Your dog can’t help it. He’s genetically programmed to chew stuff. So to spare your shoes the slobber, you do what any self-respecting pet parent can – you serve up the rawhide bones and chews. And just like that, hours pass and your dog happily munches away, cleaning his teeth while he’s at it. So there you have it, rawhide rules. It would be criminal to take it away. Or would it?

Read on for details to share with yours, and ideas to help minimize the risks if you choose to give your dog rawhide chews and bones.
