Bones

[MyGuideJools]

Dogs love bones right? I'd like to get a nice bone for our pup (5 month Lab) to keep him busy when I'm trying to sit and have a cuppa
Am I right to believe I should get a raw bone? all the bones I've seen in pet shops etc are 'roasted' but I thought cooked bones were a no no due to splintering?
TIA

we've tried the Yak Cheese chews and he's not interested, he nibbles at it for a minute then walks away. Think I might invest in an antler.

He's currently tucking into a 'natural pork roll' that DH bought last week. It stinks but he's loving it

Some mistake, surely? Are you 100% positive he’s a Labrador?

I know! it's the only thing he's ever rejected!! It's in his toy box and he will occasionally have a chew for a minute but thats it.....very strange!

I have 2 dogs (Doberman and a rescue), every Saturday they get a marrow bone from Waitrose. Only £1 and they love to get the Marrow and then the rescue spends the next week with his bone!

Haven't found any other supermarkets that do them!

kayjay thanks for that! there is a Waitrose not too far away so will treat him next time I pass.
I did buy him a bone from Morrison's (£3 for a large roast bone) and I let him have it for an hour a few days week, he loves it!
I also invested in an Antler for him, £16!! He has no interest in it whatsoever. He chewed it for 2 mins and now it's in the bottom of the toy box!
I think it's too hard for him and I think he prefers smelly things to chew

@MyGuideJools hector occasionally chews on Lexie's old antler toy, he prefers these bones over it. Sadly when we replaced the sofa a few weeks back I found loads he has been kicking under there. Very embarrassing 😝
