If you've ever owned a puppy, you've definitely asked yourself this
question more than once! Puppies love to chew, and so do grown dogs. The
difference with a puppy is that they're experiencing everything for the
first time. They don't know what they should chew, and they don't know
what they don't want to chew.

Many of us have had this happen. You're sliding the pan of jalapeno poppers into the oven, and there's a knock at the door. Before you can stand up to shut the oven, "WOO WOO WOO WOO!"

are many people with large breed dogs that may not realize the
importance of caring for their hips and joints. The size of large
breed dogs means more weight and impact on their hips and joints
during everyday normal activity. This impact wears down the

such as Great Danes can grow to over 100 pounds so quickly that the
amount of puppy-like activity can prevent proper development of hips
and joints, also known as hip dysplasia. This is scary news for
families with large-breed dogs, but is there something you can do?
