Hill's Prescription Diet t/d Dental Care Chicken Flavor Small Bites Dry Dog Food, 5-lb bag

My 8-year-old Chihuahua mix took to this food right away (fortunately, she's not the finicky eater my older Chi is, but is more like a canine garbage disposal if left to her own devices), although it's too soon to tell how effective it will be at keeping her teeth healthy (but I am optimistic). However, I was quite surprised at the size of the kibble. I'm used to standard commercial brands like Eukanuba, Blue Buffalo, and Nutro, whose small breed kibble is truly small pieces. I double-checked the package to make sure this was, in fact, "small bites" kibble, since the pieces are significantly larger than even standard-size kibble. Since my dog only gets 1/2 cup at a time, it's easier for me just My 8-year-old Chihuahua mix took to this food right away (fortunately, she's not the finicky eater my older Chi is, but is more like a canine garbage disposal if left to her own devices), although it's too soon to tell how effective it will be at keeping her teeth healthy (but I am optimistic).

My question is if I feed this to my dog why should I still have to go through the expense of dental cleaning? Shouldn’t this prevent that build up? Our little girl loves these biscuits but the expense and the issue of still having to have her teeth cleaned is my question.

We have had miniature Schnauzers for decades. We started them on a full diet of these small dental chews about 5 years ago at the recommendation of our Vet. It has kept them healthy, happy, and reduced dental cleanings by at least half! It has also kept them at a proper weight, even while on free feeding. I think this is a secret that too few people know about.

We have 5 dogs and 5 cats, several of them on RX diets and we all love Chewy. The service is excellent and the prices good too. Thank you for being such an excellent company to deal with. I have told everyone I know about Chewy! I recently heard a wonderful story about Chewy showing kindness to a couple who lost their dogs. You refunded the money for unopened bags of food and told them to donate the food rather than send it back.

Due to a vet visit where Baxter had a lot of tartar buildup, it was suggested that I feed him the Dental Care from Hill's. I ordered it and received it quickly, and my dog loves it. When I tried to add his former food into the bowl with the new food, he ignored his former favorite food for the Dental Care Chicken Flavor small bites. He cleans his bowl every day.

This was recommended by my vet , as treats, to help with the tartar issues 2 of my dogs are having. They love it and it seems to be helping . I do wish the price was better ( lower ). Since it is working I will continue this as treats until only as maintenance.

My dog, a very fussy eater loves this dental product! She takes it from her dish, hides it, goes and finds it and then proceeds to eat it right in front of me. Great product, good game!

Both of my dogs love this food. I often just give them as treats & they love them. They do chew more on these bites as they are hard, which in turn causes them to do a better job of teeth cleaning.

I use the small bites dog food as dog treats. I discovered them when I took one of my dogs to get their teeth cleaned and the vet sent home a goodie bag. This food was inside. I thought they were dog treats because of their size. I called my vet to see what the treats were because the dogs love them so much. And it's actually dog food. For several years now I've use these as their treats and they love it. The bites are large intentionally because it helps them chew and break it up and clean the plaque and tartar off their teeth. They would eat it for food in the regular diet however I choose a grain free food. but we use these as treats and it's so much more economical and better for their teeth I use the small bites dog food as dog treats.
