Duckandswing Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 I've used it. Seems to maintain their teeth a little better. I tend to scrape my dogs teeth every couple of weeks. Don't bother brushing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sat Rat Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Yes on our 2nd pot now,I must say that I am very impressed with the results.Give it 3/4 weeks then either a pet toothbrush or a raw bone treat and the plauqe is rubbed off. Just remember that it is not an instant fix product it takes a bit of time to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eieieio Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 I just give a raw meaty bone every 3 days. Keeps the teeth white, nothing else needed. Chicken carcass, lamb neck, turkey neck or a lump of tripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy.plinker Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 I just give a raw meaty bone every 3 days. Keeps the teeth white, nothing else needed. Chicken carcass, lamb neck, turkey neck or a lump of tripe. 'Chicken carcass', are they ok for dogs with all the small bones in them,I thought it was a no no but maybe it's a myth.My mother knew a dog that died this way but that's the only one I heard of.

Smiler23 Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 I feed mine on raw feed only, he gets meaty bones or a chicken carcass every morning,, iv never had any problems with bones and iv been feeding this diet for over 10 years now, it's cooked bones you need to be avoiding.

eieieio Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Like Smiler says, provided that they are raw you will be fine as they are soft and covered with bits of meat. Cooked bones should never be given as they may splinter but even then I suspect that I suspect that if you asked a vet they would tell you that most internal blockages needing veterinary treatment are caused by things like socks, toys or other in-edible items.

malmick Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Well, never had a dog before but got one from bigbird on here. Great all round condition but some plaque, particularly on upper rear molars. Got a lamb neck from my butcher today, got the lions share of the meat off it to go into a slow casserole and then gave the bones to pooch. He took about 40 minutes to gnaw his way through the lot. All of his teeth are pearly white now, including the upper molars. I honestly thought it would take repeated feeding of bones to get his teeth to the point they are at now. You guys give good advice. Thanks to eieieio for the heads up on lamb neck. Cheers, Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
