[nagdu] Warning about Nylabone

[sam]

I had thought that all nylabones weren't created equal.  I get my 
dog a nylabone, but it is suppose to be eaten.  I think it is 
called healthy (something)  Sorry, can't remember, for I don't 
have a pacage here at this time.  Did the article say all types 
of nylabones, for there are several.  Come to think of it, I 
don't remember seeing the article posted.  Did I just miss that?  
Can someone be so kind as to direct me to it?  Thanks,

Sam and Abby
