If i do give them bones ill give them bigger ones from now on b/c i kno he is really hard on them really fast. I did buy some green bones that they are supposed to eat for teeth and my mom gives them to her scottie and his teeth are blindingly white..of course he is pure black lol so that may have to do with it..but once i know timmys meds are done and he seems fine i may start giving him and spice one of those to split once in a while.
gotta love small dogs...they REALLY are babies~!  |
be careful with greenies as they did change their formula but with him being in a puppy mill and devouring food and bones i would be very careful with him - when mine chewed on pizzles their teeth were great but i had to stop that after the pancreatitis i was too nervous as they felt real greasy but always did them supervised as they could choke on the little nubs
