Dianne Barney has to be restricted since he has a history of pancreatitis (two episodes). We give him the soft nylabones - he likes the BBQ ribs and the blue dental bones the best. Teddy likes them too.

| Indy loves Nylabones. She has tons of chew toys around and chews on almost all of them.

| Rily loved his nylabone, but be careful because they will break!

| Sophie likes the nubby nylabones when she comes back from her evening walk. When my husband comes home from work every evening she runs to the closet were her harness and leash are then sits and paws the door. After her walk she grabs her bone. I throw them out when they start to look worn and give her a new one.

| When Lacie has all her toy options in front of her, she doesn't typically choose her nylabone. But she does chew on it, especially when it's getting close to bedtime and she just wants to lay down and chew on something. We give it to her when she wants to chew on hard furniture, cellphones, remotes, etc.

| Wish we could get our little guy to use a Nylabone (tried several different models). Instead he's been chewing on our wooden shoe (unpainted) shoe organizer. He apparently prefers that to any of his toys or Texas Toothpicks. |

| Levi use to love the big blue "nubby" ones, but he was really eating it. I got nervous that pieces could get stuck in his digestive track so I stopped giving him these.

| My Moka got the Wishbone Nylabone in the last GE. She absolutely LOVES it! Both of my dogs are aggressive chewers. How chewed up do you let the nylabone get before you all take it away?

| We use the nylabones. I just keep a close eye on them and when I see they are starting to get marks on them, in the trash they go. |

| Be careful with chewing on wood. Maddie had a blockage from swallowing a few pieces of wood from the fireplace hearth. Turned pretty serious pretty fast. |

| Mine loves the hard nylabones. My girl chewed on her hard nylabone so much that she scraped the skin raw around her mouth recently because of the multitude of chew marks on it. There was blood on her fur and everything!! Needless to say I threw it away immediately. Now i'm going to be worried about infection. I would stick to flexible and rawhide chews. |

| Both of mine love them (the non edible ones). I inspect them often to make sure they are still safe and they go in the trash if there is any question. The ones I get have a "flavor" such as chicken or something.

| Rawhide chews are hazardous! As for the nylabones...if you get the nylabone dura chews your pup should not hurt himself. The trick with them is to remove them as soon as they start to show wear and tear.
