Been feeding RAW knuckle & shank bones for the 32 years I have had GSD's.....Never had a problem with teeth....and NEVER had to put one under to have their teeth cleaned...oh yeah after a good chew on the bones they do get white poop from all the bone meal they have pulverised into their sytems.... Shirley we ALL do things differently....doesn't makes us WRONG...I don't give the edible nylabones because as Kathy stated.."they are a bit pricey" and they disappear too quickly.
