Laguna Niguel, CA – Many dogs love rawhide chews and rawhide bones but these popular treats may not be safe for dogs.
There are several factors to take into consideration. The first thing to consider is the dog’s chewing style. Rawhides are meant to be a long lasting treat which will gradually break down into small soft pieces over time.
But, if onwers have a dog that is considered a “strong” or heavy chewer, he is likely to bite off big chunks of the rawhide and swallow them. This is where the danger is. These chunks can quickly turn into a choking hazard and they can also obstruct the dog’s intestinal tract. Both of these unpleasant scenarios are life threatening.
