Buddybear had his first dental exam. To my shock and horror she listed bully sticks as an absolute no-no. Vet says they are too hard and can crack the enamel or even chip a tooth. She listed three other off the list items: bones, ice, and now I've forgotten the third. Everything he is to chew on must be flexable or some give to it.
What chew things do you give your baby?????
Nyla bone...doesn't like, kong that gets filled with treats.....nope, doesn't like......the puppy teething toys, nope, doesn't like.
She suggested pig ears and chopped up rawhide that resembles a puck. So I stopped by the pet store on the way home and got a cow ear as it was Waaaaay less greasy than the pig plus a chopped maple puck looking thing.
In two weeks Buddybear has 1-2 baby teeth to be pulled and his first cleaning.
