Greenie Warning

Heffanator · Post-a-Holic - Give this person a rabies shot!

omg, that's scary! What crap!

I have never used them and I definitely won't now. They're too expensive, too.

I just give my dogs rawhides and beef bones that are packaged in the pet sections.

I still give trinity grenies every time I go and buy some they always warn the people buying them to watch the dog while they are eating them and make sure they chew it good.

on the frenchie forum that i am on, there are similar experiences with the greenies. i have never given them to my dogs and never will. not worth the risk to my dogs.

Greenies are better then the liquad breathe and teeth cleaner that use to be out. I don't remember the name of it but you would put it in your dogs water. I quickly stopped using that. It made any dog that draink it got sick to there stomach.

I've heard this same thing said about regular rawhides so my dogs chew pig rawhides because they are supposed to digest better, but i still watch them closely.

i also heard some of the nylabones can be dangerous. one of the girls on my frenchie forum lost her dog when he choked to death on one. i think with anything, they should be watched closely. rocky gulps his treats down so i definately would not chance him with a greenie .

I have heard the samething dusty but i rareky give the nylon bones to trinity. They don't make them big enough for her. LOL

Oscar has never had a greenie because for one I think they are too expensive. But usually I will give Oscar a big meaty raw bone in the backyard....never do that in the house. LOL!!

i think the best kind of treats out there for dogs are bullysticks. my dogs go nuts over them. they have big mouths and love to chew. they are so funny though. i buy them each their own, but rocky and annie will always want the same one. they will sit for hours and chew, one on each end.i have to watch them even closer when they get to the middle though or a fight will break out.when it gets down that small i have to throw the rest away.
