Any chew toy can be a potential hazard to a dog and that is why a responsible company that makes toys for pets will put a warning on the toys. It is certainly up to the owner to decide if they will comply or not.
In the many years that I have had dogs I never had one that was the least bit interested in a nylabone but I suppose dogs that like to chew plastic would be attracted to them. |
Yeah, that's what was worrisome to me. Especially because he did it so fast. And then once it's at this point, he won't chew on it anymore, because it hurts him (sharp edges). They are too expensive to last for 30 minutes tops.
Funny thing is, he loves plastic! He's always finding water bottles and their caps, or my sisters Barbie dolls, LOL. But Nylabones have always pretty much been a no go.
I was just hoping to find something that would last longer than bully sticks and be more cost efficient, but I guess if he doesn't like it -- he doesn't like. Last night, I put the nylabone in a big baggie with a piece of steak and water, then in the fridge, hoping some of the flavor would get on it. He licked it once or twice, and then left it, lol.
