When choosing a dog chew to help with dental health, Rowan Vets’ nurses advise owners to look for ingredients that actively support oral health. Key ingredients to look for include: Tartar Control: Some chews are designed with tartar-fighting ingredients, like enzymes, that help break down plaque and tartar as your dog chews. Baking Soda or Calcium: These ingredients can help maintain tooth enamel and prevent the build-up of plaque. Non-edible chews for dogs are a great way to help maintain oral health without adding extra calories. Made from durable materials like rubber or nylon, they help scrape away plaque and tartar as your dog chews. Chews with ridges or grooves can help clean your dog’s teeth more effectively by scraping away plaque as they are chewed. Size: Choose a chew that is appropriate for your dog’s size. A small dog will struggle with a large chew, while a larger dog (and dogs who are serious chewers) may need a more robust option. Ask our team for recommendations by calling 01772 639 800.

This rubber ball chew is made of nontoxic, durable rubber and is safe for your pet to grind on. Anco Roots are untreated wood chews harvested from tree roots, they’re eco-friendly, durable and won’t splinter, and I’ve found that dogs really love their flavour. Chewing and gnawing are natural behaviours for dogs, and provide stimulation and enrichment. An Anco Root will gently exercise your dog’s jaws, as well as his joints as he holds and manipulates the root. It’s also safe for your pet’s teeth, and acts as a natural toothbrush rich in vitamins and minerals. The colourful design of the Petbaby chew toy is perfect for playing fetch and recall games, and because your dog will need to puzzle out how to get at the treats, it’s a great toy for keeping his mind and body busy.

As veterinarians in Moline, IL, we often help pet owners choose durable, safe toys for power chewers. Ring-Shaped Chew Toys are pretty resilient and harder for your dog to chew pieces off. Bone and Stick-Style Chew Toys are the best for dogs who like gnawing on things for extended periods of time. Stuffable Chew Toys are great for dogs who seem easily bored, as it will likely work diligently to get their favorite snack out of the contraption. Tug Toys and Ropes are perfect for them if your dog has a great desire to engage in tug-of-war with you. Solid rubber balls are more recommended than others for dogs who show a desire to play fetch, run, and chase an object that bounces in unpredictable ways. Discs and Other Flying Toys are also great for dogs who like to run, and the flexible material they’re made from make them easier for a dog to scoop up from the ground.
