Can Dental Sticks Upset Dogs' Stomachs?

While Natural Farm's dental sticks are formulated to be highly digestible, it is possible that some dogs may experience stomach discomfort, especially if consumed in excess or if the dog has a sensitive stomach. To minimize any risk, it is important to introduce new treats gradually and monitor your dog's response.

Tips to Avoid Digestive Issues

  1. Gradual Introduction: Start by offering dental sticks in small quantities and gradually increase. This allows the dog's digestive system to adapt to the new treat and reduces the risk of stomach discomfort.
  2. Supervision: Observe your dog while they chew the sticks to ensure they do not swallow large pieces, which could cause blockages. Supervision during chewing helps prevent gastrointestinal problems and ensures a safe and enjoyable experience for your pet.
  3. Fresh Water: Always provide fresh water for your dog to help with digestion. Adequate water intake is essential to keep the digestive system functioning properly and to prevent dehydration.

Consulting a veterinarian before introducing any new treat into your dog's diet is also a good practice to ensure they do not have adverse reactions. Natural Farm's dental sticks are developed with natural and safe ingredients, minimizing the risks of stomach discomfort and providing a healthy and tasty option for daily chewing.
