    However, always keep an eye when your pup is chowing down on them – although they’re safe, there can be choking risks if they try to swallow large pieces. But as treats go, they’re packed with vitamins and minerals. Even picky eaters seem to dig ’em! Just remember though that treats should make up no more than 10% of your dog’s daily calories intake as per vet guidelines.

    Finally, always consult your vet before introducing new food or snacks – every fur baby is unique after all! Happy snacking to your doggie! 🐾

    Just thought I’d share my two cents on Greenies too – I’ve been using them for a while now with my Labrador, Suzy. Verbally, she can’t tell me if she likes them, obviously, but the excited tail wag when I open the bag might be a hint!

    That being said, I wouldn’t exactly call Greenies “dog food”. They’re dental chews and treats that help with oral hygiene. Honestly, they’ve worked wonders for Suzy’s breath! But don’t get carried away and replace regular meals with these – that won’t do any good.

    Price-wise, yes, they are a bit on the higher side compared to other brands. However, considering the benefits and fewer trips to the vet for dental issues, I think it’s worth it.

    The big downside? Suzy’s stools afterwards can be a bit…how shall I put it…squishy. Not all dogs have this issue but ya might want to take note!

    Overall, each dog is different – just because Suzy enjoys Greenies doesn’t mean every dog will. Always best to give new stuff a trial run!
    Remember folks – moderation is key when it comes to treats. Let’s keep our fur babies happy and healthy! Cheers!

    Hands down, my pup Jasper is pretty addicted to Greenies! They’ve been a part of his diet for almost two years now. And let me tell you, his dental health has improved drastically. Our vet was pleasantly surprised at the last checkup!

    The only downside I see is that they’re a bit pricey in comparison to other dog treats. But considering the added benefits it delivers to Jasper’s overall health, and how much he enjoys them, I think they’re worth the price.

    Here’s a pro tip though – If you find they’re a bit too tough for your furry friend’s liking or if you have an older dog, try microwaving them for about 10-15 seconds. Softens them right up! Make sure they cool down before letting your pooch dig in though.

    Cheers!

    But remember, every dog is different. What works for mine might not work for yours. Best is to trial and error with small sized bags first or maybe ask your vet for some professional advice. Happy dog parenting!

    The ingredient list checked out OK when I glanced at it, nothing too egregious. But each pup is an individual so what can be glorious for mine might not be the best for another. Perhaps start off slow, maybe try out some samples first if they have ’em? Hope that helps! Let us know how it goes if you decide to try it!

    One word of caution though – they can be high in calories so just make sure you adjust your dog’s meal portions accordingly so our furry pals don’t pack on the pounds!

    Stay paw-sitive! 🐾

    But hey, for our fur-balls’ choppers and that swap-meet breath they got going? Total game changer. Sure enough though, their bank-account-friendly pricing got my eyebrows doing the tango. But as far as Fido’s nashers are concerned? Nothing short of sorcery!

    Just don’t count on them being a five-star Michelin meal for your pampered pooch. But if pure joy’s your goal (and isn’t it always?), these weirdly shaped green bones might just do the trick.

    I’ve done some extensive research too before introducing him to Greenies. What I found out is that they’re generally well-accepted by the vet community, but as with everything, they aren’t without controversy. Some dog parents worry about possible choking hazards or digestive blockages if their furbabies gobble the treat too quickly and don’t chew enough.

    My approach has been to supervise Max at chow time juts to be on the safe side—you know, treat it less like a routine snack and more like an interactive engaging time with him. And so far, *touch wood* we haven’t faced any issues.

    All things considered, I think Greenies are a useful supplement for oral care in dogs but definitely not a replacement for regular brushing or professional cleanings. So maybe give them try under supervision and see how your pup reacts? All dogs are different so what works for one may not work for all!

    Good luck and pass on a head scratch from me to your furry buddy! 🐾

    To be honest, my fur babies are pretty much obsessed – it’s like snacky nirvana for them! 🐾 They go nuts for those tasty Greenie morsels and I love that they’re doing some behind-the-scenes dental work for me – fewer vet dentistry bills? Yes, please! Plus, bonus points for easy digestion – no more upset tums! 👌 On the slight downside though, they tend to run on the pricier side, but what can ya do? Good things never come cheap.

    All in all, they’ve been a paw-some addition in our house. But you know what they say – every doggo’s different, so might not be every pup’s cup of tea! Happy snacking! 😊

    I’ve done quite a bit of reading about the ingredients too and I’m pretty impressed. They’re all-natural, crafted with real meat, fruits and veggies – no artificial things that you can’t even pronounce! Plus, Bella goes bananas when she hears the Greenies bag rustle; she definitely loves the taste. Regular vet check-ups have given us nothing but positives so far; so in my book, it’s a big thumbs-up!

    The only downside might be the price—it’s a touch on the pricier side compared to some other brands. But hey, we consider it an investment in Bella’s long-term health which is super important to us.

    Remember every pup is unique though! What works for one may not for another. So definitely talk to your vet before switching up your dog food if you’re unsure.

    Hope that helps you out on your journey to finding the perfect chow for your furry buddy! 🐾

    So you’re curious about Greenies, huh? I’ve been using them for my golden retriever, Toby, for a couple of months now and his coat has never looked better! It’s clear he loves the taste too – he practically does backflips when he sees me reach for the bag.

    Jokes aside, I did my homework before making the switch. Greenies are well-balanced and vet-recommended. Super important as we all want our fur babies to be healthy! They’re great for dental hygiene as well – his breath is definitely fresher.

    That said, they can be a tad expensive compared to other dog foods out there. So if budget is an issue, this might not be ideal. Also watch your dog’s reaction to them; some dogs have sensitive tummies and might not respond positively.

    It’s really up to you whether they work within your pup’s nutrition routine or not! Just keep in mind— every dog’s different. What works wonderfully for Toby might not be a slam dunk for your pooch!

    Happy feeding!

    Just had to jump in on this conversation because I swear by Greenies! My fur-baby, Bailey, is absolutely bonkers for them, and happy day, they suit her sensitive tummy too. Not gonna lie, it took a bit of trial and error to find the right brand. But these guys? 10/10 from us both.

    Bailey’s breath improved pretty fast after starting Greenies (much appreciated, let me tell ya!), and her pesky tartar build-up has seriously reduced too. These treats are like a secret weapon for dental care which is always a huge plus.

    And the regular sizes aren’t as chunky as some other brands, so don’t expect any leftovers! 😄

    Did I mention that they’re easy for her to digest? They’ve done wonders for her overall health and happiness.

    That being said, every pup is different – isn’t that part of their charm? 😉 So it might be worth trying a small bag first to see if they sit well with your four-legged friend before fully committing!

    Good luck!
