Short answer: yes - absolutely! 🦴 And they can be incredibly beneficial for dental health, mental enrichment, and overall wellbeing when the right bone is chosen for the right dog.
Dental health is something we talk about often because tooth issues are more common than many people realize.
Recently, a sweet member of our store family, .adventures, underwent surgery to have one canine and one molar removed. Her canine had been chipped as a puppy and the root remained under the gum, later causing complications. Her molar had cracked, which can happen for a variety of reasons.
Stories like River’s are an important reminder that every dog is different - and so is the way they chew. Some dogs are gentle nibblers, some are enthusiastic crunchers, and some are power chewers! There truly isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to choosing the right chew or bone.
The good news? When matched properly to your dog’s chewing style, size, and preferences, raw meaty bones can be one of the BEST tools for supporting healthy teeth and gums naturally ✨
At ADR Newmarket, we carry a wide variety of options and we love helping you find the safest and most appropriate choices for your individual dog.
