    Guidelines for Giving Your Poodle a Bone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    To keep your poodle safe while chewing on bones, follow these guidelines:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Give them the proper bones<\/strong><\/li>
    2. Don\u2019t leave them unsupervised <\/strong>– You want to make sure your poodle isn\u2019t breaking through the bone – which can cause damage. <\/li>
    3. Don\u2019t let them chew it into small pieces <\/strong>– Small pieces can be easily swallowed and can choke them. <\/li>
    4. Don\u2019t give them cooked bones <\/strong>– Cooked bones are soft and splinter easily<\/li>
    5. Take the bone away after 15-20 minutes<\/strong><\/li>
    6. Throw it away after 3-4 days <\/strong>– Or once it is worn down. A chewed on and worn down bone is more likely to begin to splinter<\/li>
    7. Refrigerate the bones <\/strong>– Cold bones are less apt to splinter <\/li>
    8. Give the bone when they are full <\/strong>– If they have a bone while they are hungry, they are more apt to go crazy and try to bite right through it. It should be used as a nibble after a meal. <\/li>
    9. Give them a bone larger than their muzzle <\/strong>– A bone that is too small will make them think that they can swallow it, and you don\u2019t want them swallowing their bones. <\/li>
    10. Don\u2019t give them a bone if they have dental problems <\/strong>– Although bones can help a poodle\u2019s teeth, if they are already experiencing dental problems, a bone can cause more harm. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
