It's so important to provide your puppy with the right outlet to chew, without the right chews a puppy will find their own chew items which normally means your expensive furniture. Dogs chew for a variety of reasons, it's an instinctual activity which all dogs should have the outlet to do. Chewing has many benefits, chewing releases endorphins (happy hormones), chewing can relieve boredom, chewing can help with dental hygiene.
It can be tricky to know which chews are good for puppies and which chews are safe to give a puppy. Often owners resort to building dental sticks which are filled with poor quality ingredients or even worse rawhide chews.
All chews should be given to your dog when supervised. Choose chews that are the appropriate size for your dog. Always provide fresh water during chew time.
Always read the label.
