My dog likes it but it does get stuck in her gums, but that is the idea as it's a dental food. It does make some mess, but then my puppy cleans it up! She does eat it usually in two sittings.
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend

Decided to give this product a go as I spend a fortune on Dental chews. My choc labX at 7yrs has never needed dental work... and the amount I spend on prevention I'd be annoyed if she did need treatment. This is a great alternative and I just give her 5-6 a day as a treat, or after meal times to maintain her gums and teeth.She has a sensitive stomach so the fact she tolerates these is a big plus. They are larger biscuits so not suited for small dogs unless broken down. My vet happy with my dogs oral care... and say's the expense is worth it.

after having ten teeth removed in December 2016, the vet suggested I change my dog's food. There hasn't been a problem with her teeth since.
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend
They certainly have to crunch it and they seem to like it but you have to feed so much to them that I have to wonder how nutritious it is. We only give a portion with their other kibble as it would be too expensive to use it any other way.
