Like I said, the dog I watch often (Boston terrier/Beagle mix) ... all of his Nylabones look worse than this. They never have the ends on them. To me, that means he ingested it all somehow. They end up looking like just a 5 inch stick .. it's hard to explain. But ya know how the ends, they make it look like a bone? Those ends are never there on his! lol. He's about 18lbs. I notice the owner buys new ones very often.

I was just hoping to have another option for him to chew, but I guess it's gonna be a no-go. I don't think they're particularly 'dangerous'. Which is why I was considering letting him chew on them... but oh well.
If they really could chew ends off, then they are dangerous. I have posted in many places how I feel about chews that dogs can ingest...I don't trust them. I don't care if they say they are digestible.

My pups who like to chew, gnaw on Dura Hard Nylabones all of the time without any issues....but if they bit ends off, out they would go. They could live without chewing.
