I wouldn't let Steel chew on the Nylabone or the chews unsupervised, but if you watch him use them to keep him from eating huge chunks of the chews or parts of the Nylabone, it's fine for him to have them :-)

Thanks for reaching out about Peach. Rawhide bones should be safe for rats, as they are omnivores similar to dogs. You should provide small pieces to chew on as not not upset their gastrointestinal tract. Be careful as rat teeth are smaller and thin, and might fracture easier. Good luck.

Hi Diana, I have not yet tried the Nylabone Healthy Edibles with my dogs, but I just looked at the ingredients and think they might be a nice treat for Joey. Certainly, I always recommend monitoring a dog with any edible chew because they will sometimes bite off too large of a chunk, but I suspect that will be less of a problem with the Healthy Edibles than some of the other chew options on the market. If Joey has a problem with allergies, my favorite chews are Honest Kitchen Beams (https://www.thehonestkitchen.com/beams?gclid=Cj0KEQjwmK3OBRDKjN-L55---_UBEiQAOL6t1ONBCfGAKhdZ3BxXNOpy4Q4FLZFPR0lX79hOaIj9CO0aApIM8P8HAQ) and Sam's Yams (sweet potato treats). I hope that was helpful! Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

It is very difficult for us to recommend products when we don't know what is available to you in your country. Here in the US we would recommend products like these: ( https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/kaytee-timothy-hay-baked-apple-small-animal-treats ) ( https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/oxbow-15-oz-oxbow-alfalfa-hay ) ( https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/you-and-me-small-animal-grape-wood-chews ) I don't think dog biscuits are the best option.

Both can be offered as treats but in small amounts. Don't leave a whole one in the cage as Sushi may eat that instead of his hamster food. A healthier choice would be Whimzees (by Paragon). These treats have less chemicals and are vegetarian as well.
