The award-winning and New York Times bestselling book about a cat named Wabi Sabi who searches for the meaning of her name Wabi Sabi, a little cat in Kyoto, Japan, had never thought much about her name until friends visiting from another land asked her owner what it meant. At last, the master says, "That's hard to explain." AndThat is all she says. This unsatisfying answer sets Wabi Sabi on a journey to uncover the meaning of her name, and on the way discovers what wabi sabi is: a Japanese philosophy of seeing beauty in simplicity, the ordinary, and the imperfect. Using spare text and haiku, Mark Reibstein weaves an extraordinary story about finding real beauty in unexpected places. Caldecott Medal-winning artist Ed Young complements the lyrical text with breathtaking collages. Together, they illustrate the unique world view that is wabi sabi.

Name holds true.
Size: Large Triple
Just bought my second set of these.. first set lasted my healer almost 4 years and are still together but starting to split at the smaller seams so you can’t play as aggressive as my dog would like. We bought the second set and now she has her second wind! She loves tugging and I love knowing this toy will last a good while especially with an active dog!

My Aussie loves this bone!
This wishbone is so durable! My Australian shepherd is a big cheese and this is her go-to chew toy. It's a fave! She has spent HOURS chewing on this bone and it has held up super well. It has no smell but understand she can taste the flavor of it. I love having something she can chew on that is safe for her that she enjoys. Great value.

Durable, Great Value Dog Bone!
We’ve ordered several of these that have lasted for months, and my dogs are still working on them. Months. That alone feels like a small miracle. Normally, chews last about 10 minutes. Not this one. This thing is built like it trained for battle. It keeps them busy, satisfied, and focused on something that is actually meant to be chewed.
And the best part? It’s way more affordable in the long run. Instead of constantly buying new toys, chews, or replacing destroyed shoes, this one just keeps going. Definitely worth every penny and then some.
If you have determined chewers, this is the chew/bone you’ve been looking for.

Dog loves this
My dog absolutely loves the shape of these and will play with it for hours. The material is pretty durable too, though he is a big lab so over time chewed away the top nubs. Eventually tossed it at that point, but got great use out of it before. No bad smell and my pet really enjoys playing with it. It’s not too big either and is really easy to take with you on trips, etc. have bought multiple!

Dog liked it, chewing cat did not
My dog liked it, but I actually got it for my cat that insists on chewing on everything. However, he refused to chew on this toy. He sniffed it once and walked away. So, for dogs I guess it's a decent chewy...
