| Chew sticks? A friend of mine has a pomeranian who *loves* chew sticks. I think they are made of rawhide and I'd read somewhere not to give rawhide to Yorkies. Do any of you guys give them to your Yorkies? Are there some good alternatives to chew sticks? Just looking for some fun chew treats for my Sophie |

| Never had a problem giving rawhide/cow hooves/ect to my dogs. I am always present though, when they are chewing on them. |

| My vet told me NO RAWHIDE at all. So Bella had these Beff Tendon spirals, that she just LOVED and the place that sold them to me said they were not rahide. Well I got a little concerned since she seemed to cough more at night while chewing on these and took one to her Dr visit yesterday. The Dr said they are just like rawhide and not to use them. She said it can be very dangerous to yorkies and to any dogs
