"First time buying these chews. My dogs still have them. They chew on them everyday !!!"

β€” KevinsAGirl

"Kevin loved them but that’s where the good part ends. It was not long lasting - she had them eaten up in about 10 minutes. It left white, paste-like residue all over her bed where she chewed it, along with her paws and mouth. And the smell made me want to throw up. Would not recommend at all, ..."
