Anyone who knows us will know we have been cooking for our dogs for years, ever since the poisonous melamine in the dog food scandal that killed more than 5,000 pets worldwide, including a rescue dog we had just adopted from the shelter a few months before. It is easy to cook for a dog as long as you supplement the diet with a high-quality dog vitamin, but that means you have to be good about brushing the teeth regularly if you are not giving it any kibble. If you do give kibble, make sure it is high quality and made in the USA.

But what about treats? The same applies. The Nylabone range is a pet pleaser, with a range of items your dog will find of interest. From permanent bones with interesting flavors, to the healthy edible chews and the Nubz that help keep the teeth clean, your furry friend should find something to chew on to keep down plaque and tartar and keep themselves amused. We favor the edible ones because some owners have reported cracked teeth with the durable bones. Our boy was an aggressive chewer-he never cracked his teeth but he did manage to wear down the toy after a good deal of chewing. The dinosaurs are cute, but more solid than a rock, and agony if you ever step on one.

So go for the Nubz and edibles! And see how much your dog loves each of the different flavors available.
