Highlighted Reviews

— Dan

"Our favorite Vitakraft Yogurt treats were temporarily out of stock so I tried these and not disappointed. In fact, when I did get our old favorite back, several times I put them out at the same time and Heidi always went for Smoochers Banana/Strawberry first!"

— Ken

"Was hoping these might be soft like Vitacrafts vanilla drops (which are now hard to find). My dog has had a few teeth removed. He couldn't chew these. I took them to the dog shelter where I volunteer and very few of the shelter dogs liked them too"

Bottom Line

If your dog enjoys hard, crunchy treats and has no dental issues, these might be a good option. However, if your dog has trouble chewing or prefers softer treats, consider a different product. The flavor and aroma were praised by some, but the texture and lack of softness were major complaints.
