Chewing Raw Hide Treats May Help Too

Hi,

I noticed that chewing on bones does not seem to be very effective for Ruby, my Corgi, as she does not chew as well as Jack, my Beagle.

Also, when I give treats like raw hide to Ruby, she used to chew for a short while and then swallowed the whole treat. I have to find softer treat for her to chew but she has no problem eating the dog biscuits.

Recently, I decided to hold the raw hide treat for her to chew and tried to teach her to chew it properly without swallowing it.

I have done it a few times and it is working as she has no choice but to chew it bit by bit to finish the whole treat instead.

Also, I believe the constant chewing has also helped to remove some of the tartar on her back teeth.

So you may also want to give your dogs some of these raw hide treats but make sure that they chew them properly with their back teeth.

Here is a short video clip of Ruby chewing on her raw hide treat with my help :
