Tips for getting the most out of a dog chew

Before we talk about Purina Busy Bone, it is important to know a bit about busy bones in general.

Busy bones are simply bones that are chewable and keep your dog busy and happy for a long time. They could come in various forms such as bulky sticks, beef kneecaps, lamb horns, elk antlers, raw bones, beef ribs, beef horns, rubber chews, nylon chews, yak cheese (also called Himalayan dog chews), rope chews, rawhide and so on.

Below are tips to follow to get the most out of busy bones and other dog chews:

• Duration: Do not allow your dog to chew on one type of busy bone for too long. This is because the chew tends to soften with time and won’t last long that way
• Purchase Quality Chews: Purchase dog chews with high quality. This cannot be determined by merely looking at the product but considering other factors such as ingredients, packaging, and the price too (the higher the price, the higher the quality)
• Change Your Dog’s Chew Occasionally: Do not make the chews easily available to your dog all the time, especially when you are unavailable to supervise. By changing the chews occasionally, you excite your dog and make him happier.
• Appropriate Timing: Chews can serve as a dog sitter when you need to get other things done, however, you mustn’t overdo it. When these chews are given occasionally rather than frequently, dogs tend to take it more seriously and be more focused, thereby giving you all the time you need to do other things.
• Incentive: If your dog isn’t warming up to the chew, you could entice him with incentives such as soaking a rawhide in meat broths.
• Select The Right Size Of Chew: Selecting the right size of chew to feed your dog is important for his safety and well-being. Most often, busy bones and other chews come with recommended sizes that should be adhered to.

Features of Purina Busy Bone

Purina Busy Bone enables you to provide chew-rific fun to your dog. It is made of long-lasting bones and chewable treats. Each of the pack features a simple way of delighting your dog.

You can select from the chews which are made from beef-hide with no rawhide. This beef-hide is gotten from farm-bred cattle or other easily digestible rawhide options. It is designed to last very long thereby ensuring there is a constant source of fun for your dog.

This product, which is a playful chew time challenge, gets your dog wagging his tail and keeps him blissfully busy all day long. There are various forms of Purina Busy Bone. There’s the long-lasting beef-hide chew bone, which is usually wrapped with chicken jerky for ease of digestion, and other options that will be outlined later.

So, whether your dog likes a classic chew bone with savory centers such as red meat, or perhaps durable Chewnolas that are coated with brown rice and oats, or beef-hide chews coated with real chicken jerky or just Twist’d with Beggin’, there is sure to be something he will like.

Purina Busy Bone is not made with rawhide rather with high-quality ingredients and has no FD&C colors thereby making it a very healthy treat for dogs.

For each product, you get the value of ten chew bones which can also be resealed (in case your dog doesn’t finish it all at once). It has a fun twisted shape with a meaty center. It’s not heavy as it only weighs 35 ounces.
