Great for dogs who actually chew their food!
By Boom on Aug 31, 2016
My big dog loves the taste. My vet told me I just had to put in 1/3 of the total amount of this DH food. At first, my dog chewed these nuggets as this is how the food cleans his teeth. After a few days, my dog started swallowing the nuggests whole, so no chewing happened. Then I used the new nuggets as treats, which for the first few days he chewed, but now he is swallowing them whole whether I toss them or drop them on the floor. If your dog is a gulper and not a chewer, this food might not be effective.

Not Worth the Price
By jfrisco on Feb 29, 2016
Nice idea, which basically is already on the market, but this one you need a RX from your vet to obtain. (Prob so they can command a higher price) I have 6 mini schnauzers ranging 4 to 9 lbs each and this product does not differentiate size between the a German Shepard or a Yorkie. I had to use my Dremel to cut them in 1/2. I think there are other products are the market that do the same thing, are less time consuming (on me) and more economical. I was using a buy 1 get 1 free coupon and I still will not buy them again if that says anything..
