Chew Bones? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I will have to check out the naked chews. Thanks.

They only get chew bones when I am around and can monitor them. They love their Kong - in the morning I stuff them with one broken puppy biscuit and some kibble and top it with some smooth natural peanut butter. Funny to watch them eat everything but the kibble.

I saw the Get Naked chews in Petsmart today! On sale for only $2.34 for the 6.2oz bags (I think they were normally $5.30). I grabbed two of them. They kind of smell though.... They seem a lot harder than the Dentastix which is a plus!

I can break the Dentastix in half, can't break these.

I gave one to Jackson and he must have thought it was something really special because he went and buried it and won't chew it

Hopefully he chews it tonight so I can see how long it lasts!

Oh that's a good price, were they the small or large size or were both on sale?

For a chew bone I will only buy bully sticks. Some brands of those are really smelly though. My 2 will carry them around all day and chew on them. Only thing i do not like is when they jump on the couch with one. THe smell lingers. Their are YT'ers that buy them on line and do not smell. When the bone gets to small i have to take them away. Anther thing to watch out for is that my 2 do not eat their regular food well when bully sticks are available. That is why I don't give them bully sticks too often.

When Rocco was a teething puppy, I'd wet a wash cloth, tie it in a knot and freeze it. He really loved those - just be careful it's a good thick one that he can't rip strings off.

Bully sticks and Himalayan chews and antlers are what Rocco gets now; I'd classify him as a very aggressive chewer. He has destroyed a Flexi Nylabone, and got sick when he swallowed some. He loves the dried sweet potatoes but once started to choke, so no more of those.

Regardless of your choice, supervision is key.

As soon as you wrote this I went out and bought a bag. I got the orange bag and YES THEY SMELL TERRIBLE LOL!!!! But Dolce loved it! And they lasted a LOT longer than those healthy edibles bones. Like 3 times as long. I just try not to let her chew it on my lap cuz of the smell, but she can chew it on the floor next to me so i can watch her lol. Good price too!

I ordered some Puppy Naked Bones for Max and Abby - they love them!!! Thanks so much for the suggestion.

I chop them in half and they each get half a treat. Takes them about 20 minutes to eat their piece (Max eats his a little faster than Abby and then sits and watches her - too funny).

Kizzie still loves the Get Naked Chews but we were at Petco the other day and she went wild for their Zukes Carrot Z-Ridge Dental Bone.. She's not an aggressive chewer yet being a young puppy so I can't say if it breaks off in chunks or not, but I liked the ingredients and would think(hope) that even if your dog swallowed a little chunk on accident it should digest ok..
