However, bones must be fed raw, or at least dehydrated (air-dried), never should the bones be cooked or baked. These processes would cause the bones to splinter into sharp pieces, and hence cause cuts or abrasions in their stomachs, or worse it could even block the gestation pathways and this might even warrant an emergency case. Bones and chews that are air-dried go through a slow drying process at temperatures that range between 50-80 degrees Celcius, preserving the nutrients. The air-drying process reduces the chance of the bone splintering when being eaten because the bone hasn't been subjected to high heat and the composition of the material is more elastic (rubber-like) rather than brittle (glass-like).
We are aware of the difference in opinion between the advocates of raw feeders and those who prefer cooked food. Air-dried bones are never subjected to high heat and therefore are considered raw food more than cooked food. However, we do make sure that the dehydration process lasts more than 24 hours, killing any bacteria that can possibly remain in the bones.
Chewing on bones can provide great enjoyment to our pooches, and has its health benefits. However, there are risks that come with it, we make sure that the risks are minimized so that your pooch can enjoy the best chewing experience while maintaining the right nutritional intake.
