can you try the chewy sweet potato or chicken jerky treats from blue mountain? I got some that promote joint health. I do sit with her and give her it and hold one end for her but she gets to chew away. Im lucky she is not a big chewer, she has no interest in anything that isnt food related to chew.. |
I bought a bully stick last night for the first time at PetSmart. Our Buddy LOVED it! Chewed on it almost all evening and there's still 90% of it left! |
My girls like chews by Himalayan Chews. They are hard and are make of Yaks milk and smell like cheese. :) The girls love them! I also like like chew by Etta Says! They are very safe and break up into small pieces. |

Nevermind, I just saw the fat content on one brand was less than 1 percent, that's pretty good. |
I have always bought my girls bully's to chew, however my husband decided they needed something else and against my advice gave them rawhide. Maggie is a very aggressive chewer, she chewed off and swallowed some of the rawhide. A couple days later I was bathing and trimming the girls and I noticed something stuck on Maggie's bum. I pulled on it and it just kept coming (out of her bum) a twisted piece of rawhide followed by diarrhea. My poor baby! I was so glad that I had decided to bath them that day. I will never ever ever never give my babies rawhide again. Thank goodness she is alright, no problems, but it could have been much worse. I dont know why they sell something for pets to chew on that has the potential to kill them! Only bully's for chewing here. |

Mine chew on bully sticks, nylone type bones, Kongs, raw bones (I remove the marrow) or splint antlers. Occasionally they will get a pig ear 1 for the 3 yorkies to share and 1 for Buddy the golden. None of mine are aggressive chewers so I am not worried about them harming their teeth on antlers. |
I make homemade Dehyrated meat and fruit for mine, too. |
I've seen several mentions of removing the marrow from bones? Why? I thought it was good for them? |

I admit to being guilty of letting Sam have a rawhide. It's his extra special treat - only when I am brushing him out. It distracts him long enough to protect my fingers from him. He is an anxious chewer. When we are finished with brushing, I take the rawhide away and he gets treats and loving. I cut the soft/wet part of the rawhide in a zip baggie and it goes into the grooming bag until the next brushing. If he just needs something to occupy him and I'm doing something else, he gets a bully. |
Rawhides are bad hmmmmm k Yes stay away from them! :D |
