Virbac C.E.T. Enzymatic Oral Hygiene Chews, Medium Dog, 30 Count

So - our little furry guy started to develop bad breath about 6 months ago. Not a tooth brush kinda guy ... lol ... asked the vet what they recommend for dog breath issues - they recommended these chews along with Virbac C.E.T Aquadent Dental Solution for Dogs and Cats (250 ml). Started using both & I'd say within three days - our little furry guy's breath is 100% better. Use the dental solution in his water with every water change - I just use a 3/4 cap measure & he's fine with it. Follow up with giving him a chew twice a week & he's good. Love's these chews - they last about 1/2 day once he get's going on these. He's NOT a huge power chewer - but loves these.

My Grandoggy Loves these treats We give her One a day. She is 50 Pounds I've found the Medium size treats work better for her in that she takes longer to chew on it in thatThe smaller size of these she could eat tons of them in a single day. My only problem with these is that the are So Expensive. Amazon please Offer a discount for buying multiple bags.

This is the first review I've written here, but I am so happy with this product that I had to write something. My dogs have all been using this product for about a year now, and their teeth have been in great shape ever since. It used to be that every time I took them to the vet, she told me that I needed to be more diligent in brushing their teeth because they had tartar buildup. So I spent hundreds of dollars having their teeth professionally cleaned once a year on her recommendation, but I was still bad about brushing. It's not that I don't want to take care of them, but my dogs are all around 60 lbs and HATE having their teeth brushed.Since I started using this product, I went back for their checkups and the vet was so happy with their teeth and thought I had finally started being good about brushing them. When I told her that I was using this product, she looked it up and is now recommending it to all her clients. 0 tartar or plaque buildup! The best part is that my babies think this is a treat for them, and they get so excited every day when they get their chew. I couldn't ask for a better product. The only thing my vet said is to make sure they don't have more than what's recommended because the enzymes will be bad for them in larger doses, so follow the label.I would give this more stars if I could. Excellent product!

I have a 4yr old 30lb male beagle mix who absolutely LOVES these chews. I had originally bought them for the sole purpose of promoting good dental health, thinking my dog might chew on them if he got bored or if it was the only chew I gave him. You see, he's usually very picky- he won't chew antlers or bones, unflavored rawhide, nylabones, and though he'll lick peanut butter out of a kong, he doesn't do much if I put a treat in there. To my surprise, as soon as my dog smells these chews, he can hardly control himself, he get so excited! They smell a little funky (meaty), but I think that's all part of what makes my dog love these chews.This is great for us, since it means he gets an after-dinner treat he loves, they have helped keep his teeth relatively plaque free, and they help keep his breath from smelling bad. Of course, his mouth doesn't exactly smell like your favorite flower (unless your favorite flower smells like dog breath), but I have noticed that the distance at which I start to smell my dog's stinky dog-breath has shortened significantly, and his breath no longer causes people distress from a distance. Also nice is that these chews last a little while. For my dog, they will keep him occupied for around 15 minutes. This is great compared to the Kong brand fresh breath treats, which my dog chewed through right away, and they did very little for his teeth.To address other reviewers' comments, I should caution that my dog is somewhat small at 30lbs, and he is an incredibly patient chewer (though he will chew for very long periods of time). He will calmly chew his rawhides, etc, until he gets nice small pieces to swallow, and he avoids pieces that are too big to swallow, so these treats present little choking hazard for him. I understand the issue though, and I'd recommend that you treat these like any other thin rawhide squares, which is to say that they are a pretty big hazard for choking or for your dog swallowing large un-chewed pieces (which can cause an upset tummy). As with any rawhide-type treat, you should supervise your dog when you give these to them, especially the first few times. My biggest complaint of these chews is that I think they would last longer and be less of a choking hazard if they came as twists or rolls, instead of flat pieces, since the flat pieces are pretty easy to break.Since too much of a good thing is usually a bad thing, I also try to limit the number of these chews I give to my dog, since they appear to very similar to beef hide, and I don't want to give him too many hide chews. So, I give him one of these every other day, depending on the other treats he has had that day, and I alternate with greenies or other dental-type chews, so he has a variety of chews, but he gets some sort of dental health chew every day.

My vet highly recommended these chews to help my large labs (70-88 pounds) maintain good dental hygiene. Brushing their teeth even with chicken flavored tooth paste just did not work for us. My dogs really love these chews and jump for joy each morning in anticipation of a chew. The chews have really helped with their teeth. I can even see a difference with whiter teeth and less build up especially towards the back of their mouths. Some of the large size chews are too much for my older lab and she will stop chewing after a few bites (they are too thick). So I buy medium chews for her and select the thinner ones among the large size. The thickness is the problem for her. But I think you should be careful not to give your dog a chew that is too small. My labs will swallow one that is too small very quickly. Always watch your dogs with the chews to be sure they are not having a problem with the chews. My labs like these so much that I was able to give up the expensive rawhides that I had been buying for them. And I really think they help their teeth. There is a premium version of this product which is more expensive and has a strange odor to it. I tried it a few times but much prefer this product. So do my labs!
