Better to give them something large enough they need to work at, than something small enough to snarf down without chewing. RAW bones are definitely good for teeth. My 13 y/o mix has beautiful white teeth, and neither of my dogs ever have stinky breathe. Unlike kibble, that leaves a residue on the teeth, RAW food is digested completely - because that's what their systems are designed to process. Also - rather than mixing kibble with the occasional RAW bone, why not just take the plunge and convert to feeding RAW meat and RAW meaty bones? Your dogs will love you for it.  |
Great information, I think regarding the wings and chicken necks, you have to just observe how they eat it. If you have a gulper then no they are not the best idea but most dogs will take their time and crunch them up. It takes my guys up to 30 minutes to eat a chicken wing and they are pretty careful
