Dogs love to play and chew as they have a highly developed instinct for chewing to maintain strong and healthy teeth. Each piece helps reduce your pet's stress. Chewing olive wood is safe, and the fibers that come off can be swallowed and digested without harming your beloved friend. Olive wood is the perfect alternative to bones or antlers.

*Tannins are a significant category of polyphenolic compounds which have a characteristic bitter taste and are abundant in nature. Chemically, they are intertwined and connected with certain proteins and other organic compounds such as amino acids and alkaloids. They are commonly found in the fruit of many plant species, particularly oak and chestnut species, in the bark of acacia, tea, etc. They are also found in the roots, bark, fruit, and leaves of tropical species Acacia and Quebracho. In the Schinopsis balansae species, up to 25% of its wood may consist of valuable tannins. These substances have been known to mankind since ancient times (ancient Egypt, Greece, and China). Today, they have numerous uses. They have the property of preventing rot (decay) of skins and are widely used in tanning, in pharmaceuticals as formulations for medicines, and in the production of ink. White oak contains abundant tannins. However, their most famous application is in oak barrels, where during the aging of wine, beneficial substances from the wood, including so-called enological tannins, are slowly hydrolyzed and infused into the red wine.
