Rawhide and its safer alternatives
Every doggie loves to have something to chew on, and it’s important to satisfy this need, not to mention that it keeps your pup from gnawing on things around the house – or the house itself! Here you’ll find a wide variety of dog chew treats from some of the best pet supply shops around, but here are some things to consider before you buy.
Rawhide is a popular chewy treat, but more stores are filling their shelves with alternatives because there are certain dangers in giving it to your dog. The Humane Society states, “Rawhide doggie chews may be contaminated with salmonella, which can infect pets and humans who come in contact with the chews. These kinds of chews should only be offered to a pet with supervision, as they can pose a choking hazard as well.”
As you can see, your family could also be in danger with rawhide, that’s why you might want to consider many of the flavored cornstarch based treats on the market today, for the sake of you and your pup!
