Charlie is about 5 1/2 lbs. Charlie can not eat those green teeth cleaning bones. Balls of it gets stuck in his stomach and he throws it up a couple days later after days of no eating or pooping. Poor baby.

Greenies are bad news, you lucky he drew them up. Have a bag here and i will not give them to my babies !!!!

Hi!,
This is in no way an intention to defend greenies. Just want to know what you meant by "you lucky he drew them up". Oh, gosh, now I see. It was a typo, you meant chew! Thanks for your concern. I watch his poop every day for any signs of trouble. He does chew them thoroughly but I would never recommend them to others because of the troubles so many dogs have had with them.

I quit giving him rawhide chews because of the risk of ptomaine (according to my online dictionary is A basic nitrogenous organic compound produced by bacterial putrefaction of protein) Not that it would make him sick necessarily but it could make us sick. Had I known of greenie dangers before I first gave them to him I would never have started. One summer when we were camping I met three Yorkies who had lost their teeth and their little tongues were hanging out! Even with the chewing and brushing I still take him to get his teeth cleaned from time to time. Our big chow/golden Lab dog could eat anything. He used to get logs off the woodpile and make them into kindling. How different they are, dogs, that is.

Thanks for your note.

:eek: I am so sorry to hear that! I mean about the greenies. Wolf has trouble with lots of food. He only likes his doggie food anymore because of other food making him throw up. The exception is when I am eating chicken and then he gets some tiny pieces. We learned about Macadamia Nuts the hard way the Christmas after we got him. I gave him 3 halves and ended up calling the emergency poison center for dogs in the middle of the night. The doctor said we were lucky he threw then up and that he only had a small amount.:animal-pa

Welcome to Puyallup!!!!

Sorry i was not clear ! What i meant, alot of problems with some dogs eating them and forming blockage then needing surgery's ! Just too scary to take a chance... Rosi never had a problem eating them as she is not a gulper, but after reading soo many horror storys i just dont want to take a chance with them !

Hello, fellow Washingtonians. I usually post on the main boards, but wanted to see if these boards were busy as well.

My baby's name is Shankly. He is almost 2 yrs. old now and we got him from a breeder up in Everett. Shankly is used to being pretty much the center of our attention since we've got him. So spoiled.

We never neutered our baby because we would eventually like to breed him (at least once) for a pick of the litter. I don't know if that's possible, but we are interested in that.

You can see our lil guy in my signature link.

howdy!!!

WOW SMALL SMALL WORLD!

i am from puyallup as well. ;)
