| Chewing Aids I apologize because I have been rather "needy" lately. My puppy is such a challenge! What can I give her to safely "chew" on. I do the bully sticks and love them, but seriously that breaks the bank. (lol, I buy them all the time, but she need something more in between "treats.) And she loves toys but they don't have enough substance to satisfy the chewing desire. So, I am looking for alternatives. Do any of you use nylabones? Or any of the "chew" toys like them or the ones made of plastic? Common sense tells me these can be dangerous, but bully sticks are not keeping her "chew" desires satisfied.

| How about a kong toy and you can stick a treat inside and it keeps them busy.

| We got some Himalayans chews from Ryan (2 posts up) as well we get our bullies from YT member AMD. My 2 love both and we switch on and off. I also gave mine Petstage toys when they were going thru the teething phase.

Yes, I give her the kong toy when she is crated. I may not be stuffing it right because she can either get the treat out right away and be done with it, or if I stuff it too good she gets bored trying and forgets it. She will however, chew on it when it is empty some. I have not tried the himmalyan chews. That may be where I need to go next. I lost my last puppy to a chewing accident, and I am extremely paranoid and extra cautious now. Thanks all!
