There are "safe" rawhides out there. Just don't go for the cheapest ones, like the ones at the dollar stores. when I do rawhide, I do the ones without dye. Kuchi likes the ones by dingo.
If I told you how some of our food is processed you wouldn't want to eat it either, but that doesn't mean that isn't safe to eat.
A quote from the daneangelnetwork...
Your dog’s gastric juices WILL NOT break down the rawhide. Once swollen, the piece then has the potential to cause anything from mild to severe gastric upset, to death.
Well that would scare a lot of people. I don't see how the rawhide wouldn't be in their waste though, just keep an eye on him. That could happen to anything, raw bone, piece of nylabone (if you dog can break it down, which mine can), parts of a toy, etc.
