Did You Know?

Did you know that most dogs don’t stop chewing after they reach adulthood? It’s a common myth that only puppies chew, as adult dogs actually do enjoy chewing on things, too. Chewing helps exercise the jaw muscles, clean the teeth, and is a good outlet of stress for dogs. If your dog likes to chew, you should provide dog-safe chew toys for them at all times to discourage chewing on your furniture or shoes!

Bully sticks, recreational raw bones (not cooked), Kongs and synthetic tough bones such as Nylabones are all good toys to encourage healthy chewing in your dog, as Emily and Blaze demonstrate below!

Have a happy and safe Labor Day!
