A guide to safe and not-so-safe dog bones

What is the safest bone to give a dog?

Each dog is unique and has their individual needs. However, many agree that the safest bones are synthetic bones and certain types of natural bones. Be sure to steer clear of smaller, brittle bones like those from chicken, turkey, pork, or rib bones; as these can splinter and pose a choking hazard.

Do vets recommend bones for dogs?

Your dog might love gnawing on bones, but many vets say you need to choose chews carefully. There are potential risks, including choking, intestinal blockage, and even fractured teeth. Instead of raw bones, opt for edible synthetic bones or hard chews designed specifically for dogs.

What is the safest thing for a dog to chew on?

Edible synthetic bones and hard chew treats are some of the safest options for your dog to chew on. Some dogs also enjoy rawhide chews, made from the inner layer of cow or horse hides.

What do vets recommend dogs chew on?

Veterinarians typically lean towards recommending synthetic bones, hard chew dog treats, or bully sticks for your dogs chewing needs. These options dont just keep them occupied they can also support your dogs dental health. As always, keep a watchful eye on your dog while theyre enjoying their chew.

What are the best natural bones for dogs?

Options for natural dog bones can vary, but beef and ham bones are popular choices. Some pet parents also opt for edible raw bones like chicken wings and necks, or turkey necks. But vets say you should be cautious with these natural options, even if theyve been processed in a pet-safe way. Raw bones carry a risk for illness and small, cooked bones can splinter.

Are Benebones safe for dogs?

Benebones, a synthetic chew option, can indeed be a safe choice for many dogs. However, factors such as the dogs size, chewing habits, and the specific Benebone product can affect the safety of the chew for your dog. Its always a smart move to chat with your vet before introducing new foods and chewing items into your dogs routine.

The 10 best dog bones in 2024

Avoid anything listed in the unsafe section above. In general, stay away from anything that splinters, like natural bones or sticks. That includes traditional bones, like beef bones, but also other products like elk or deer antlers. Harder synthetic bones, like Nylon or plastic bones, can be okay for some dogs but may lead to tooth fractures or intestinal blockages in others.

In general, the safest bones have some pliability and will break into chewy little pieces as your dog gnaws. There is a simple test to determine if a bone is safe for a pup to chew. If a bone doesnt give a little when you press it with your thumbnail, it may be too hard.

As far as ingredients go, it isnt necessary to be too concerned about only feeding your pup organic, all-natural, grass-fed, preservative-free, additive-free treats. Animal by-products also actually have some benefits, mostly to help preserve the bones. Bones need some level of processing and preservation to keep them shelf-stable.
