I have used the durahard Nylabones for yrs but did buy a gummy/rubbery one for my Sparky when he was a pup & my ShepX ate it & pooped it out. Thankfully it was the smallest one they make & she was big enough that it didn't cause a blockage. The Durahard can be seen on X-ray but the gummy/rubbery ones cannot. My wolfhound has gotten the large durahard nylabones basically shaved down to nearly nothing but the end left so I now watch for that & take them away before he can choke on it. The only problem I have really had with the durahard is that lillymae broke a tooth off on 2 occasions with it. I hope your baby will pass all the chunks that were chewed off. If there is any more symptoms that there may be a problem , your vet can & most likely will do barium x-rays & that will show where the chunk is lodged as the barium will stop at that point.
