Blurb:
Everyone remembers their corner milk bar: the milkshakes, the memories, and the mixed lollies. Chock-a-bloc, richly nostalgic, and colourfully illustrated, The Milk Bars Books will take you back to those hot summer afternoons when you met your mates at the milk bar and spent your hard-earned pocket money on a bag of mixed lollies, an ice cream, or a milkshake — the place of childhood dreams. Documenting these sweet and colourful family-run institutions, author, collector, designer, and photographer Eamon Donnelly has dedicated over a decade to capturing the faded facades, sun-kissed signage, and inviting interiors of milk bars and corner shops from all over Australia. Featuring photography of shopfronts, signage, and interiors, archival ads of snacks and sweets, milk bar history, and family memories from behind the countertop, The Milk Bars Books celebrate an iconic Australian invention that for generations has helped shape our suburbs, supported our communities, contributed to our diverse culture, and given generations of children that glorious childhood experience of the milk bar. Take a trip down memory lane to the days when there was a friendly milk bar on every corner. Successfully funded via a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter in April 2018 and winner of a Silver Medal at the Australian Printing Industry Creativity Awards in the offset book printing category [2019].

Keeps my dog busy
My dog has so much fun getting peanut butter out of this chew! It has small holes so it makes them put a little more effort than a typical chew. I would say it keeps them occupied for at least 15-20 minutes and they get pretty tired after. I think it's a good size for my medium dog. One thing i wish they did was making it with a silicone rather than nylon. It does get chewed off and I don't like the fact that they are ingesting them. All in all it's a great design to keep than busy.

Seriously durable
I have 3 XXL dogs (how convenient this comes in a three pack!). They will destroy many toys marked for aggressive chewers, but not these. Plus, they are good sized, leaving room for me to hold them while they are chewing when I elect to do that. I don't really smell anything in the toy itself. Maybe the dogs do, but not enough to keep their interest more than a few minutes. However, when I smeared it with peanut butter, it was a whole new story. All 3 of them LOVED that and spent some time getting every last morsel of peanut butter out of the toy. In the meantime, because of the honeycomb texture, I feel they were getting a decent dose of tooth cleaning as well. I wish the texture were a little deeper to fit more peanut butter, but I suppose it is probable that would make the surface texture less durable. My dogs like them, so I do too!

Best chew toy for a small dog
My Pomchi puppy was chewing on anything and everything, including me. He had a million other toys that he just didn’t care about. This is small and perfect for his tiny, ferocious mouth. It seems very durable so far and believe me, he doesn’t go easy on this thing. It’s hard enough that I can tell it feels good on his tiny, razor sharp teeth. The bone keeps him busy all throughout the day, and it doesn’t squeak, which is good because squeaky toys freak him out. I highly recommend this if you have a tiny, teething monster.
