Some of the information in this post, a thank you gift card, gift pack and the following giveaway have been provided to me by SmartBones®. However, all opinions are mine alone.
My dog Riley is pretty well-behaved. He knows how to sit, give paw, roll over, come when called and can stay in the yard when he goes potty.
While that all looks nice on paper, he can sometimes be mischievous.
If there are any dog treats in the house whatsoever, he will somehow open our door to the pantry, and drag a bag of treats off the shelf. He also magically opens said bag, eats some treats then hides the rest.
He hides his treats anywhere and everywhere. We’ve found them in closets, in shoes, behind dressers and under radiators.
He’s an interesting dog to say the least.
When packages of SmartBones® found their way into our pantry, he pulled his usual stunt one day when we left the house without him.
I arrived home to see the pantry door open and an empty, ripped bag of SmartBones® Beef Chews lying under my dining room table.
At first I thought he ate them all, but then as the day went on I saw him searching and digging around the house. He gets extra credit for not eating every single one and for being smart enough to save some for later. ?
If you’ve never heard of SmartBones®, they are the healthy alternative to Rawhide®. SmartBones® chews are rawhide-free, highly digestible, and 100% delicious.
Many veterinarians are actually concerned with the potential health risks associated with dogs consuming rawhide.
These health risks include: stomach & intestinal blockage and potential ingestion of toxic chemicals used to process rawhide chews.
Independent digestibility studies show that SmartBones® chews are highly digestible, and tests demonstrate that 9 out of 10 dogs prefer SmartBones chews over the leading rawhide chews.
That’s because the outer layer of SmartBones® are made of wholesome, flavorful vegetables, including sweet potatoes, peas and carrots. Now you know why Riley ripped open the entire bag of the Beef Chews.
If you think your furry friend will love these too, they are available in recipes such as Chicken, Sweet Potato, Peanut Butter, and Dental.
Do your pet a favor and enter the giveaway below. You could win (1) $25 Visa gift card and a variety of SmartBones® chews.
Giveaway is open to U.S. residents only. Also, no P.O. Boxes, please. Contest runs from Thursday, August 18, 2016 until Thursday, August 25, 2016.
Good luck!
