Allie is 7 months & 6.4 lbs. and I am afraid to give her any type of edible chewie. I gave her a tiny greenie before and she put the whole thing in her mouth, I thought is was stuck ( she looked like the Joker from Batman) and got all nervous and took it away I was being a little neurotic as my husband calls me, but I didn't want her to choke. I hear people on here talk about bully sticks, is she old enough for something like this? Will she be able to chew and swallow it? I also read that when you give them treats like this it can replace a meal. But like my human kids I want them to eat their real food first before any treats. I want her to be able to enjoy something different every now and then, should I just relax and let her be a dog as my hubby would say??!!!
