Pull an all-nighter
SUPER CHEWER
When the moon hangs low and the swamp starts to sing, there’s only one place tough pups dare to explore: Bow Bow Bayou. Super Chewer is heading deep into a world of gators, gumbo, and good-natured mischief—where the mud is thick, the toys are tougher, and every rustle in the reeds could be your dog’s next adventure. Grab your lantern and your bravest chewer, because the bayou is calling… and it’s ready to play rough.
