Lamb Lungs

    Lamb Lungs

    Today I bought some lamb lungs.  There were also pork and beef lungs there.  The receptionist and vet said they both like them and prefer the lamb to the other meats I think b/c less dogs are allergic to lamb.  They said to give it as a treat. 
     
    My main goal was to find some things I can give Izzy to chew on in her crate.  I will have to watch her with them a few times before I would give it to her in there but I know it would keep her chewing on it longer than just a regular treat.  She is really into chewing right now.  I also got her some heavy duty chew toys.
     
    Does anyone else give these to their dogs?  Are there health benefits to it or is it really just a treat?

    My dogs just chomp them down. I don't think they'd last long, as a chew. I'm not sure about the benefits, but the dogs LOVE them.

    I use them as a treat but they last as a quick chewy for a little puppy. I use them to get new dogs used to the idea that the crat is the place where Good Things Happen. They are not as expensive as freeze dried liver but some brands can be crumbled into "instant bits" for Pez Dispenser style treat training, in the same way.
