Bruce loves greenies, but you have to be careful to make sure they are safe! (1) run your fingers over the greenie to make sure there are no loose slivers on them, (2) make sure they dog stays in the room with you while you are feeding it in case of choking, (3) if you are feeding anything like Greenies or nylabones be sure you know how to do the heimlich manuever for doggies...Here is how you do it: remember if your baby is ever choking first sweep their mouth with your fingers, if that does not work do this remembering the objective is to compress the lower chest forcibly to raise air pressure inside the chest to blow the foreign material out of the throat or the larynx. 1. Place dog on its side on a hard surface 2. Place both hands behind the last rib and press down quickly and firmly - release immediately and repeat rapidly several times. -Try to direct the force of your hands slightly forward - this will make your efforts more effective 3. gently open their mouth and sweep it out to retrieve the material they were chocking on 4. watch carefully to make sure they begin breathing normally 5. Immediately contact your vet and let them know what happened! |

Thats a great analogy, Dennis also goes nuts for them! I think he prefers the bits to the bone though. I use them as treats for after he gets a bath and brushed among other things. |
Gucci doesnt like the greenies. I bought a bag and I still have some around. I keep finding them and I just throw them away. I have also got her Nylabone and she did chew on them at the beginning but she lost interest. |
:D my Pudge loves greenies, I take it away from him when it get smaller. And as what other YT said....it keeps him busy for a while |
