摘要:
An animal chew may include a first elongated half and a second elongated half rotatably secured to the first elongated half, wherein the first and second elongated halves are rotatable around an axis of rotation. The animal chew may also include a locking pin retained between the first elongated half and the second elongated half, wherein the locking pin slides up and down the axis of rotation into a locked position and an unlocked position. The animal chew may further include a chamber having an opening and an interior volume, wherein the chamber is formed in at least one of the first elongated half and the second elongated half. When the locking pin is in the locked position, rotation of the first elongated half relative to the second elongated half is impeded.

摘要:
A pet toy product comprising at least one edible treat and a body member in the form of a ring surrounding the edible treat, with the body member having opposing sides and a body member aperture. The edible treat is receivable into the body member aperture from either side of the body member, and connected to the body member within the body member aperture by a releaseable mechanical connection formed between the edible treat and the body member.
摘要:
A pet chew product comprising at least three arms wherein a distal end of at least a first arm comprises first and second distal end portions. The arms arranged such that, when the product is located on a planar surface in a rest position, the first distal end portion of the first arm contacts the planer surface and the second distal end portion of the first arm is spaced at a distance above the planar surface, and when a downwardly directed force is a applied to the second distal end portion of the first arm, the product rotates on the first distal end portion of the first arm and at least one other arm rises above the planar surface until the second distal end portion of the first arm contacts the planar surface whereby the product is presented in a raised position.
摘要:
A chew toy of non-uniform shape may be manufactured from an edible starch composition by introducing said composition to an extruder having a barrel and subjecting the composition to shear and heat to form a melt, and conveying the melt through an adjustable orifice while varying the cross-section dimensions of the orifice to form an extrudate having thickness dimensions that varies along its length. This may be followed by cutting the extrudate to length. The extrudate may also be passed between cooperating cavities and formed to shape. The extrudate may also be guided into predetermined patterns by repositioning the die relative to a molding surface.

A pet chew article comprising luffa fibers and a polymer composition. The pet chew article may be formed by supplying luffa fibers, supplying a polymer composition combining the luffa fibers with the polymer composition and forming the pet chew article from the luffa fibers and the polymer composition.
摘要:
An injection molding method to form a pet chew article, comprising providing an injection mold including at least one molding cavity; providing a first polymer composition having a first color; providing a second polymer composition having a second color; plasticizing the first polymer composition in a first plasticizing injection unit; plasticizing the second polymer composition in a second plasticizing injection unit; injecting the first polymer composition and the second polymer composition into the at least one molding cavity such that the first polymer composition and the second polymer composition mix and form a heterogeneous mixture; and forming the pet chew article from the heterogeneous mixture of the first polymer composition and the second polymer composition such that an outer surface of the pet chew article is variegated, wherein the variegated outer surface is formed of a plurality of regions with each region having a different color.
摘要:
Described herein are dental compositions, articles of manufacture including such dental compositions, and methods of using such dental compositions. In some embodiments, the dental compositions include a combination of ascorbic acid with at least one of a hexametaphosphate and a beta glucans. In some instances, the dental compositions are included within an edible article, a chew, or an edible chew. Administration of the dental compositions to the oral cavity of a subject may reduce the gingival, plaque, and/or calculus scores of the subject over a defined time period.
