My dog, a medium sized is not a fussy eater but does not like this much. This came as recommendation from the Vet as my dog just had a root canal and his teeth need maintenance and they say this would help. Unfortunately, he gained weight considerably and the kibble does not smell very appetising.
Bottom Line
No, I wouldn't recommend this product to a friend

This product was recommended to us by the vet , to assist our aiding in the dental upkeep of our dog. Its a large, dry , husk like biscuit that needs to be broken down before swallowing , forcing our dog to chew a few times. It is expensive when you consider the large portion size , but after a few months its actually did reduce tartar problem and helped keep dental issues at bay. it is pricey but still cheaper than going to the vets all the time. we mix it with other dog food and that works well, and helps make it more economical. would recommend for any dog with dental issues.Does the trick for our greyhound and older beagle.
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend
Happy dog..

My dog's pretty fussy and not really a big eater but she seems quite happy with this - thank goodness because it's expensive & she needs it for her teeth. I usually mix it with another dry food so it lasts longer and so she doesn't get too tired of it. (It's super messy though if, like mine, your dog stashes crackers in it's mouth to eat all around the house.. funny dogs.)
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend
Comments
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.
Bottom Line
Yes, I'd recommend this product to a friend
