Renew your dog’s interest in old chew toys
June 18, 2006
This tip came from Susan Raymond in Houston.
My dog has toys that he used to love. He chewed and played with them all the time. But now he's lost interest. I read somewhere to spray cooking spray on bones and other hard chews, then sprinkle with garlic salt. Works like a charm. And the garlic has added health benefits.

I have tried this on natural bones. It does work. Makes those toys last a little longer and gives the dog some variety.

Anything to help and old favorite not lose its flavor is a plus in my book! Great recommendations.

I tried it and it doesn’t work with my dog. I wonder if it would work with dog treats?

Ooooops. Isn’t garlic bad for dogs? I’ve read that the thiosulphate in garlic can upset your dog’s stomach, and if they eating too much of it can cause a form of anemia.
Editor’s Note: Garlic has been a natural insect repellent/flea control for many years. Although too much of anything would probably be bad for dogs, normal levels of garlic has many natural benefits for people and dogs. - LW
