How Sassy Treats helps with Dental Health and Hygiene
Feeding raw meaty bones and dehydrated chewing treats can significantly improve dental hygiene in dogs and cats. We have a huge range of dried chewing options from our own kitchen safe for cats, allergic dogs and pancreatic dogs using single protein australian produce. Here’s how it bones and treats work:
1. Mechanical Cleaning
Chewing on raw bones or tough, dehydrated Sassy Treats scrapes away plaque and tartar from teeth, much like brushing. This natural abrasion helps reduce the buildup that leads to dental disease.
2. Saliva Stimulation
Chewing increases saliva production, which contains enzymes that help control oral bacteria and keep the mouth cleaner. More licking and chewing: more saliva!
3. Jaw Exercise and Gum Health
Gnawing on non-weight bearing bones or tough Sassy Treats strengthens jaw muscles and massages the gums, promoting blood circulation and reducing inflammation or gum disease.
4. Natural Antibacterial Action
Raw bones and some dehydrated animal parts (like our Cannoli, Roo Toobs, Wizard Wands ) may contain natural enzymes and nutrients that inhibit harmful bacteria in the mouth.
*5. Calming properties of chewing. *
When dogs chew, they release dopamine, the pleasure drug. The feel calmer, and happier, and “rewarded”.
Important Caveats:
- At Sassy Treats Never stock or supply cooked bones, and stick to non weight bearing bones like tails and necks
- Please Supervise chewing to prevent choking or damage to teeth . Accidently do happen. Take away Turkey Leg bones when the two ends have been finished.
