Bill Bryson is one of the world's most beloved and bestselling writers. In A Short History of Nearly Everything, he takes his ultimate journey-into the most intriguing and consequential questions that science seeks to answer. It's a dazzling quest, the intellectual odyssey of a lifetime, as this insatiably curious writer attempts to understand everything that has transpired from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization. Or, as the author puts it, ..".how we went from there being nothing at all to there being something, and then how a little of that something turned into us, and also what happened in between and since." This is, in short, a tall order. To that end, Bill Bryson apprenticed himself to a host of the world's most profound scientific minds, living and dead. His challenge is to take subjects like geology, chemisty, paleontology, astronomy, and particle physics and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people, like himself, made bored (or scared) stiff of science by school. His interest is not simply to discover what we know but to find out how we know it. How do we know what is in the center of the earth, thousands of miles beneath the surface? How can we know the extent and the composition of the universe, or what a black hole is? How can we know where the continents were 600 million years ago? How did anyone ever figure these things out? On his travels through space and time, Bill Bryson encounters a splendid gallery of the most fascinating, eccentric, competitive, and foolish personalities ever to ask a hard question. In their company, he undertakes a sometimes profound, sometimes funny, and always supremely clear and entertaining adventure in the realms of human knowledge, as only this superb writer can render it. Science has never been more involving, and the world we inhabit has never been fuller of wonder and delight.Binding Type: Hardcover

It ok but a bit small for my golden and I have to supervise him.
Color: Grilled color
I don't recommend. Too big for my small dog. Too small for my big dog. They have similar bones but these just seem odd. ** WELL actually after some time they both will chew on them, especially my golden. Do be careful watch the dog while chewing. My home health care aid thought they were real. they are holding up well.

Finally a chew toy my aggressive chewer can’t destroy
Color: Grilled color
I’ve gone through countless “indestructible” dog toys that lasted maybe a day—sometimes only minutes. My dog is an aggressive chewer and treats most toys like a personal challenge. These Fuufome chew toys are the real deal.
Right out of the box, you can tell they’re made from tough, high-quality nylon. My dog went to work on them immediately, and days later there’s barely any noticeable wear. No chunks missing, no sharp edges, and no mess on the floor. That alone puts these way above most toys I’ve tried.
I also love that they actually keep my dog busy. Instead of getting bored and looking for something else to chew (like furniture), she’ll settle in and happily gnaw on these for a long time. It’s been great for mental stimulation and for redirecting destructive chewing.
The fact that you get two durable toys in the pack is a bonus, and they’ve held up exactly as advertised. If you have a large breed or an aggressive chewer and you’re tired of wasting money on toys that don’t last, these are absolutely worth it.
Highly recommend—this is one of the few chew toys that has truly lived up to the “indestructible” claim. 🐶💪

Perfect bones for dachshunds
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 5.25 inch (Pack of 1), Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 5.25 inch (Pack of 1)
I buy the medium size bones for my dachshund and my daughter’s 3 dachshund. The are a great shape for them to hold in their paws or to play with a second dachshund. They love the smell and taste. The dachshunds are entertained for hours, chewing, carrying and fighting over. The weight is light enough to be easily carried. The bones are durable enough to last a month with vigorous use. The value of play time to cost is good. I buy 4 bones each month for four dachshunds to share.

Chihuahua approved
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: 5.25 inch (Pack of 1)
My older dog (8 years old) loves this one. It’s still tough but has more give than some of the other chew toys. He has an easier time holding this shape in his skinny paws (chihuahau)
