Nutra-9 is extremely happy to have found this product and proud to be able to bring it to you.

This is one of the toughest, if not the toughest dog chew/toy we have found!!!


GoughNuts pet toys are designed to address the simple but serious issue of SAFETY.  The GoughNuts

chew toys are designed knowing that safety and fun go hand in hand.

 

Each GoughNuts pet toy has included in its design the GoughNuts patented safety indicator

where Green means "Go" and Red means "Stop".  Made in the USA!  See below for more detail.

The Stick is our newest offering in chew toy safety.  Every Goughnut Stick includes our patent pending two layered, "Chew Toy Safety Indicator."

All GoughNuts Sticks are guaranteed for life.  Our two layered technology and our guarantee are our investment in your dog's safety.  Please remove any GoughNuts chew toy from your dog if the red indication is seen.  Please follow the instruction in the "Guarantee" section seen by selecting the button above.

All GoughNuts products float, including the Stick!  The Goughnut Stick comes in green, where "green means Go and red means Stop" and Black, where we use specific carbon technology that produces the strongest material we know how to make.

The dimensions of the GoughNuts Stick are 9.25 inches long with a 1.75" cross section.  We have proved that the 1.75 inch cross section n combination with our durable rubber holds up to 99% of the power chewers out there.

Your dog will love the GoughNuts Stick.  He can fetch on land or water. Like all GoughNuts, the stick floats.

One of the reasons we made the Stick our next  design, was to add another dimension to our product line .  Our Original GoughNut has many accolades but one issue that we have heard is that a dog that cannot destroy a toy might ignore it.  For those dogs, the GoughNuts Stick in combination with the original GoughNut, produces the GoughNuts puzzle.  The puzzle is made by using a lubricant  (olive oil, dog saliva, dish soap) to press fit the Stick into the original GoughNut.  Any color combination of stick and original GoughNut  create the puzzle. The GoughNuts puzzle is seen in below.  The GoughNuts puzzle offers different angles for your dog to chew on.  The dog will enjoy the different ways the puzzle rolls and bounces.  If your dog has the power to pull, the puzzle can be solved and the dog will sense that it has destroyed or figured out the GoughNuts puzzle.  Of course the puzzle can be put back together as many times as your dog has energy for.  Yes, and the GoughNuts puzzle also floats.

The purpose of the Goughnuts patent idea is to change pet chew toy technology for dogs and other
pets so that the possibility of blockages (from ingestion of chew toys) in a pet’s digestive track will be
lessened or eliminated.

By implementing the GoughNuts visual indicator within the chew toy itself, pet owners can clearly see

if the pet toy’s integrity has been compromised. This indication will be clearly visible if the pet (typically a dog)

chews from one color to the next. The basic colors known throughout the world, “Green for Go”

and “Red for Stop” will be used. This “GoughNuts Safety Indicator” technology can be clearly seen above.

 

The product instruction states that if or when the pet chews through the green thickness where by the red

indicating “Stop” color is seen, the pet owner should return the product to the manufacturer for replacement.

If the pet owner does not want to return the chew toy for replacement then the pet owner should throw the

toy in the garbage. As stated above, if or when the red color is seen (assumes a pet has chewed through

the green/black), this is an indication that the toy design has been compromised and is no longer safe for

the pet to use as a chew toy.

 

In order for the “Goughnuts Safety Indicator” to be functional the chew toy itself has to have real

indestructible quality. This real indestructible quality will allow for enough time for the pet owner to

be able to see “Safety Indicating Color Change” before the chew toy’s integrity can be compromised.



Below is a test comparison between our GoughNut Black and our Original GoughNut Green. 
Please understand that regardless of how strong any chew toy is made, certain dogs
will chew through it.  Therefore, our two layered patent pending safety design is incorporated in our
GoughNuts Black.  The two layered patent pending design gives a clear indication when the Goughnut
Black turns color from Black to Red it is time to take the GoughNut Black away from your dog.  Every
GoughNut toy is guaranteed and when any red is seen, this indicates that the diameters of the toy are
damaged.  Please read the entire patent online to understand the details of our two layered patent
pending design.


Please note that the The Original GoughNut has a cross section of 1.75".  Physical properties shown
below are measured in PSI or pounds per square inch.



The test results shown follow ASTM methods D412, D2240, & D624 (seen in sections 9.01 & 9.02)


                                GoughNuts Green                                            GoughNuts Black   

Tensile                    3500 PSI                                                            3800 PSI

Tear Die C              140 PSI                                                               180 PSI

Hardness                43                                                                        48 




The GoughNuts Black properties are higher.  The hardness will hold your dogs jaw open more than
the Green taking leverages away that lessen the dog's power.  The higher tear strength and tensile strength
testing show the GoughNut Black increase in physical properties.


Our goal is safety.  The additional of carbon technology incorporated with the GoughNuts base recipe
allows for the additional strength of the GoughNut Black.  Please adhere to the two layered patent
pending technology.  Please take your GoughNut away if your dog can chew through the Black or
Green layer to expose the Red.


Yes it is a little more that other chew toys, but your pups safety is worth it! Plus it has a guarantee,
how can you go wrong! 


The Guarantee:

GoughNuts Guarantee - If your dog chews through the outside wear layer, Green or Black, to expose the

indication layer, Red, GoughNuts will replace your toy.  GoughNuts patent pending, "Chew Toy Safety Indicator"

is a mechanism for the dog owner to see a clear indication of when to take the GoughNut from the dog. 

 

Return Procedure - If you see a red indication, return the GoughNut to:

 

GoughNuts LLC

217 Lois Ave

Modesto, CA 95350

 

Please include a check for $4.75 that covers the prioroty shipping of a new GoughNut back to you. 

We will evaluate the toy damage and return a new toy.  This return or guarantee policy is one of

Goughnuts commitments to your dogs safety.  Please do not allow your dog to continue chewing the

GoughNut if red is indicated.  The safety premise is designed to give clear indication to show when the

toy is damaged and is and instruction or indication to take the GoughNut away from the dog.  Following

this instruction or visible indication is a design to help prevent intestional blockage.  Intestional blockage

is a serious safety issue and in worst case scenarios can kill your dog.

 

In general a chew toy is designed to withstand the aggresive chewing of your dog.  The GoughNut is

designed with diameters that are sized to make it difficult for your dog to destroy or damage the GoughNut. 

Please read the entire pending patent called, Chew Toy Safety Indicator" on line.  It is important to know that manufacturing like life is not perfect.  Therefore whether a chew toy has a defect or your dog simply has

the power to destroy a toy, as soon as the original design of the toy is compromised the toy must be

taken away from the dog.  This instruction will help keep your dog safe. 

 

Any red indication is an indication to take the toy away.  We will only congratulate you for taking the

toy away when the samllest amount of red is present.  Many dog owners have followed our patent

pending instruction showing us that the premise is working.  Please make every effort to keep your

dog safe.  No chew toy is indestructable.

 

Safety, Safety, Safety - We want your damaged GoughNut back.  This is our investment into your

dogs safety.  Every dog owner has the responsibility to check the toys that your dog is chewing.  All

toys should be taken away when damaged to help prevent blockage.  Please contact me or your

veterinarian for further discussion.


**Please note that the guarantee is provided by the manufacturer (Goughnuts) only.

 

Correct sizing is as important as any safety feature.  Choose a chew toy that is big in your dogs mouth. 

The chew toy should appear large in your dog’s mouth.  When you have a doubt about what size

to choose, please ask a pet professional for help.  As a rule make sure the chew toy is larger in size

than the distance between your dogs back molars when measuring across the jaw.

  

damage goughnut  Correct time to take the toy away - Red Indicator.  This is an example of a dog
owner that did a good/correct job at taking the GoughNut away from the dog when red was indicated. 
Please realize that this amount of red is not more than 1/8 inch in size.  The red clearly shows even
though the indication size is quite small.  Please use this example to realize that we do not want to
 see excessive damage before the toy is taken away.  This GoughNut was well loved.  This damage
was made by an 100 pound blond lab.  Any time we get a toy back we are very happy in realizing
that our patent pending "Chew Toy Safety Indicator" is working.

These pictures were sent to me by a customer and this was the note:

"I purchased a goughnut about a week after I purchased a kong, and I'd have to say this is the best toy for
a power chewer. Here are some pics to show the difference in damage done to the kong vs the goughnut after
having both for almost a month or so."

Best toy ever for tough chewers!
Christina Anderson (Hubbardston, MA) 11/22/2009 6:25 PM
I bought this toy from your booth at the Whisker Walk and I must say it is the best toy I have ever purchased. My dogs Cajun and Sam can destroy a toy in 20 minutes, even the ones that claim to be indestructible. I am happy to say that almost 6 months later this toy is still completely intact and it is their favorite. I will be ordering another for their Christmas stocking for sure.
