patricia Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Ok...Today I gave Flashy a Grandpaws...It was a huge hit...only problem...it lasted about 30 seconds...So I gave him another CET chew...well even watching him closely...he managed to sog that thing up and I pulled it out of his throat. Gave him his regular rawhide bone...we had some bleeding again...Oh boy...the problem continues...all he wants is to chew! Quote Patti-Mommy of Lady Sophia 7-28-92 - 8-3-04...

Guest FrostyBottoms Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Patti have you tried an Ostrich bone? They seem to be much softer than a raw hide (Vinny's teeth bleed with rawhide too) Ostrich bone just kind of crumbles away and it makes their teeth sparkle.

CaliforniaGreys Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Oh what the heck!! Poor Flashman. My dogs don't like the CET chews but with as soggy as they get, I'm always afraid they'll choke. This is a real problem with as much as this boy loves his bones. I've checked Petsmart a few times, but everything is either too hard or they'll be gone too quick.Thre has to be something out there, but then why are the gums still bleeding?

We will be in Michigan for the day tomorrow...there is a pet store on the way...I will check there...IF I can't find them there...I will have you give me the name of the store in Crystal Lake and I'll give it a whirl. Thanks again so much...I'm just afraid it will be right at dinner time when we get back in town tomorrow. Quote Patti-Mommy of Lady Sophia 7-28-92 - 8-3-04... LaceyLaine 8-2-94-12-5-07...

Guest FrostyBottoms Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Well, then that may be too hard too....can you fill an old sock with something stinky that he'd like to chew? Or is it the satisfaction of breaking it down that he likes? Poor Flashy! Have fun in Mi! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NevadasMom Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 How about something frozen in a Kong? The cold would also help if he started to bleed. Quote Carol-Glendale, AZ Trolley (Figsiza Trollyn) Nevada 1992-2008...always in my heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
