I gave Greenies to my dog until my vet told me that she personally, had to save her 10 pound shih tzu's live because he choked on a greenies. Apparently they are just the right size that when they are broken in 1/2, it's very easy for that piece to get lodged in a dog's throat.
I no longer give me dog's greenies. It's also possible that if you have the smallest size, your dog may be so excited to eat it that she doesn't chew it and it gets stuck in her throat. I've heard several stories about this. I think you are best off not giving it to her. |
