My dog is very mouthy. He loves to lick, nip (the herder in him), and carry things in his mouth all day.
He used to have a routine of chewing a benebone in the morning and following me around while I get ready. He also chews at night. Well, unfortunately he wore out one prominent tooth and cracked so we had to get it removed.
Our vet told us nothing too hard for him because he is a frequent chewer and advised against tennis balls which he LOVES. Doggy specialized Tennis balls okay like Kong brand or Boots and Barkley or whatever the Target brand is. So you are right, normal tennis balls not recommended for dogs per our vet.
I hope your baby is doing okay today. Give them lots of hugs for us!
To be honest I was a little on the fence about the tennis balls that were advertised as safe, but they seem to be okay for now.
I think one thing which needs to be considered is that a tennis ball can have a really nasty wear pattern across many of their teeth, making it super easy for nerves to get irritated with enough time.
