Sue,
Baili does the same thing! She manges to take my daughter's 95lb lab's
rawhide and hides it in her favorite place! It is almost bigger than she is.
We LOL at her draging it around.

What about pig's ear's???

Ok somebody stop me if I am wrong.
I heard that you shouldn't give your dogs rawhides because alot of them come from third world countrys and could cause your dog to get really sick. Every package I have ever looked at comes from a third world country.....I usually buy greenies for Toby, he loves them. (they even smell pretty good to me

) But they are pretty expensive, so I cut them in half.

I was told not to give rawhide to Princess
She has lots of Nylabones, and she loves them.
You might want to give them a try.

Pig ears can do the same thing, that's why they make imitation pig ears that are flavored. I'd be wary of those as well.

also, I recommend Corn starch Velvet Chews by Booda. You can find them at PetsMart. They crumble into your dogs mouth as he chews on them, is digestable(sp), come in various flavors, and come in bimples as well to help massage the gums and help with the teeth. Tigger loves his. he got it sunday and chews on it for five minutes at a time. I've heard good things about them and people seem to like them. they're a lot safer then rawhide and pig ears. he he he bully sticks how grosss.....
