Safe Chew Bones for Dogs
Dogs have a natural chewing instinct, especially teething puppies. It's important for owners to give them safe bones that are designed for their particular needs, sizes and breed types. This stimulates the dogs' mental faculties, as well as gives them a way to stay busy.

My labrador likes to chew! I tried rahwide bones and pig ears, but he does not digest it well, and often has loose stool afterwards. There are also animal hooves, and my lab loves them. They are really hard to jew on.
