Are Rawhide Bones Bad For Puppies Or Dogs?

I was told that by giving my dog a rawhide bone it will mess up his digestive tract. He is a couple months away from being a year old. Does it only affect certain dogs and their ages? And if it does hurt him then what would be a good thing to get him while he is in his chewing stage?

    Well some will say rawhide is a choking hazard....yes it has happened and maybe I'm wrong but I still give my dogs rawhide....and the vet I work for gives her dogs rawhide also, but only when we are there to watch them. It's hard not to give it to them when they love it so much and it is very good for their teeth. So as long as you monitor him with it then I would say a rawhide bone every once in awhile will not hurt.

        My dogs have loved a Kong and fill the middle with peanut butter, they will spend hours chewing and licking at it, they are strong rubber that they can't chew up, and my vet actually recommended it to me. Best wishes
