Which Nylabone Is Right For Your Dog?


Nylabone products have been a well known recognized brand in the pet industry since 1955.  They produce premium dog products that focus on healthy chewing.  The big question is, with all the different products to pick from, which one is best for your pet?

Nylabone is a great alternative to real bones and rawhide. The chews come in different hardness. If you have a puppy that is just teething and developing their adult teeth, it is suggested that you chose a Gumabone chew.  They are softer and will give when chewed so your pet can massage their teeth and gums with no fear of creating any kind of fractures to their baby teeth, and growing adult teeth.

When your dogs’ teeth develop into strong adult teeth, the common chew is the Durachew.  These are a harder consistency that gives your pet more chewing time.  As they chew, little pieces shave off. They may swallow some of the pieces.  That is okay as long as they do not swallow too much, if they do, some dogs may throw-up or have diarrhea.

If your pet is a very aggressive chewer you may want to get the Galileo chews that are harder and made for more aggressive chewers.

All the dental chews are great for helping wear down tartar on your dogs’ teeth which helps reduce plaque build up.

As with all pet products, please supervise your dog while they are chewing on Nylabones.  Some dogs may try to chew off bigger pieces, or they chew it down quickly beyond the safe point of the bone. You need to be sure you are there to take the bone away if you need to. Nylabone Puppy Chew Toy Starter Kit Nylabone Dura Chew Value Pack, Regular Nylabone Galileo Bone Dog Chew Toy, Souper
