Questions & Answers

12 Customer Questions


How long should 1 bottle last?

Answer by ChewyJan 26, 2021
1 capful is 10 ml, and the recommended dose is 2 capfuls to 600 ml of water. Therefore, one bottle of our water additive can make 25 recommended doses if the you make 600 ml of water every time you refill the water bowl. A bottle lasts longer than a month if the household is with one small to medium sized dog, however, one bottle won't last even a month if it is a multi-pet household.

Is this VOHC approved?

I prepared the drinking water adding the Bluestream as directed. The dog refused to drink it. I tried refilling the bowl adding 1/4 the recommended amount; the dog refused it. It may be tasteless to some dogs but Riley tasted it, and this a dig that drinks water out of mud puddles when out for a walk.

My veterinarian recommend this and it has helped reduce the tarter build up on my dogs teeth [8 lb maletoypoodle).....(I brush his teeth about once or twice a month). I put a cupful in his water and he doesn't mind it at all. Our last veterinarian visit went well and his teeth are looking good (just a little bit on the back teeth but I can't get to those places, my dog fights me when I try)

I have been using this for a few weeks now and can already tell a difference in my dog's breath so I have to assume it is helping with the tarter on his teeth. I was a little concerned that he wouldn't drink the water with an additive in it but that isn't the case. I am filling his water bowl as frequently as before.

My dog has Chronic Ulcerative Paradental Stomatis (CUPS) and our Vet recommended this product along with changing his diet to help decrease plaque buildup and to freshen his breath. Almost a week after using this as an additive and changing his diet (prescription diet) his oral hygiene increased significantly. I love this product and because CUPS is a lifelong disease, I will be using this for the rest of my dog's life.

My dog has an irregular heartbeat and can't be sedated for dental cleanings. So, this dental rinse definitely comes in handy. My dog drinks it with no hesitation. It's obviously not as effective as a full dental cleaning from the vet, but it takes away that brutal dog breath by, I'd say, 25%. He still has dog breath, but it's far less pungent.

This product is supposed to help keep tartar off of teeth and help with fresh breath. Not sure about the tartar but after a couple weeks of using I can definitely tell it helps with a fresh breath.

It’s a shame that something this simple could cost so much.

Good stuff!

Since began adding 2 capfuls per 20 oz water as per instructions, my 7 yo cats' bad breath has improved. Cat with previous tooth extractions had a good checkup!

Since began adding 2 capfuls per 20 oz water as per instructions, my 7 yo cats' bad breath has improved. Cat with previous tooth extractions had a good checkup! Both drink the water, no problems to my knowledge, although another water bowl without the additive is available in other room. Our new rescue dog, who needs teeth cleaning, has also started drinking their water so hoping his breath will improve!
