Chewing root Torgas

The unique and natural chewing toy for dogs - test winner in the TV programme "HundKatzeMaus"

Robust & Natural TORGAS ®

Chewing roots are an extremely resistant chew toy made of untreated root wood. Even when heavily gnawed, the root remains intact and offers healthy and long-lasting chewing fun for all dogs who like to gnaw.

TORGAS ® & Health

For dogs, gnawing and chewing is a species-appropriate way of occupation and stress reduction. With Torga this need to chew is satisfied without additional calorie intake. TORGAS ® chewing roots are ideal for dental care, calming in stressful situations and for puppies in the change of teeth.

Natural product from Portugal

TORGAS come from the mountains of central Portugal and are handmade there from the root tuber of a native heather species. During processing, the root is carefully trimmed and smoothed by hand to obtain a firm surface without sharp edges. Taking into account the shapes given by nature, each TORGA becomes unique.

TORGAS ® - Quality

Due to their durability, naturalness and aesthetics, our TORGAS ®  are very popular with dogs and dog owners. For the production of our TORGAS ® chewing roots we use selected especially robust root material. Every single TORGA goes through a careful quality control.

TORGAS ® chewing roots are available in different sizes

When choosing the size, individual characteristics and preferences of the dog should be taken into account. Of course, the biting strength is important, but also the stamina and age of the dog.

 

The history of TORGAS ®

The heather root sculptures from Berno Plorin's sculpture workshop, created in the Portuguese summer studio, aroused the interest  of his female dog"Bica". She secretly stole one, ran outside the house into the sun and began to gnaw on it. "The thing was quite robust, hardly a chip could be removed from it. She carried "her" root sculpture around again and again and tested it anew - a new dog toy, the "Torga chewing root" was invented!

Vegetarisch

Vegetarisch bedeutet gezielt der Verzicht auf Fleisch oder Fisch in der Ernährung. Im Gegensatz zu einer veganen Ernährungsform können dabei jedoch z.B. Eier oder Milchprodukte zum Einsatz kommen. Bei Unverträglichkeiten gegen bestimmte tierische Eiweißquellen kann eine vegetarische Ernährung beim Hund durchaus sinnvoll sein. Katzen hingegen können auf Dauer nicht gesund fleischlos ernährt werden.

    TORGAS

    Die Erfolgsgeschichte der Torgas Kauwurzeln hat ihren Anfang in Portugal. In der Bildhauerwerkstatt des Künstlers Berno Plorin, der gerade an Heidewurzel-Skulpturen gearbeitet hat, weckten diese Holzstücke das Interesse seiner Hündin Bica. Schnell wurde ihm bewusst, dass hier die Idee eines neuen Hundespielzeugs geboren wurde. Denn das Holzstück war nicht nur extrem robust und langlebig, es splitterte auch nicht.
    Die Einführung in den deutschen Markt fand 2006 ein. Gerade wegen der Naturbelassenheit und Dauerhaftigkeit erfreut sich die Kauwurzel seitdem größter Beliebtheit!
