afraid of pig ears???

comedy_net Feb 02, 2005 05:34 PM

My dog will not chew some pig ears i got him he wants to but instead he jsut barks at it. Im guessing its because he hit his head at the same time he went for it at first so i think he might think it hurt him. Pleas anyone give me some advice on getting him to chew these things!!!!!!!

Id appreicitae it greatly.

Personally I'd get him over being afraid of them and then get rid of them. I don't trust those things for the health of the dogs who chew them. Here's a link to an article on how to help a dog get over a fear:
