I have a Labrador. Don't the dogs try to eat the rocks?

We have a Chessie and she did not. But, because she has several water bowls, we prepare the water in a 2 liter jug. Actually, we use 2 sets of rocks in 2 jugs and rotate them. This works for us and is the best way to deal with yellow spots in the yard. Not 100% but good. A friend has greyhounds and one plays with the rocks. She uses the jug method too and it saves a lot of mess.

My dog normally likes to eat rocks but for some reason he leaves the rocks in the water alone. Doesn't even play with them goes and drinks and leaves them alone.

I suppose if your dog already eats rocks than it will eat these. They are an iron ore rock, they have no appeal to dogs other than they are rocks.

I have a German Shepard and a golden. They played with them at first, butt now they just ignore them

I have two labs,male and female, 9 & 10 yrs. Neither bothered touching the rocks in the bowl. It did help the lawn alittle but both labs started throwing up their food often after using rocks so I discontinued using them.....

I have a chocolate lab and he abuses that thing and it's held up better than I have thought it would. He does not did in it but chews it up and shakes it and drags it everywhere.

It's hard so the dogs won't eat it. I don't think dogs are dumb enough to break their own teeth.

No; they are stiff. Near the end your dog may separate the end tips by her chewing rhem.

nor sure. My dog is picky because of his allergies. Some days he loves these some days he wants nothing to do with them. Cleaning his teeth does not enter into it

Bones are about 3"x1". Most of the recipes produce softer treats. Not too crunchy or hard. So I don't think choking is a concern. My 60# lab has no problems with them.

My two dogs each have one of these bones and they go back to it over and over again. (They bury it in the couch all the time.) They love it. But their jaws are probably not as strong as that of your dog, since they're a black lab mix (70 lbs) and shepherd/husky mix (50 lbs.) But I think it's definitely worth a shot because the price is right and they have an awful lot of heft.

I would say yes. The grooves are at most an inch deep, and our lab mix really only uses her tongue.

Yes. My lab chews everything up as well. These toys seem to hold up very well.

Do not know! These chews are wonderful! Not easy for a dog to gulp. They are very hard so that to me freezing would not be necessary, and might change the taste! My dogs, LOVE these better than any chews, and I feel that they keep their teeth free from dental problems.

Yes they are. I give them to my dog as her treat, although I'm not sure most dogs would see them that way. She will eat anything.

No. He doesn't mind the taste of it and they make it safe for the dogs to swallow since they plan on dogs swallowing it.

I don't think so. I live in NE PA & we've been getting very cold temps lately. My Chihuahua mix was more concerned with the rock salt than the cold. He doesn't seem to mind the cold on his paws as long as he's bundled up with heavy clothing. Lined booties are probably the only thing if your dog needs warmth for his paws.

I have given these types of bones to both my lab mixes since they were a little over a year old, and pieces do chip/break off. If they break a large piece off, I do throw that away so they don't risk choking on it. (I don't let them have the bones when I can't watch them). They have never had an upset tummy though from eating the bone chips. Not sure a puppy's digestive system can handle the bone though, so you may want to check with your vet to see if this type of chew treat is okay.

yes! as long as you give them other items to chew. I give my dog a rawhide or bone to chew to ease frustration. Use it as a fetch toy and they should respond. My dog loves it. Its a tough ball.

I have had digging dogs. The only things that keep them from digging is short nails and putting their feces in the area of the dig. Sunforce won't repell dogs digging and it doesn't prevent moles,gophers, and voles.

No, not at all. Could be your dog got into something? Might want to check his teeth, Make sure no plaque or tartar buildup, I recommend Plaq clnz gel.
