the soup bones- well- why don't you try and find the chewy they call 'cow hoof"( I have heard they ARE A COW'S HOOF-don't know that , though! They are tough, NOT TO $$$$$, last pretty good, and would be good for a pup that is teething! Try one and see!
the worst bones are the cooked bones, but none or good1 |
Not True. Dogs and cats are carnivores. And while cooked bones can splinter, raw bones do not. Dogs and cats ate raw bones in the wild long before human invented kibble in the 1950's. Also, carivores have a special tough lining in their stomach and duodenum that prevents bones from perforating it. Many people have their dogs and cats on raw diets, including eating raw bones, with no problems
