I don't know if I can leave her alone with that bone though.. says to only let her have it when I am there. (all the bones there said the same thing).

As for the raw bone thing it would had been a good idea years ago. Just I don't want to risk being the cause of that person getting sick when I could had chosen an alternative. If there was a way to disinfect her (safely) to keep germs low I wouldn't mind.. by disinfect I mean... like you know how we use hand sanitizer. I highly doubt they make that for dogs that could also go on the chin area where the water would drip down to.


Bacteria grows pretty fast, I know things tend to be blown out of proportions.. but I remember when I was younger we were shown how fast it would take for bacteria to grow if given the right conditions. So I just like to be clean about things.

Just don't buy rawhide or made in China!
