Question about Nylabones and “Puppy Prints”?
My puppy is almost 4 months old. So far hasn’t chewed any furniture, mostly just me. So to help with his teething, I bought him some Nylabone. It was a variety pack. One durable, one flexible and one edible. He likes them all, but I just wanted to make sure that the edible bones are ok. I know my vet said some bones aren’t good for dogs of any age and I was especially concerned because of the age.
Second, I bought a scrapbook at Petsmart for the first year. It has one area where you are supposed to stamp each paw. What would be the best way to do this? I think it would be cute, but I am a little concerned with him licking the ink off of his feet.
Finally, when we go outside, he tries to eat everything. Leaves, hair, grass, dandilions, etc. He even tries eating mulch and rocks. I am pretty concerned with the rocks. What can I do to stop him, nothing seems to help.
I really appreciate all your answers!
Awwww…your puppy sounds cute!
The edible Nylabones are fully digestible, so they are fine for dogs. They are considered a great alternative to rawhide or sterilized bones.
As far as the scrapbook goes, I would use non toxic ink and do it outside, so he doesn’t track little pawprints into your house.
My dog used to eat rocks and other assorted stuff, too (until she had to have surgery to remove an undigested nutshell from her intestines!) She did grow out of this phase, though. If it really concerns you, you could always muzzle him with one of those soft velcro muzzles when you walk, so you don’t have to constantly pick things out of his mouth. I’ve also heard that eating inedible stuff can be a sign of a vitamin or mineral deficiency, so you might try switching his brand of food to a higher quality. Personally, I love Nutro Natural Choice. My dogs have never looked better!
Hope this helps!
