he wont let me have it back and its falling apart. I dont want him to swallow a big chunk!!! Will that be bad for him?
Have never let Theo have one

Watch out for those greenies!!! Its like feenin' for
Crack for bulldogs...LOL
Lucy is a total B**ch when you give her one, LOL
She swares that I am going to give it to her and then take it away... if you go near her, she takes off!
Uh Kathy I though I was bad
Yea we dont have kids and lilAngus is our baby not our dog. Funny,,,, he thinks he is the baby too!!!!
I must admit he did get a christmas stocking. hee hee hee
First dog?
Stephanie-
Is Agnus your first dog? I have had german shephards before but Spencer is my first Bullie. I know what you mean about spoiling your pet. We all do it out of love. It is what makes us human. I dressed Spencer up for Easter as the Easter Bunny and did an egg hunt with him. I hid milk bones in plastic eggs around the house and watched him find them. It was fun but my mom thinks I am nuts too. He wears a Harley jeans jacket and hat when it is cold outside. We have some many toys for him it is unbelievable. Spencer has several different outfits and shoes I understand what it is like to spoil your dog. But he is more like your child than a dog with there loving personality and I think that it is great that you consider Agnus part of your family like I do. So I say, go ahead and spoil them! You are a great loving mom.
Kathy:)
we are so bad we spoil spoil spoil!!
I have always said "when I have kids" Ya know they will be perfect not spoild, well mannerd, blah;, balh, blah When My mom see us with Angus she just shakes her head!!! I know my whole family is talking about how freaky we are!! LOL LOL LOL
LOL
Ha I Used to be a paranoid mama like you, and still am but Milo knows his boundries, he is a little bugger, he would swallow a greenie whole if he could...
ya he ate half the thing at a time, never chewed it and swallowed it, he was fine, the only thing to watch out for his if he chews on it and it gets sticky and slimy it can get caught in his throat...
After I found that out, no more greenies for Milo, he can play with his fake nylabone with no taste that he hates lol!
Nilo swallowed 1/2 of it!!
And everything was ok?? Whew. Im throwing it away NOW NOW NOW!!!!!
Re: what are greenies?
Hey mike they sell them in god stores here in CA. They are a chew that is for bad breath and dogs go nutty for them. What the heck was I thinking!!! My lil one has great babies breath!!! Im not giving it back to him. I was scared out of my mind!!
Re: I don't think it is possible
I was just worried since I have read post about Bullies pooping out baby socks and such. So I thought it was possible for them to swallow things 1/2 whole. Just worried. I do know about row hides and such not being good for them. I only give him chew stuff (any chew toy) while I am home watching him. I got it away from him and I dont think I am giving it back. I really do think he would have swallowed the half. I know my lil guy he will eat anything. We give him carrots sometimes and I see in his poops large chunks that are kinda schoking to see. I would tink it would break down. He is not a big eater but will gobble fast. Thats what worries me. IM A FREAK!
Dont worry!
I heard the greenies aren't the best thing, but I just found that out a couple days ago, I've been giving greenies to Milo for the past two weeks and he horks them down and eats half at a time and he's been fine...
i hate greenies...
farcus loved them. he ate them in like five minutes. but they got so sticky he would start choking on them. we don't give them to him anymore. plus it gave him runny do do.
what are greenies?
nm
I don't think it is possible
Dogs like humans like to chew there food before they eat it. I have never seen a dog pick-up something and without trying to bite it first swallow it whole. They are dogs not ducks. They like to chew. They only swallow things whole after they realize that they can't break it by chewing and they enjoy the smell. Go ahead for yourself and taste the greenie. I know that you might think I'm a nut. But is green and minty like gum. It won't kill you. It is made of oils and fibers for easy digestion. The chamoise oils are what keeps there breath fresh and starts at the digestion of the stomach. When they chew on it, it breaks the plaque down on there teeth. You do know not to give them rawhide right? Nylabone only for chewing bones-tough chews.
kathy
LOL in chillin like bobby dylan
ok i was just feeling bad that i didnt look into them more befor I just gave it to him. I am super freak about things like that, and this time I took the store owners word for it. Since she is a great person, My fav doggie boutique. They come in diff sizes and I got him the correct one for his weight. I just didnt want him swallowing 1 whole half!! Whew. SO IF HE DID SWALLOW IT WOULD BE OK?? 1/2??
Chill, relax....
Stepahanie-
The greenie are an edible bone and they are meant to broken up and eaten. It they swallow a chunk like mine usually does it is ok. He probably demolished it in 5 minutes anyhow. They oils that are in greenies are what naturalizes there breath in there stomachs. They are suppose to be eaten and digested. You'll be alright.
Whew I just got him to drop it!!
He didnt swallow it and now he is pissed at me for tricking him with a treat!!! Whew I was freaked out!!!
I thought they were ok toeat but not a whole 1/2. Wonder what will happen. Has anyone had this problem??
You are not a bad mom,
I would take the rest a way from him untill you find out if it is ok for him to eat it.
I am such a bad mom!!!
They girl who sold it to me said they were the greatest thing!!! I hate them!!! help!! Anyone there??
OK WHAT HAPPENS IF HE SWALLOW 1/2!!! help asap
I am not sure looks like he just swalloed 1/2!!!
