I have a question for those who feed bones to chew on.... how long to you leave a raw bone lying around? My girls love to chew on raw knuckle and shank bones. I'm always wondering how long to leave a bone for them to chew on. Lucy likes to take them into the back yard and bury them, and of course Jessie likes to dig them up and bring the dirty thing into the house! Has anyone ever read how long a raw bone should be left before throwing it away? I sometimes find them in the back of the closet and wonder how long they have been there!!!
