Dogs holding rocks in their mouths can potentially face several risks, such as:
Broken or damaged teeth
Choking hazards
Intestinal blockages if swallowed
Risk of poisoning from contaminants on the rocks
Wearing down of their teeth
It is crucial to monitor your dog's behavior closely and discourage them from carrying, chewing, or swallowing rocks. Always provide safe and appropriate toys for your dog to interact with and consult your veterinarian if you notice any concerning habits.
