When you have a puppy, it can be very overwhelming and stressful to know which food, treats, and chews they can enjoy, as well as those that should be avoided. Puppies can be very excitable, leading them to eat extremely quickly and potentially choke on their food. Rawhide is guilty of this. When swallowed, the rawhide does not fully digest in a puppy’s stomach which can cause potential blockages.
A safer option to introduce to your puppy are bully sticks. They are highly digestible and softer than rawhide, ensuring your puppy is much less likely to choke on his chew. Bully sticks are also natural, single-ingredient chews so you don’t have to worry about any artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors harming your puppy’s diet.
Finally, if you’re still nervous about purchasing bully sticks for puppies, try using a bully stick holder! This way, once your puppy is almost done chewing the bully stick, the last inch or so cannot be swallowed.
