them to bleed and send them to the ER to be hooked up on IV for
three days not knowing if they will live or die. I know this for a fact
because it happend to Buddy. I feel better telling all of you this but
you do what you want. You never had a problem with one you say
neither did I until Buddy woke up throwing up blood and had a stool
the color of tar at 2oam. I rushed him to the ER and they couldn't
keep him from vomiting. They found, after extensive tests, grit in
his lower intestines which is where the bleeding was coming from.
They found this doing an uppper and lower GI series. The grit
was from the Nylabones he had been chewing on his first year
of life. $2,220.00 later he was fine and came home on the forth day.
They should be taken off the market. Your dog is chewing plastic
and when these tiny slivers of glass, that should pass threw
and don't they cut your dog up inside.
I would never ever buy another product that Nylabone makes even
the digestable ones. A beef bone is all natural and safe to chew
on and provides the chewing needed for you puppy or dog.
Don;t take a chance and let this happen to you beloved pet.
Great post!!

I too will never give one of those to my pups. I read the fine print when I
first bought one, and needless to say it went right into the trash!
So sorry that Buddy had to go through that, what a nightmare for the both of you!

Your are 100% right, they have no business being sold as chewies!!
