To the NON raw feeders:

How often do you give your dog something to chew on? (raw or smoked bone, natural chew or other chew treat).

And what do you give them?

 

[Pam111]

I get pig ears when I go to the pet store, but that's only about once a month so they don't always have something. I used to give raw chicken legs fairly often but they haven't been on sale lately.

I get those big soup bones and give them to the dogs raw. I don't get them as often as I'd like, because they're hard to find at the grocery stores around here.

Banzai does not like raw (though I am currently tricking him by mixing ground turkey really really really well into his food, muuhahahahahah) so he gets chewies sometimes. He loves pig ears and will eat rawhide if it's been already started for him. Oh, and also some nylabones occasionally. But it's not a constant thing at all... once or twice a month maybe.

Chloe gets bullysticks and tracheas and Esophagus and Aorta's and I usually order around every 3 months and she gets one around every 3 weeks or so

I get her stuff from this place

 

[Punkygirl0101]

I give my dogs things like Busy bones, and Chicken jerkey. And recently I have been getting these Dental chews from Costco.

And I give a chew usually once a day, sometimes every other day.

 

[Dizzy]

As an when.

Varies from chews to stuffed bones to raw bones.

She loves sticks too when we're walking, but I try to discourage that.

 

[vanillasugar]

I know I feed raw, but I want to answer anyways I try to give Sierra something to chew on beyond her food about once to twice a week.

She gets marrow bones most of the time, frozen to last longer. Otherwise I'll give her bully sticks, smoked "tartar buster" bones (patella's I think). I don't give her rawhide, but I'll give her pigs ears if I know they're naturally sourced and not chock full of chemicals.

The little dogs like marrow bones. Aesop won't chew them, as they're too much work They also get raw beef ribs once a month or so, sooner if they're on sale. They get tracheas and these chews that look like a dehydrated strips of muscle..I try to give them each one once a week if possible..sometimes once every few weeks.

 

[corgipower]

Mine get hooves.

 

[Miakoda]

Mine get things about once a week. They usually get things like goat ribs, sheep ribs, duck necks, beef knuckles, and whatever venison or hog parts we have leftover.

I buy all my meat once a month at a awesome little butcher/meat market and the guy who owns it always throws in the goat, sheep, duck, whatever and occasionally some pork hocks and pig snouts and tails. I have to vary my days up when I go because I swear the dogs were starting to realize what day on the first of the month I went.

It varies greatly what I'll give my dogs to chew. I used to give raw hide bones but then I read that those can cause intestinal blockage, so i stopped buying them. My dogs like Greenies, Busy bones, Shorty likes the Pedigree Super Chews (Gigi is too small to eat them, they hurt her teeth). Usually when I go shopping I'll check out the pet isle of wherever I'm at and pick something out for them to chew on. I'd say they get something at least once a week.

they love the bones from the meat market. Or the busy bones which take them all of two seconds to eat.
