Healthy Chewing — Naturally
There are many reasons why we give our furry family members chews and treats. Of course, the foremost reason is to show them how much we love them. Whose heart doesn't leap when their dog's tail wags with joy? But there are also some very practical reasons for giving our dog chews and treats on a regular basis.
- Chewing Satisfaction — Sometimes your pooch gets bored and chews on things she shouldn't or maybe she barks and annoys the neighbors. Chews are a good way to help make sure that your dog is occupied and happy. If she's chewing on long lasting chews and treats, she's guaranteed to be entertained.
- Dental Care — Chews and treats can be used to toughen your dog's gums. Also, chewing helps scrape plaque and tartar deposits from his teeth. And, of course, the more he chews the white and brighter his smile will be.
When giving chews and treats, you should always supervise your dog, especially when giving them for the first time. We recommend that you take away small pieces as he chews to minimize the rare risk of choking or other potential issues. Always read labels carefully and follow feeding guidelines. How often you serve your dog chews and treats is up to you. It's a good idea to base your decision on factors like chewing habits, weight, and health history. It's best to consult your vet if you're unsure. Remember, switching between True Chews® product varieties and flavors is encouraged. In fact, we recommend it. Dogs love variety just like we do.
Lastly, daily chewing can be effective in maintaining a healthy mouth, but don't forget that for complete health, your dog needs a balanced diet, daily exercise and regular visits to your veterinarian.
