Ark Naturals Protection+ Brushless Toothpaste – Large Breeds, 18oz Bag – Dog Dental Chew with Toothpaste Center – Prevent Plaque & Tartar and Freshen Breath with Dental Chews for Dogs

My dog Milo has been using the ARK NATURALS Protection+ Brushless Toothpaste for Mini Breeds since he was a pup, and it’s been a fantastic addition to his daily routine for the past five years. He absolutely looks forward to these dental chews every morning, eagerly waiting for his "toothpaste treat." The chews are not only effective at keeping his teeth clean and fresh but also seem to genuinely enjoy the taste. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in his dental health, and they’ve helped reduce tartar buildup over the years. The 4oz bag is convenient and lasts quite a while, making it a great value. If you're looking for a reliable and enjoyable way to maintain your dog's dental hygiene, I highly recommend these chews—they’ve become an essential part of Milo's day!

This product is something I've been using for about a year and a half now on my pups. This option is cheaper and works better than greenies on my babies. I used greenies for a month or two and didn't see much improvement in breath or whiteness of their teeth.Out of a stroke of luck I found these for half price at my local Petco and decided to try them out, being a college student money was tight and the cheaper in bulk the better. I immediately saw a difference. My two pups breath got better, and my 5 year olds yellow/Browning teeth suddenly started whitening and looking healthier.To top it all off, my dogs can't get enough of them and are always ready for their toothy treat at 10am.10/10 I would recommend these treats to any dog owner <3

These help keep my dogs teeth and breath fresh. She looks forward to “brushing her teeth” they work well and have on auto ship

The product itself is 5 stars. We’ve tried so many different dental chews. My small dog used to enjoy dental sticks but he developed a masticular issue which prevents the full extension of his jaw. The mini Protection+ dental chews are perfect for him and he actually *loves* them. He acts like I’ve accidentally dropped a piece of steak and takes off with it as if I’m going to take it back. He runs to his food bowl and chews it there.My only complaint (and reason for 1 star deduction) is with the price. It has more than doubled in price over the past two months. It’s a small bag. The new price point makes me less likely to stick with this brand and more willing to explore new options.

I used to give my dog Bark Bright dental chews, but I had a couple of issues with the company. First, they provide a tube of "toothpaste" that you have to squirt inside the chew yourself. But the opening in the chew to insert the gel is smaller than the tip of the tube, so you can't really get the gel inside the chew very well.Secondly, when I tried to reorder Bark Bright from Amazon, only the kits were available, not just the chews. I still had a whole extra tube of the gel, and only wanted the chews. So I went to the Bark website to order. Immediately, there's a pop-up that says "Enter your email to get15% off your order." Once I entered my email, it took me to another screen where you ALSO have to put in your phone number to actually get the discount. By then it's too late. If you don't want to provide a phone number, you don't get the discount and they've already got your email. This is a shady business practice in my opinion. I emailed them about it and they replied with some BS answer, like a politician does when he says a bunch of stuff but doesn't really say anything at all.So I looked for a similar product and found ARK Naturals. They sell the chews with the "toothpaste" already in the middle. No more struggling to get the gel into the chew, and hopefully a more ethical company. Plus, the ARK chews are half the price! I got 20 chews for $13. Even though I ordered the Small Breed option, they're easily big enough to cut in half, giving me 40 chews. Contrast that with the Bark Bright product where you get 30 chews for $26.My only issue is that nowhere in the product description on Amazon does it say how many chews are in each bag. It just says, for example, "12 Ounce (Pack of 1)." I knew there couldn't be just one chew per package, so I finally bit the bullet and ordered just to see. I was pleased with the amount of chews per 12 oz package, but they really should include this information in the product description!

I have a 7 lb Deer Head Chi, her teeth are tiny tiny tiny. These are soooo hard! No seriiusly, I got pliers and had to squeeze (with some force, I might add) and break these up into crumbs.Too, there is way too much red food coloring, that is completely unnecessary and not good for pet health. When she would go potty after eating these her poop would have red streaks, it freaked me out at first. Then we determined it was these treats.They might be tasty - she ate them and seemed to enjoy them. They might help with plaque, but not as likely if I had to break them into crumbs.

We buy these frequently as our dachshund enjoys these bones and helps with her dental care and is a good alternative for brushing her teeth since she refuses brushing. They are soft enough but not too soft, enough for chewing.

Our doggo likes the tastes of these. She is gluten and dairy free too and these work for her unlike some others. They seem to keep her teeth cleaner. We were noticing more plaque several months back and decided to give these a whirl and they appear to be doing the trick to keep our dog’s teeth healthy.

My dog loves it as a treat and her teeth are cleaner after a few weeks of use, worth the price.
