DentaLife Daily Oral Care Chicken Flavor Mini Dental Dog Treats, 58 count

I was really excited to try these treats for my shih tzu/poodle rescue as they were only 25 calories a piece. He isn’t a huge fan of me brushing his teeth so any extra help from VOHC treats is a bonus. My dog is a “chonky” 16 pounds and has a relatively short, smooshed in nose. He’s very food motivated and excited. He’s always supervised when treats are given but he pretty much inhaled this treat the only time I tried giving him one and I actually worried it was choking hazard. The treats are both hard as needed to be dental chews but soft enough thankfully to bite off pieces. He pretty much shoved the whole piece to the back of his throat and bit 3/4 of it off and swallowed it almost whole! I think this size would be best for very small dogs and delicate chewers. I may try giving my little monster the next size up to see if he can handle that a bit better. Otherwise, these may not be the treats for us.

Three out of 3 dogs of mine enjoyed a Purina DentaLife Daily Oral Care Mini Dental Dog Treat every evening before bed. I have adopted older dogs less than 20 lbs. that need good oral care, which can be expensive and time-consuming. Although I am lazy and cheap, my dogs loved Purina chews so much that they would even remind me to give the chews at a regular time. These chews are so small and simple that dogs can have one a day. My companion and I are both happy!

Had to get a smaller dental chew for our wee 8 lb. girl, but our 16 lb. boy eats one of these every morning. Absolutely loves it. It's been maybe 6 months and today I realized his breath is not gross anymore. Not at all. He used to stink, and doggie kisses were most unpleasant. Now he's so much better. I would definitely recommend these, just not for teeny mini pups, since they're a fat little log of a dental chewie.

Bentley is a nine year old mixed breed that has some tartar build up so hopefully since he likes these treats they will help with that.
