Health & WellbeingWhat type of bones are recommended to keep dog's teeth healthy and clean? What are your thoughts on rawhide? My small dog will any brand bone without a problem but my big dog will swallow big pieces and ends up eating them in 3 seconds.
I don't recommend giving bones to dogs. They can break teeth when dogs chew on them, and if the dog swallows a big enough piece, it can cause a GI obstruction. I'm also not a fan of rawhide, and don't recommend them. If you want something to help with their teeth, I recommend dental chews. CET is a good brand of dental chews that are safe for them to chew on. You can also give them Hill's t/d as a treat. It's a dental food. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
