NEPTUNE CITY, N.J.--()--Nylabone, an iconic brand in the Central Garden & Pet portfolio (Nasdaq: CENT) (Nasdaq: CENTA), has received national recognition from two pet industry awards for its Gourmet Style chew toys. Crafted with bold bits of flavor roasted throughout, the chew toy collection won “Chew Toy Product of the Year” in the 2022 Pet Independent Innovation Awards and was selected as a finalist in the 2022 Pet Product News Editors’ Choice Awards.

“We created Gourmet Style chew toys to look different, chew different, and indulge even the most particular dogs with a distinctly sensational chewing experience,” said Glen S. Axelrod, President and CEO of Nylabone Products. “We’re extremely proud of this innovative chew toy formula, and we’re even prouder that it’s receiving such high praise from dogs, pet parents, and now—industry experts.”

Available in varieties for both adult dogs and puppies, Nylabone Gourmet Style chew toys are uniquely crafted with flavor bits you can see. These seriously savory chew toys combine delicious flavor with durable material to deliver chewing satisfaction that lasts. With three crave-worthy flavors to choose from—chicken, bacon, and peanut butter—the chew toys come in Nylabone’s iconic wishbone and stick shapes plus a puppy-exclusive femur bone shape. Gourmet Style and Puppy Gourmet Style chew toys are now available at select retailers online and in stores.

The Pet Independent Innovation Awards program is the industry’s most robust recognition platform for the innovators and leaders of the pet industry. The program is built to spotlight outstanding companies, services, and products within the rapidly expanding pet industry.

Pet Product News Editors’ Choice Awards are conducted by Pet Product News, a business-to-business publication covering the pet industry. A time-honored tradition, this annual awards program searches for pioneering pet products in the market. Winners from each category will be announced January 2023.
