Delicious!
By ShedNoMore on Sep 27, 2020
My dogs Love these treats. As soon as they hear the package open they come running. It has only been a couple of weeks since we started giving these to our huskies daily. I’m not seeing any change in the amount of shedding yet. Fingers crossed this item will help. If I have less fur on the floor I will happily continue to buy this product.

My English Bulldog loves these!
By BoxerGirl13 on Sep 20, 2020
These Shed treats work. I used them for about 3 months with my Boxer and then stopped. Within a couple weeks I started him back on them. They really make a difference. No they won't stop seasonal shedding but nothing will. You have to be patient in the beginning and use them daily. Also my English Bulldogs loves them!

Amazing difference!
By Hollyr on Jul 9, 2020
We rescued a mixed breed pup from Puerto Rico who has every kind of fur...long and wiry guard hairs, fluffy undercoat and “normal” fur on her face. We found it all EVERYWHERE and I was vacuuming twice a day...and swiffering...and lint rolling. I was desperate. She was probably adjusting to our climate and blowing her coat, but it was more than just the undercoat. We washed and conditioned her with Furminator and it helped but didn’t solve it. We gave her these as treats daily and it did take about 5 weeks to work. Then one day I realized I had skipped a day to vacuum...after 7 weeks the shedding is minimal...probably the same as from her humans. She is no longer itching and rarely chews her We rescued a mixed breed pup from Puerto Rico who has every kind of fur...long and wiry guard hairs, fluffy undercoat and “normal” fur on her face.

Nutri-Vet disappoints
By Corin on May 22, 2020
I bought Nutri-Vet chew vitamins and my Dog loved them. Unfortunately the Nutrition- Vet shed defense were hard and stale. They were not chewable and my dog could not chew them. I had to throw the package away. What a bad experience!

Better than promised!
By Belle on Apr 8, 2020
We called to ask about information for our dog with her other skin conditions and were given instructions. We were also told to expect to wait a month or more to see results. We began seeing less hair around the house about 3 weeks in.

Soft treats for a little dog with few teeth. I think they have helped her hair not fall out so much. However, dog loved them, vet approves than.

They REally work
By Boss on Mar 9, 2020
My short haired boxer/great dane mix used to shed like crazy but since he has been on these his shedding has really decreased. I just ordered his third bag and I will continue to order, as a matter of fact I added them to autoship.

Reduces Shesding
By awesome on Feb 8, 2020
My Great Dane loves these treats and they do help with shedding. The only downfall is if your dog weighs 120 pounds. Than you have to give them more of the treats per day. But I have to admit, they do reduce the shedding.

This has made ALL the difference
By GuiDes on Feb 7, 2020
My straight haired goldendoodle (she’s basically a golden retriever) was shedding to the point that I was vacuuming 4-5 times per day. We started this a week ago. She’s getting 5 of these a day. This product is AMAZING! She’s shedding like 70% less in just a week. Perhaps her shedding was due to omega deficiencies. I’m not sure what was causing the shedding but after starting this it’s like night and day. I barely vacuumed anything up last night. I am highly recommending this. Try it and make sure you are giving enough of them.
