5.0 out of 5 starsGood for sensitive dog!
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2017
My dog is 10.5 pounds and we get these in carrot in the mini size. He gets one a day. We like them and so does he!
About my dog: he's 8 years old now, has aging teeth (plaque/tartar, getting unpleasant breath, but he isn't missing any teeth and they're in otherwise good condition). He has so many food sensitivities to different types of meats and all grains, so he's on a grain free, single protein food.
What we like about these bones: Firstly they have great ingredients! They also don't smell bad like many dog treats/bones do. To me, they have an herbal, carrot/pumpkin smell. They don't have animal protein, which is great for my dog because of his sensitivities. This would also be good for people who'd rather avoid meat products for whatever reason. These bones get rid of his bad breath and he really enjoys them.
Things that aren't as good for us: the bones aren't that hard (I could break one in half by hand pretty easily) and don't last very long (less than 5 mins), so in that way they're similar to treats. I sort of wish they'd last longer, but he really does enjoy them and they do help his breath as I said.
This next thing isn't really a con since it's harmless, but just so everyone is aware, this product may cause orange tinged stools due to the carrot and pumpkin ingredients. This is normal and doesn't harm the dog.
Overall, even though these won't fix his teeth by getting rid of all the built up plaque, we love them because they do help his breath and I feel they may help prevent more plaque from building up. He also really enjoys them and "asks" for one every evening when he normally gets one. I'm so glad to have found a bone that does not upset his stomach. I recommend them.
