yes i used to give sarah rawhides and she would choke and then i found some expensive ones that she didnt choke as much on but still did. then i came here and was like omg im killing my dog so now its nylabones and deer antlers. i would switch now because they dont want to chew the nylabonz after the rawhides. i think if i would have started them on them in the first place i would have had less trouble. but they love the deer antlers.
