"Our older dog loved these...it was a lot better for her older teeth and gums"

— rebecca

"I was drawn to the 'strong chew' feature of this item but didn't realize it was for 'senior' dogs. Chunks of this bone were immediately broken off this bone and I had to take it away from my dogs. A total disappointment and waste of money."
