The dog owners are increasingly concerned about the oral problems of dogs. After all, they have a good teeth, which can immediately improve the quality of life of the elderly and increase their service life. Many cleaning supplies prepared for dogs in advance have also been born, from tartar cleaning services to small ones, ranging from whitening toothpaste, soft bristle toothbrush, mouthwash and other various oral cleaning supplies.
Recently, there is a name called Feiyingyingtian, which says that dogs can clean the front teeth based on pure natural chews such as raw bones, cowhide, pig ears, etc., and even replace the effect of brushing.
People often have an innate favorable attitude towards purely natural items, but does this purely natural chew really have the effect of brushing teeth? Not to mention the actual cleaning effect of pure natural chews such as raw bones and cowhide. It is pure nonsense to just replace brushing teeth, and this kind of pure natural item will also pose certain risks to the dog.
Why is it better not to use this bone to clean the dog's front teeth? Why can't they replace brushing? I will also conduct a detailed discussion below, their pros and cons. Analysis of the pros and cons of using
as a pure natural chew.
Before discussing the pros and cons of this type of bone used to cleanse, people first discuss what bones usually use to grind dogs' teeth. The high probability is nothing more than some bones such as cowhide, cow hoofs, deer antlers, and commercial service bones. What are their pros and cons?
1. The advantages of relativeness over brushing.
First of all, I have to admit that they still have certain advantages over brushing their teeth. For dogs, brushing their teeth is really a matter of life, and they don’t want to be removed and polished every day.
For poop shovelers, brushing dogs’ teeth is a thankless thing, and there is no time to brush their teeth every day.
The advantages of letting dogs clean teeth based on chewing bones are reflected. Dogs have an innate favorable attitude towards bones, so they are much gentler according to this method. Dogs themselves prefer it. For the shoveling owner, they release their hands and give shoveling owner a comfort: I have grind the dog's teeth, so there is no need to brush my teeth.
2. Disadvantages of feeding bones.
Many shovelers will say that feeding bones is so good, so why don’t everyone learn and train them? This makes me forced to mention the harm that feeding bones will cause to the dog.
1. Pure natural chews can easily lead to dog room breathing.
Although some blocks are beneficial to the dog's front teeth and they can also consider the necessity of chewing, they are widely risky to generate ventilatory intake for the dog.
For example, the most easy-to-use cowhide, when a dog gets a piece of cowhide, the first thing is to bite it, but the cowhide will become loose as it chews. Dogs usually swallow it, but this cowhide is not easy to absorb, and will cause the risk of blockage in the esophagus and digestive system, and even damage to the ventricular air.
In addition to cowhide, some easily broken bones can also be risky for dogs.
2. There is a risk of breaking the dog's stomach and intestines.
Like cow hoofs, deer antlers, bones, etc., it can also threaten the dog's digestive system. Guanin, a pet doctor in California, USA, of the animal welfare agency Jason Heiger Charity Foundation, said that when a dog chews its small hoof, they will bite it off and swallow it. This broken bone will cause irritation to the dog's stomach and colon.
Moreover, most pet doctors in New York hate cow's hooves and easily broken bones, and many dogs will cause serious trauma in the stomatology due to chewing bones.
3. Dogs cannot absorb this chewy.
In fact, this pure natural chew is generally not easy to be a food source for dogs. Few wolves surviving in the wild swallow their bones, but when dogs chew, they will inevitably swallow this item into their abdomen.
Many puppies cannot absorb this chewy, which will cause huge burden on their gastrointestinal tract. Perhaps some adult dogs cannot absorb too much bones, and long-term feeding will have the risk of severe constipation.
In addition, the shit owner will prepare pig ears for the dog in advance, but the pig ears are very greasy, which will cause discomfort in the dog's gastrointestinal tract. In addition, some pet doctors in the UK are worried that pig ears are generally in areas where the pigs are given injections and can also cause the deposition of the pigs, which is also a great harm to the physical and mental health of dogs.
4. If the food is solid, it will hurt the dog's front teeth.
Some shovelers will feel that if they are worried that some rib cartilage will swallow them during the whole process of chewing, then just choose some hard chews.
However, such as some solid chews, such as the skulls and antlers of small animals, are not suitable for dogs to chew. The dog's front teeth and muscles are not good at solving this part. This is not grinding teeth, and it looks better like chewing big stones. If this small toy is too hard, the dog's front teeth may even break.
The original intention of the shoveler will be to clean the front teeth, but in the end it will be more than worth the loss, which will cause irreversible damage to the dog's front teeth.
5. It is very easy to infect cystacers.
Many shovelers will chew some commercial service bones or raw bones for their dogs, but this bone will carry some bacteria and schizoli. Scientific researchers at Tufts University found that this chewable commercial service actually contains a lot of microbial bacteria and bacteria, which can seriously threaten the physical and mental health of dogs.
Therefore, people can see that chewing this purely natural chewy will have some benefits for the front teeth, but in general, it is still more beneficial than the benefits.. In the end, people will still break through the Chongxiao Tower. Is this pure natural chewy really that good for dogs' front teeth?
