Actually the issue came up because I had to take the item away. It was a beef rib, which I don't have a problem allowing them to chew, but once they get all the residual meat off it and start trying to break the bone, I have to confiscate it. She did not appreciate that one bit and growled at us trying to take it away. The obvious answer is to not let her have them any more, but I'm more concerned about the behavior than that particular food item. I need to make it clear she can't EVER growl or bare her teeth at Alex and I for taking something away - for her own safety!
