Redbarn's Ham Bones are a natural way to clean teeth and exercise muscles. They improve a dog’s dental health by exercising gums and scraping teeth. These natural bones can be fed anytime as a snack or reward, as a substitute for chewing furniture (especially useful for teething puppies!), to occupy a dog during travel time or to help alleviate separation anxiety. They provide an enjoyable chewing experience and satisfy a dogs natural carnivorous instincts.
