Supervision is essential when giving your dog a chew. Even the safest chews can pose risks if left unattended. By keeping an eye on your dog , you can intervene quickly ‎if‎ something goes wrong and ensure ‎that chewing remains a safe, positive, and ‎enriching activity.

At ChewMenu, we offer a variety of safer chewing options for your dog. We recommend avoiding cooked bones, overly hard chews, and‎ ‎products that are very high in fat to support healthy digestion. While we carefully select highly digestible chews for our boxes, every dog is unique, so be sure to monitor your pup for any signs of digestive upset, intolerance or allergy.

Chewing is essential for your dog’s dental health, and our chew variety is designed with that in mind. However, every dog has a different chewing style, which can affect safety. All of our chews will naturally soften with saliva, but it’s important to monitor your dog to ensure their chewing habits aren’t putting their teeth at risk.

Puppies have developing teeth and jaws, so choosing the right chews is especially important for their safety. Hard or large chews can cause discomfort or damage growing teeth. That’s why at ChewMenu, we offer a Puppy Box filled with soft, size-appropriate, and safer chew options designed specifically for young dogs helping them satisfy their natural chewing instincts while supporting healthy growth and teething.

Regularly inspect your dog’s chews for wear and tear. Once a chew becomes small enough to swallow, develops sharp edges, or starts breaking apart, it’s time to replace it. Keeping chews in good condition helps prevent choking risks and keeps every chew session safe.

Proper handling of dog chews helps keep both you and your pet safe. Always wash your hands before and after giving your dog a chew, and avoid leaving chews on dirty surfaces where bacteria can grow. Store chews in a cool, dry place and discard any that appear spoiled, sticky, or have an unusual smell. Practicing good hygiene and safe handling ensures your dog’s chews stay fresh and healthy.
