I'm guessing so but Coco just loves them. I think it's one of the only things left bringing much happiness to her life. We've stopped them but she begs for them every day. The problem is my wife bought her rawhide bones and then kept upping the ante and gave her rawhide bones with dried chicken jerky attached, etc. Stopping those has been hard. |
I won't do rawhide, period. But Jackson can chew on these:

I had to find *something* for him to chew on as he is the kind of dog who needs to be kept busy or else he finds trouble lol. We don't give every day. More of a once or twice a week kind of thing. But it's great for rainy evenings when he can't get his normal exercise. He is just not interested in things like Nylabones and I worry with the hard ones about cracked teeth etc.
Anyway, here are the ingredients.
