Answer three quick questions for a tailored verdict.
Handling and Feeding Tips
Take it away once it's small enough to swallow whole - that's the real risk, not the chew itself. Count the calories in your dog's daily food allowance.
What to Watch Out For
High in calories, so account for them in your dog's daily food intake. Supervise chewing and take away when the stick becomes small enough to swallow whole. Source from reputable suppliers to ensure no additives or chemicals.
Best For
All ages and sizes. Puppies from 12 weeks once they have their adult chewing instinct. Giant breeds need thicker sticks.
