Automatically reordering chew toys: Here's how it will work in 2026

Automatically reordering chew treats helps you reliably plan your dog's supply. Those who order BARF chew treats based on intuition often buy too early or find their drawer empty.

Set a fixed ordering schedule once. Then, reordering in 2026 will happen almost automatically, without an app or subscription.

Why a regular ordering schedule is important

Running out of chew toys isn't the end of the world. However, it often leads to impulse purchases of the wrong size or with an unsuitable chewing duration.

Observe how quickly your dog learns a Chewable items depending on chewing duration consumed. This is how you set a rhythm that matches actual consumption.

The principle is simple: calculate consumption, set the interval, configure a reminder, and prepare the shopping cart. You set up the system once and then simply confirm the order.

Here's what you need before you start

• Knowledge of chewing time: Observe two to three chew treats. This will help you determine whether your dog chews quickly or slowly.
• A calendar or reminder app: Google Calendar, Apple Reminders, or a notes app will suffice. The important thing is a recurring reminder.
• Separate memories: Order hard and soft chew treats separately. Otherwise, different supplies won't run out at the same time.

Determine consumption and ordering frequency

1. Keep a record of how many chew toys your dog consumes per week. For many medium-sized dogs, this is one to two hard chew toys.
2. Assign each chew item to a short, medium, or long chewing duration.
3. Determine the interval. Short chewing times usually require one to two weeks, medium two to three weeks, and long three to four weeks.
4. Multiply your weekly consumption by the interval length. The result is your order quantity.

This gives you a fixed number of each type of chew toy. For example, six 20 cm bully sticks every four weeks.

The table is a starting point. Observe your dog for the first four to six weeks and adjust the interval as needed.

Set a reminder for reordering

1. Open your calendar app. Create an appointment titled "Reorder chewing supplies".
2. Choose the appropriate interval. Use weekly, every two weeks, or every four weeks.
3. Include product names and quantities in the appointment note.
4. Activate notifications at least two days before the appointment. This allows time for delivery.

The appointment will automatically appear in your calendar. You no longer need to remember the date.

Prepare your wish list and shopping cart

1. Create a wish list or bookmark directory for your standard chewing items. These include, for example... Beef scalp sticks 20 cm and horse tendons 10 cm.
2. Save the required quantities in the notes section of your shopping list. This way, you won't have to recalculate on the day you order.
3. Open your wish list on the reminder day. Check your shopping cart and complete your order.

Ordering takes less than five minutes on the reminder day. All products are already pre-selected.

BARF fresh meat can be ordered separately.

Dried chew treats will keep for weeks in the pantry. BARF fresh meat, once opened, will only keep for a few days in the refrigerator.

For raw meat, you therefore need a more frequent ordering schedule. You usually order weekly rather than monthly.

• Schedule a separate calendar appointment for fresh meat.
• Adjust the order quantity according to your freezer capacity.
• Check the contents of your freezer before placing any order. Don't blindly follow your memory.

Typical problems when reordering

The dog is eating faster than planned.

Shorten the interval in your calendar app by one week. Observe the new rhythm for four weeks.

Several chew toys are expiring at the same time

Separate the memories according to short, medium, and long chewing time. This will help you avoid constant partial orders.

The puppy needs different sizes.

Check your shopping list every eight to twelve weeks. Swap product sizes, for example from a 10 cm bully stick to a 20 cm bully stick.

The memory is overlooked

Set a second reminder one day before the actual appointment. This reminder serves as a buffer.

BARF fresh meat spoils before ordering.

Keep your ordering schedules for fresh meat and chew toys strictly separate. Fresh meat needs its own appointment.
