"He enjoys it as though it’s a treat. Wags his tail whenever he gets one. It’s once daily but he loves it so much I sometimes feel like giving him two."
"We tried these dental treats as we were trying to transition our seniors dog's diet. These were much harder than what he'd had in the past. And he didn't like them at all. He's back to the Pedigree DentalClix and loves them."
