hard chewer. The fragments cut up his intestines and it cost me $2,200.00
for 3nights on IV from vomiting and bloody stools. He had a complete
lower GI series which showed grit fragments in his lower intestines.
The only cause had to be the nylabones. My vet said never to give
these types of things to small dogs. Rawhide neither.
They are very dangerous. If your dog chews them and has no problem
you lucky but you never know and it's just not worth the risk.
The label does state TINY FRAGMENTS COME OFF AND SHOULD PASS
THREW BUT THEY DON'T TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THEY DON'T.

I didn't realize you were talking about the non-edible ones; Joey hasn't even made a dent in these. In that case, I wouldn't recommend the edible or non-edible nylabones. Have you told the company about this?
