said liquid substance is provided as a means to simulate a moistness, a scent and a flavor of a meat product.
14. The chew toy of claim 13 further comprising a raised indicia on the exterior of said bone portion.
