I almost got a couple of those the other day, in fact, had it in my cart, but I wasn't really sure if it was all edible or what and what I really wanted was something that they could chew but would also freshen their breath. So I put them back. The outer portion of it was colored (like a dark purple and there was a yellow one and maybe a green one) and the rest looked like a dark brown inner.
Do they really last a long time? I am trying to find something that Max and Madison will chew on while we're in the car! I got them some things called Twistix (they're totally edible, all natural, and have mint in them to freshen breath). They're hard hard hard....and I gave one (these were pretty big actually for small dogs, but I was thinking "oh well....it will take them FOREVER to chew it up anyway"....WRONG!!! In less than 10 minutes BOTH dogs surfaced from whatever cover they could find to hide from each other so they couldn't snatch it from the other one, with not even a trace of the chew:eek:. I was POSITIVE that they'd just left it lying somewhere and came out to look for something else.....NOPE.....they were totally DEVOURED. I was SHOCKED just b/c I thought they were virtually indestructible, but also b/c I'd emailed the company to find out the caloric value of them and EACH one was something like 75.48 calories:eek: That's enough calories for ME for a snack! Luckily, not a lot of fat in them (most of the calories are from rice)but STILL.....actually that was another reason I didn't get the Hartz chew...no calorie count on it. But I can always call the company up to find out.
If these are the same ones I saw, I'm going to have to get a couple for the car trip this week! If only I could find something to keep them occupied for 10 hrs, LOL:rolleyes: |
