Have you ever had that feeling when you’re eating your favorite food and your dog is giving you the look? This is the one. It’s that “Hey, Where’s Mine?” look. The gourmet pooch in your family will be happy to hear that natural Dog bones are available! It’s not just a regular chew toy. You can think of these chewable treats as nature’s treasure troves.

Now, you might be wondering why you should swap those bright-colored, artificially-flavored store-bought treats for natural bones. Let’s start with dental health. You should also take care of those beautiful pearly teeth! Mother Nature created a toothbrush for dogs when they gnaw their bones. This helps remove tartar and plaque. You’ll have a healthier mouth and fresher breath. And no need to duck those canine licks. Let’s face the fact that no one enjoys being kissed by breath that smells like skunk.

Zen dogs chew. Seriously! Did you know that dogs will often calm down when given something to chew with? You could say it’s their yoga class or version of deep-breathing. Natural teeth give them something secure and pleasing to work their mouths on. This will help to calm down fidgety behaviour. Then, give your pup a chewy bone to calm them down.

It’s time to face the elephant. Safety! It’s not all bones that are good for dogs. It’s possible for some bones to break if you don’t source them carefully. Fluffy’s stomach should be happy and healthy. Don’t give your dog raw bones. They don’t tend to shatter and they are better on their digestive system. Naturally, you must supervise your dog. As you wouldn’t allow a small child to be left alone with a sweet bowl, don’t forget about your pets with their bones.

Now let’s discuss stock. Not all dog bones are the same. Lulu’s tiny Chihuahua will be different from Hercules. The bone should match the dog’s chewing pattern and size. Some dogs nibble gently, while others chew voraciously, like the ones in the movie, “Gone with the Bone.”

You can also introduce them slowly if your pup has a sensitive stomach. Begin with a few chews to gauge their reaction, then progress. Just like a test before diving into the deep end. After they are comfortable you may find they want more.

Speak to other paw-parents if you still have doubts about trying bones. Get the scoop on what other dogs thought of these treats. It’s true that our dogs can be as finicky as a kid in a veggie aisle.

This is one way to invest in the health and happiness of your dog. If your dog gives you the “where’s me?” look, then next time he does it to you, be prepared. When your dog gives you the “where’s my?” Come on my friends, come on!
