Good thinking Audrey! Years ago, our family would always give our dog a steak bone. Not anymore! The only ones they are allowed to have are knuckle bones or marrow soup bones, once a month. They don't splinter like the others. Mostly suck out the marrow! I can't find the Blue Rhino post! It was hysterical. Seems all the Pet Talk doggies love to slay and gut their stuffies I have to watch them, because they love to pull out and chew on the squeeker part and might choke. I have baskets full of the mortally wounded! Star loved the toy the Wiggly Giggly, till I read that the jingling balls inside contained a poisonous chemical, and one dog reportedly died from eating them. Suffice it to say, if she can put it in her mouth, Star will try to eat it!! Oh, we also had a very long post about rawhides. Seems to many dogs have choked on the slobbery, gummy pieces they pull off and it's just too scary!
