If Cooper is an aggressive chewer I would most diffenately not allow

stools and throwing up blood. It appears the slivers of nylabone, that
are suppose to pass, cut his intestines like slivers of glass.
He was very sick for 4 day's in the hospital.

The only thing I will allow is a natural white bone. Can be purchased
in any pet store. Some have sutffing which I remove. It's important
to make sure you get one that will fit the mouth of your pup.
It may take time for the pup to adjust with this new strange bone
since there is no flaver to it but it's safe and natural.
They can be stuffed with some peantbutter smeared inside or cheese
to entice them to chew.
