Description

An important warning about choosing the correct size toys for your dogs, including when you have multiple dogs of different sizes. This photo is an X-ray of a dog’s abdomen. It’s a good idea to avoid giving your puppy buffalo horns while they still have their deciduous teeth. Puppy teeth are more fragile than adult teeth, and therefore at a higher risk of breaking when chewing on hard things. Your puppy is certainly going to want to chew on objects when he is teething, but alternatives to buffalo horns should be considered, which are listed further down. Alternatives to Buffalo Horn Suitable for Puppies: Buffalo Skin is suitable for puppies from 12 weeks and suitable for dogs of all sizes. Composition and Analysis:

You may not need to dive onto a fallen ice cube before your dog gets to it, but it’s not the best idea to intentionally give ice cubes to your dog to chew. Pig’s ears are another favorite treat among dog owners. While pig ears can provide some solid chew time, they are high in fat.

Very Low Fat: Unlike Beef and Pork, Buffalo Skin is leaner and lower in saturated fat, making them suitable for those on low fat diets or with pancreatitis. Healthy: Because they are made up of keratin, horns are very high in protein but at the same time extremely low in fat which allows pets to enjoy chewing and consuming the horn while staying lean and healthy. The WhiteTail Naturals Water Buffalo Horn for Dogs is an all-natural and organic chew toy, made from 100% free-ranging water buffalo. This extra-large chew bone is designed for aggressive chewers and can help with behaviors like boredom and anxiety. It also provides oral and dental health benefits, helping to keep teeth, gums, and jaw muscles strong and healthy while reducing tartar, plaque, and bad breath. Additionally, it is a high-protein and mineral-rich chew that is grain-free and free of additives and preservatives, making it a healthy choice for large breed dogs of all life stages. While they are a safer option, Kongs can still be destroyed and your dog can break off pieces. These large pieces can cause potential choking hazards and intestinal obstructions. Always inspect these toys prior to use and monitor your dog while they are playing with them. How do water buffalo chews compare to rawhide in terms of safety? Water buffalo chews tend to be more digestible than traditional rawhides and often come with fewer additives. However, like all chews, they should be given under supervision to prevent potential choking hazards.

Dental care is extremely important in dogs," veterinarian Dr. Stephanie Goldschmidt, BVM&S, DAVDC, an assistant professor of dentistry and oral surgery at the University of California-Davis shared with The Spruce Pets. That’s not to say that every dog will have a problem with these chews, but many dogs can have a problem. Chews and Chew Toys You Should Not Give Your Dog If you still want to give your dog these hard cheese chews, you can attempt to warm them in the microwave to soften them. However, the brands I tried during my testing didn't become any softer. Cow Hooves With anything in our dog’s world — and ours, for that matter — there is always something potentially dangerous about everything. Do these chews have an odor? Quality water buffalo chews are usually low-odor. However, some natural scent can be expected, especially when they become wet from a dog’s saliva.WhiteTail Naturals- Water Buffalo Horn for Dogs (Extra Large XL) – All-Natural Buffalo Horn Dog Chew – Long Lasting Chew Toy for Aggressive Chewers These Buffalo Skin chews will provide your dog with extended chewing pleasure, keeping them occupied for longer. It is this curved outer sheath that buffalo horn chews are made from. They do not include the core which is why they are partially or totally hollow. Interestingly cores are also sometimes made into chews as well. However, buffalo horn cores for dogs are smaller, don’t last nearly as long, and have a much softer honeycomb-like consistency.

Buffalo horns are nutritious treats which are high in protein and low in fat. This makes them absolutely ideal for dogs who are struggling with their waistline, which is a surprising percentage of the dog population. They are also high in calcium and phosphorus, which are vital for healthy, strong bones and muscles. As a result, buffalo horns can be an excellent addition to your dog’s diet. Long Lasting Foods high in fat can eventually lead to obesity – which creates its own problems for your dog. Additionally, high-fat foods can cause gastrointestinal upset, as well as pancreatitis (which can be fatal for some dogs). This typically results in vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, lethargy, and possibly hospitalization. Natural Dental Care: Chewing on water buffalo horns can help reduce plaque and tartar buildup on a dog’s teeth. The mechanical action of chewing scrapes away at the dental debris, promoting better oral health.Unlike the antlers of a deer that are shed seasonally, water buffalos (similar to cows and bison) have horns that stay on the animal for its entire life. However, they are not slaughtered to make water buffalo horn dog chews. The horns used for chews are instead a by-product of the water buffalo meat and leather industry. You can learn more about choosing rawhides for your dog and what to avoid in our article Safer Rawhide Chews for Dogs. My entire life and throughout my career as a veterinarian, I was always taught to share both my good and bad experiences as well as my knowledge. Being aware of these potential dangers and risks can empower others to make choices that best suit their dog and their lifestyle. Making matters worse, a reasonably good chewer can rip off pieces of plastic from a Nylabone and swallow them, leading to a likely digestive obstruction or, at the very least, diarrhea (I learned this before I was a vet!). When pieces of these break off and sit in the stomach, the body keeps trying to break them down. This alone can lead to pancreatitis. Can water buffalo chews help with bad breath in dogs? By aiding in the removal of tartar and plaque, these chews can help to improve oral health, which may indirectly help with bad breath. However, persistent bad breath might be a sign of underlying dental issues or other health concerns.

Like bones and other hard chew toys, cow hooves pose the dual danger of breaking your dog’s teeth or splintering, which could lead to puncture injuries of your dog’s mouth or digestive tract. Water buffalo horns are durable and can last much longer than many other natural chews, sometimes several weeks or even months, depending on the dog’s chewing habits and the horn’s size. Give your dog a taste of something truly special with our Buffalo Skin chews - a healthier, low-fat, longer-lasting, and delicious treat that your dog will adore.Not all types of chews are suitable for every dog. However, because horns are hard but not too hard, they are ideal for a wide range of chewers from teething puppies to senior pets. Horns are especially well-suited for power chewers. It’s confession time: Much of the Preventive Vet team is guilty of spoiling our dogs. We’re slightly ashamed to admit how much of our usable space is devoted to storing our dogs’ favorite toys, nummies, and other embarrassing euphemisms.
