Bully Sticks
Bully Sticks are natural chews with many teeth-health benefits. Made of low-fat and high-protein treats that promote dental hygiene through encouraging gnawing action, bully sticks also contain numerous vitamins and minerals for overall wellness, such as omega 3 fatty acids for healthy skin and coats, B12 to aid cell function, and amino acids to promote overall wellbeing.
Bullies are long-lasting chew toys created from beef pizzle or dried steer. Easy for pets to digest, these one-ingredient treats offer long-term play value while helping prevent plaque and tartar buildup when used instead of traditional tooth brushing methods.
Bully sticks produced from grass-fed, free-range cattle without artificial additives are ideal, with no scent or strong odor lingering after your pup chews. Available as traditional sticks as well as thick, jumbo and braided options of various lengths; you may even find bites and rings suitable for aggressive chewers that could become lodged in their throat if used too aggressively; these products also produce moderate to strong odor so be sure to monitor when chewing occurs!
Nylon Bones
Nylon bones provide long-lasting chew toys for dogs that promote dental health. Their raised ridges massage gums and clean teeth, helping reduce plaque and tartar build-up for improved oral hygiene.
Teething pads can help soothe distressed puppies. In addition, they may redirect problem chewing behavior away from furniture and belongings.
Nylon bones are typically flavored to attract dogs’ taste buds. Some flavors can be sweet while others savory. Furthermore, some chews even incorporate animal parts such as beef trachea, pig ears or fish skin into their composition.
While these toys should generally be safe for most dogs, it’s still wise to monitor them closely. Choking hazards exist if these toys break or crumble apart; and certain ingredients could even trigger allergic reactions in both pets and humans. Be sure to inspect any dog bones regularly for signs of cracking, wear or excessive wear; any toys small enough to cause choking should also be discarded immediately when small enough for that risk.

Dental Treats
Though brushing remains the gold standard in oral care for dogs, some canines may find it challenging to adhere to an everyday oral care routine. Dental chews and treats may help remove plaque, reduce tartar build-up and freshen breath more effectively than simply using toothbrushing alone.
Different from regular chews, dental chews are specifically crafted to remove plaque and tartar buildup on dogs’ teeth and improve fresh breath. When choosing dental chews for your pup, look out for ones bearing the VOHC seal of approval (the Veterinary Oral Health Council evaluates pet products before giving their seal if they meet certain standards) to make sure your dog receives something effective.
Dental chews can be an invaluable complement to regular tooth brushing for dogs. Not only can they help to prevent gum disease and tooth loss, they may also improve breath and joint stiffness as well as joint stiffness in general. However, they should only be given to dogs that can safely tolerate them.
