| Recommend a chew treat or toy... Okay I need some suggestions on a new chew treat/toy. I want something tough for him to chew on but still 100% digestable. Here's what i've tried so far and what bunjee thinks of it. Nylon Bone - he doesn't like Greenies - well, not 100% digestable so no sense in getting it for him DentaTreat - he's tired of it Flossies - he still likes but not as facinated anymore Bully Stick - he's tired of it Pig Ears - his latest obsession, but i'm limiting his consumption Rawhide - well, it's not recommended for yorkies anyways Kong - he still likes it, but only when it's filled What other options do i have. I want something tough for him to chew on to help loosen the remainder of his baby teeth. thanks. |

| I know you have tried Nylabone But have you tried the flovored ones? Nylabone Carrot Bones Healthy Edibles™—All Natural Bones Provide a Wholesome, Satisfying Chew No sugar, starch or salt No plastics added No color additives Helps fight tartar and plaque Individually packaged Nylabone Carrot Bones contain 50% real carrots and are 100% natural. Low in calories, but big in carrot flavor. Here's Pet Edge's site: http://www.petedge.com/shopping/prod...ctID=1203&AS=1 They also have a ton of other flavors. My kids love the carrot and the peanut butter.

| Paddywacks - they are 100% beef tendon. My Millie is addicted to these. http://www.globalpets.com/ProductDet...000-1104356118 I give her one a day. She will sit on my lap and chew, chew, chew! |

| Excuse me for butting in on this thread, but when do their baby teeth start falling out?

| I give my Tiger these all natural tendon/muscle sticks and to ensure he does not choke when it gets to the end, I attach it to a clamp . . . and the best part, the sticks don't STINK! |

| I took one of my husband's old t-shirts and tore it into strips about 15 inches long. Then I tied a few knots in it and played tug of war. The t-shirt material is stretchy but still pulls softly on their teeth. It worked great for Reuger. He still loves to chew on it and play tug of war. He had a couple of teeth that were really stubborn about coming out and playing tug of war really helped to loosen them up so they could come out. Hope this helps.
