Are these good for people who have dogs? I'm worried that my dogs will claw at this and that would be the end of it...

My two german shepherds leave it alone- very strong material though, and I wouldn't worry about it

We have two dogs and it hasn't been an issue. Could depend in breed of dog too. Love the pool! Also bought a salt water chlorinator from Amazon - keeps the water clear with no hassle.

Cant help because I don't have a dog that would get close but if you have a big dog they might be able to puncture it because the pool lining is exposed with no plastic covering.

We have a beagle puppy and have not yet had a problem. The sides are relatively smooth and are very heavy gauge vinyl, so it would have to be a very determined dog to claw or bite through the pool.

Kazaam, I'm honestly not sure how your dog would handle the Dentastix. I just know they do seem to have helped my dogs control their tarter and get better (not glowing like I imagine they would be if I took the time to brush their teeth every day) reports from the vet. If you are concerned about sensitive gums then I recommend buying one of the smaller packs you can find at your local pet store or grocery and trying it out. If that works out I suggest you buy and use as a daily treat and see what the vet says about the condition of your dog's teeth on the next visit. I'm assuming you buy treats anyway so why not substitute one of these for a few others you might normally give? They shouldn't hurt your dog and if they help then all the better.

No. Those are perfect for small dogs but cats won't bite apart large pieces like dogs do....I've tried making cat treats and I couldn't get one cat to eat them! lol....I hope it turns out better for you :-) Greta

As of 4.10.2014 there has not been an answer that tells me how well these preform on their dogs. If I had used one on my wife we may have been able to avoid our sad divorce, lol. I have a service (Hearing-ear) dog that barks to signal me, but sometimes she does not stop when I want her to. I owe this dog my life and do not want to harm or frigten her, but there are times when I would like to have her stop barking when I want her to.

I think he'll be just fine, especially since he is a puppy. One of my dogs is just over 20 pounds and she does great with them. More important than the size of the dog would be the condition of his teeth and the strength of his bite. Since yours is a puppy, these may work until he needs the larger size. Another option is to buy the larger size and just give him half a stick. They break easily.

Not me, but my dog is more of a claw-er and less of a chewer. It seems pretty sturdy to me, I would be super impressed if your dog chewed out. My neighbor has the same one for his pitbull (who tore out a giant chunk of drywall) and it's withstood her tendency to destroy things.

One of my dogs will eat them, but not with gusto. The other one won't touch them. So they will be with us a long time. However, I have never known dog treats like this to go bad -- or more bad.

They should hold up to chewing just fine however they are easily displaced from the holder (which I personally like, makes it easier to remove for adding food, washing, etc) so if you think they'd play around with them.. maybe go for something that locks in.

I believe they would be a choking hazard for a large dog. Especially if the dog is playful and interested in the cats toys.

I would not recommend it unless the dog is small and you cover the floor with a towel to help prevent claw punctures. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't worry too much as they take a while to break down my pug had one for a good two wks and that's chewing daily. If you're worried about weight try antler chews they are rock hard and so good for them , but they'll take years to make a dent in !

You should be fine with the dogs. It's a light material but very strong. My dogs do the same thing and weight around 100lbs . Hope this helped.

If you secure them on properly then they shouldn't be able to be pulled off by your dog. Now if you are asking if the material can be chewed off then I'd say its possible if you have a dog that's a chewer. When I first put them on mine he is constantly trying to chew them off, so I have to make sure he isn't playing with them. The quality is great, so as long as you're not letting your dog mess around with them then they should hold up.

I do not know whether or not they can be used for dogs. I know they are great for people.

I don't believe so. You might have to check with companies customer service. I have small children and dogs that have chewed them and haven't had any problems. Again, I would check with the company.

Nora, I have 3 large dogs and I bought them in Jan. 2013, they are a tough little ball and for a small dog, you should have these for a good long while. They are easy on the teeth and easy to find since they glow in the dark. Hope this helps in making your decision.
