Mike like hooves. They stink though

My Ridgebacks love cow hooves, vets differ on their safety but my vet has always said they were fine and I have been giving them to my dogs for ~30 years with no problems. If a dog tends to bolt food when you move toward them they could be an issue when they grind them down to almost swallowing size. We usually toss them when they start getting small.

They are usually about $1.25 each which makes them one of the most economical hard chews. BTW Chewy has treats 40% off when you buy food right now. I have to admit we love Chewy the food is cheaper than in town plus a 5% discount with autoship and they have specials all the time. Last week they had 30 dollar online gift cards if you spent $100, you could do it up to three times. We did it twice and the first $30 was applied to the second purchase.
