I watched her pretty carefully the first couple of days to make sure no larger pieces came off that could be a choking hazard and they seem pretty safe considering her particular chewing habits and ability. Each one is about 3-5 inches long and one will last her several days. When she gets one down to a size think she might be able to choke on I give her a new one and throw the old one away. AN aggressive chewer or maybe a bigger dog might need something a bit more substantial- and they might need to be supervised if the dog can chew hard enough to make bigger pieces come off. But for Roxie-they seem to be a great healthy alternative. The company that makes them is Blue Ridge Naturals. And they are called "Sweet Tater Fries" The only ingredient is "Dehydrated Sweet potatoes"If you're interested I got them at Petco.
You can also make them at home with a dehydrator.
