You can get smaller ones for pups. We got mini cigars from a farm shop I think? The back of the pack says from 3 months up. Try avoid the bright colour ones. What breed is pup, sorry know you're on new puppy thread but can't remember. I just get raw meaty bones from the butcher for free! Ours is fed RAW though so used to chewing!!

i was going to get some discs from pets at home for her, and my older dog too, (older dog has never had them she only has proper bones) wasnt sure if proper bones were ok for puppys,

Are Jurassic bones the big roasted ones? If so they are extremely dangerous, I would not feed them at all and certainly never unsupervised. Cooked or smoked bones are brittle and splinter easily. Raw bones (including raw poultry bones) are fine, even for puppies.

i got my older dog a pigs ear and got pup some more puppy tubes, she had that on her bed and older dog went outside for some puppy free time,

Raw chicken wings are a big favourite in this house! They don't last long though! It's only cooked bones that are a no no. Jurassic bones I really wouldn't bother with tbh, heard stories of the splinter risk and surely there's nothing nutritional in there? Had pup microchipped today and vet mentioned how lovely his teeth were, and his breath doesn't smell either. I'd maybe try holding one end of the chicken wing to get pup interested/teach how to really crunch and chew.
