Does Your Dog Get Rawhide Chew Toys?

If your dog has any kind of dietary issues, allergies, or diarrhea issues, then he really shouldn't be given rawhide chews. Most dogs can digest them, but if your dog has any issues, he'll be better off without them. These rawhide chew toys can also have bacteria that can make your dog sick.

The biggest problem with rawhides is that they are a choking hazard. If your dog bites off a large piece and it gets stuck, he could choke.  Even if he doesn't choke on it, the rawhide could get stuck in his intestines and then he needs surgery.

Rawhides are not a dog safe toy - pitch 'em. It's not worth the risk to your beloved dog. Give him a nice nylabone. You can scuff it up and smear a little peanut butter or some other yummy stuff on it to help get him started.  If he seems bored, or really wants to chew, you can make him work for his food with a kong or some other feeding toy.

Happy Caturday!

Every Saturday the internet gets taken over by cats.  Saturday is the most popular day for people to post pictures of their cats to the internet. So why not us?  Bewaggle celebrates Caturday!
Abyssinian Cat By John Morton

Today we are going to start with the Abyssinian. There is a lot of controversy concerning the origin of the Abyssinian. The breed was developed in England. The first Abyssinian to come to England was from Ethiopia formerly known as Abyssinia. However, this breed most likely originated in Egypt.

These cats are energetic, playful, and love to be around people, however, they are not lap cats. They love to know what you are up to. They like to be helpers and are said to be very loyal and very intelligent.

Energetic cats need to get plenty of exercise or they can develop behavioral problems. You can use feather toys, balls, lazer pointers (avoid shining the light in their eyes), or even take your cat for a walk.

I would now like to direct you to catsinsinks.com  - my fellow cat lovers - enjoy :)
