What kind of chews are good for teeth

[dragondawg]

Teddy needs something other than raw bones to chew on to keep his teeth clean. he doesn't like raw bones. what else can I give him to chew that will help keep his teeth strong?

Harper brand of rawhide carried by Walmart. Mine get the chicken rawhide chips each morning. In fact they expect it.

Since your dog doesn't seem to like the raw bones it could be there is some tenderness in the mouth. Next yearly check up ask the Vet about the teeth, and if they need cleaning.

I was also wondering about the condition of his teeth, it could be painful to chew on hard items, for him. You could entice him to chew by putting a small amount of something yummy on the raw bone - ketsup, broth, peanut butter, etc.

I like all of Merrick's chews! My dogs favorites are bully sticks, texas toothpicks, lamb ears, and the twisted tendons.

I'd recommend Bully Sticks. They last a long time, and they are the only kind of chew I've given Marta (who has a sensitive stomach) that hasn't ever made her sick. They are pricey but I think they are worth it. My dogs love them!
