Chloe will not eat hers. She turns her nose up at them. She loves Texas toothpicks. They smell a little but are good for cleaning her teeth.

We have never tried the greenie chew sticks and actually the next time we went to go get coco groomed I was going to pick up some, maybe not anymore she does like things from the greenies brand though. Like the pill pockets, those are a favorite at our house

Kaji loves them. I think they don't smell, at least not as bad as bully sticks. I'm sensitive to smells, and these don't bother me. However, they do not replace a good teeth brushing. Life just isn't that easy, but I wish it was.

These Greenies and other alike dog treats have killed many dogs.... just google it ! Its the reason I never give my dog greenies or something else alike.

I agree that one must be cautious when giving their babies a greenie, but I expand that logic to everything I give him. A greenie, a wishbone, a flossie, whatever it is, I'm with him and I make sure I can watch him. The only complaint I've seen with greenies is that a dog can choke on them. Well, that can happen with a flossie, wishbone, or a bully when it gets too small. I let Kaji take bites of his greenie since it is more flexible than a bully. He happily chews every bite down and is ready to do another trick so he can have another bite. This method has worked for me so far and he really enjoys it. Now it's grandpa that gives him the greenies at night time so they can bond too.

There was actually some instances of greenies not digesting properly and causing intestinal blockages in dogs; it wasn't just a choking hazard. They supposedly reformulated their product, so that it would properly breakdown, but I just personally never trusted them after that.

Agree 100%

Wow I didn't know that. I give my dog a greenie every evening. He loves them. The smell doesn't bother us. I'm glad they reformulated their product, had I known about it I never would have started giving him greenies!!
