My Shepherd 3 yr old Shepherd tends to get a little anxious. When we used a professional trainer, he explained we should keep a bone or something for her to latch onto. She has latched onto a couple of the plastic Nylabones and chomps down pretty hard. I have noticed the plastic now has some sharp pieces and is cutting the side of her mouth. I am looking for a bone that she can use as her “go to” when she feels she needs to. We also have a 12 wk old Husky, who I would like for her to have one to chew also but want something that won’t hurt them. Any suggestions???
