Sticks and Wood

Wood splinters easily when chewed on and shards can jam into the dog's mouth causing an infection. Also if pieces of wood are swallowed, it can cause intestinal blockage.

  • If your dog is mostly chewing and isn't eating the stick, that can be okay, but it also depends on what kind of wood that your dog is chowing down on. It's true that chewing on a stick can be a good thing - it can alleviate your dog's tooth pain (if they have any), keep them from chewing on other things (furniture, for example), and can be a great toy.
