"They were so hard my older dog could not even bite it. Also, I could not break it. They are in the cabinet. Maybe I will give to a very large dog."

Bottom Line

If your dog has dental issues or is a small breed, you may want to consider a softer treat. Someone with a larger breed might find this product satisfactory but expect that the treat will take a noticeably longer time to chew. Will make a great high reward given at a high rate, and for this reason worth the price.
