    I disagree. they can block and I once saw on emergency vets on animal planet that a girl was playing with her golden retriever and threw a stick and it got caught in his mouth and they had to surgically remove it. it can puncture the stomach and do so much damage.

    Please just be careful not to let your pup swallow the peices she chews off.

    Too many foreign objects can cause blocking and that can turn into an emergency quickly.

    Even if they don't actually swallow the stick pieces you need to be careful because sometimes they can chip teeth or damage their gums while chewing sticks.
