    Dear Nitya...
    Please go to a good pet shop they have veg varieties of chew bones also... some are made of raw hide which takes Harley 2-3 days to finish and the others are made of peanuts etc.. check them out... also give her carrot / beetroot / celery stick to chew on... Harley loves to bite on Plastic stools also... but that can also cut their gums... so be careful...
    Hope you are giving her calcium/ protein/ vitamin supplements also.
    get her dentastix they are good for the gums and prevent plaque.

    Hi Kelly,

    we have started to hive her supplements and what ever is boiled we give her.her favourite is poiled potatoes.it is rich in proteins.As sullpliments we give her Top Cal [ oral calcium phosphotous - liquid feed suplliment/ & Verol - Amino acids and multivitamin syrup.We have started on Classic - veg food [similar to Pedigree [ and she likes it if buttermilk/curd is added.
    Anything associated with milk/milkproducts - she is allergic and gets loose motion.we realised this when we gave a cheese biscuits and Parle- milk biscuits. now we are trying her to give little sambar[diluted ] so that she gets enough cereals.

    Dear Nitya...
    If our little one is in a "chewy" mood then cooked food will not give her satisfaction... why don't you get her some chewy toy or give her a sock to chew on... They are just like babies only stronger so you need to give them something that satisfies their urge of chewing...
    About the diet... Harley also has a more or less veg diet... we boil rice/ dals (moong, masur, tur) soya chunks, carrot/ beans/ potatoes and any other veg (no garlic or onion) in the house with a spoon of ragi in the cooker and add milk / curd with it and give him. In the afternoons sometimes we add a boiled egg or boiled chicken and in the nights i add a cupfull of dog food.
    Mornings he has milk / 4 chappattis & banana. he also has fruits later on.
    we give him dog biscuits... its better than giving marie or glucose.
    hope this will help
