Question

Is it okay for my dog to chew on a willow tree stick? Pet's info: Dog | Cavalier King Charles Spaniel | Female | spayed | 4 months and 6 days old | 13.5 lbs

No, I would not let her chew on any wood actually. Willow trees can toxic if the bark is ingested. Wood pieces in generally are not digested and can lead to an obstruction, vomiting and bloody diarrhea, or cough and choking.
