Oravet Dental Hygiene Chews for Large Dogs 50+ lbs

A Miracle for Our Rescue Pup! (Plus a great money-saving hack) These are by far the best dental chews we have ever found. I’ve tried several other brands, but none work like these do. We adopted a rescue Pomeranian who was in terrible shape when she arrived—she wasn’t eating and was so weak she was literally falling over. Her breath was incredibly foul, making the whole house smell like a dead animal. When I checked her mouth, she had massive plaque buildup and dark, fire-red gums. It was heartbreakingly clear she was in severe pain. While waiting two weeks for her vet appointment, we got her on some pain/inflammation management and started giving her these chews. The turnaround was miraculous. Within just a few days, she began drinking, eating, and gaining her energy back. When we finally saw the vet, he was so impressed with her progress that he suggested we hold off on a stressful dental procedure for now, as he didn't want to traumatize her any further after everything she'd been through. Fast forward to today: her breath no longer smells, and her teeth look so much better but are still a work in progress. She still has more progress to go, but they are definitely so much better! She is eating normally and chewing on regular things like a normal, happy dog now. She has done a complete 180, and I credit these chews immensely. Money-saving tip for multi-dog homes: I have three Pomeranians, so I buy the large dog size bars and cut each one into 6 small pieces. Each dog gets one small piece in the morning and one in the evening. It’s an amazing hack that really helps save money when you have multiple small pups in the house! I highly recommend these.

Amazing product. Really helps my dogs teeth and breath. He absolutely adores them and he gets so excited before we go to bed because that’s when he gets . Biggest issue is that the price has gone up almost 45% since I started buying these three years ago. I don’t know if this is Amazon dynamic pricing or what, so I probably needed to look into another provider because I guarantee you those employees aren’t getting 45% more pay.

My dog doesn’t go a day without one. He loves the flavor, the chewy-ness of it, and it doesn’t stink up my hands. I used to be in the veterinary business and oravet is what we recommended to all fur baby owners. Clean ingredients and easy to digest. Though be aware that the first few poops may be green… 🤣 and can dry black. They last well and stay fresh being packaged individually… so you don’t have to panic if the bag gets left unsealed… which happens a lot with the husband. My dogs breath is fresh and helps keep him out of the dental chair.

I felt compelled to write this review. We just got (2.5 weeks ago) a rescue who was a stray. His teeth had what looked to me like weird gray mounds at the back of the molars. He would not let us brush his teeth or come close to putting anything in his mouth. At first we tried the regular, hard teeth cleaning chews. He liked them fine, but those seemed to just be a fun chew for him. We then decided to splurge on the OraVet Chews, which, granted, were quite expensive, but we were hoping to at least stall the progression of dental issues that he appeared to have. Our dog loved them, and treats them like a high value treat. They appear to be semi-soft when he bites down, so his teeth sink into the chew (as opposed to the more traditional, very hard tooth chews that just seem to crumble and are consumed quite quickly). Within a week of starting these we noticed that his teeth appeared whiter, and we could no longer find the gray at the back of his mouth. His breath also improved greatly. I would highly recommend this (at least to try) to anyone, I cannot believe that these chews were able to do this in just under a week.

My dog loves these dental chews! They smell surprisingly like milk chocolate (even though they're made for dogs), and my dog gets excited every time it's treat time. They're easy to give and make dental care much easier. Highly recommended!
