Parents and their pets everywhere love our tried-and-true brilliant formulas. Our 4-in-1 Brushless Toothpaste dental dog chews do more than freshen breath (which they definitely do). They have a unique toothpaste center, surrounded by a harder outside layer to abrasively clean teeth and mechanically help reduce plaque and tartar buildup. Not to mention, they are packed with wholesome, human grade ingredients that are low calorie and easy to digest. Treat your teeth twice a day, just like your human brushes their teeth!
Complete your pup’s dental regimen with our Plaque Zapper and Joint Rescue for optimal dental care.

My local dog bakery owner told me the trick for these to last longer and for the enzyme to stick to my dog’s teeth is to freeze them! Works great and it’s the only treat my dog happily hops back in the pen for.

My dogs go nuts for these. After they eat we hang out a bit then they go do their business. When we come in I ask them if they want their toothbrushes and they both start jumping around all excited. And after 1 bag I noticed a difference in their teeth and breath. Thank you for a good, truthful product.

I’m a very proud Shiba Inu Daddy of 9 years, and these dental chews are the only item on her vast menu that she eats every day. Matter of fact, it’s the only thing she has eaten and enjoyed since her puppy days. She always knows what’s for dessert after dinner, Ark Naturals dental chews. If they can satisfy a Shiba Inu’s finigy appetite and personality, and be healthy for your family member…… you should have these dental chews on your shopping list.

This is the only brushless treat my mostly toothless wonder can enjoy. The few teeth she has left are pretty stinky when I don’t use them. On top of that, she has a very sensitive stomach and many times I’ve ended up at the ER because the treat has ripped thru her. Not this company. Every item she tries is easy to eat and digest.
Thanks Ark Naturals!!!!

I have a 6 year old rescue who already had bad breath when I got him. He is terrified of the vet so I started using these chews a year ago to see if they would work on the plaque. It’s a slow process, but he is showing improvement. Anything that slows down him having a dental, is a winner for me. He loves the chews and his breath has been improving. At a recent vet visit, she said his teeth had improved from a year ago. Two thumbs up.

My little 20 pound terrier loves these. We give him one every couple of days and they seem to help with slightly freshening his breath – especially after he chews a rawhide or something similar for 20 minutes or so. We use them as a very special treat and he can’t wait to get one. My wife and I are not sure how they freshen his breath as they do not smell minty or “fresh” out of the package – but they do help, so it is a bit of a mystery!
It takes about 20-35 seconds for my terrier to chew one up and eat it from beginning to end so they work much better than a crunchy minty treat – but they will not keep him busy like some rawhide type of chewy teeth cleaning treats – but I believe they leave him fresher and cleaner than the more durable ones.
I give them a solid 4 stars and would recommend them.

My old, 30 lb. dog loves these! He has not had any stomach upset with the medium dog treat given to him once per day. It takes him a little while to get into the center so it does help clean his teeth. His breath is much fresher than before. This combined with crunchy dog food has helped his teeth greatly.

My dog loves these. She begs all day for them and has taken up napping next to the treat container. Her breath no longer smells like a dead squirrel which is extra nice.

All 3 of my dogs get so excited every time I bring these out. They seem to love the flavor and shape of these so much, and I love that they can enjoy a treat entirely meant to keep their teeth clean and healthy! These have been my go-to dental products for them for about a year now and I definitely won’t be changing that up any time soon!

My dog seems to like the taste though Im not fond of the smell,since it is an all natural product the smell is understandable. The price is average for a good dental chew & Im hoping this product is as good for my dog as claimed. Though I dont know how to assess the products ability to actually clean my dogs teeth & gums removing plaque & tartar.

At one year old, I was having trouble keeping my puppy’s teeth clean. After two weeks of using these brushless toothpaste treats, a perfect stranger commented on how white my dogs teeth were and how fresh his breath was. Not only do I have this product on a subscription service now, but I also have one for my daughter’s dog. Given the cost of teeth cleaning at a vet, this product is well worth the money.

My 10 year old Sheltie Maggie loves these. They have worked very well after the first one to remove tartar buildup and after 5 of them her teeth are much better & so is her breath. Maggie has sensitive skin and digestion and these have been fine for her, no problems at all.

My dogs should really be writing this review as they go crazy for it. This is particularly interesting since one of them usually doesn’t go near anything that isn’t meat! It’s now part of our nightly routine and they RACE back from the last potty walk of the day salivating for their nightly dental treat. I get the medium size ones delivered monthly because my dogs are big enough for 2 so I give them one in the morning as well. Additionally, I dog-sit and I have yet to have a “visiting pup” not go crazy for this as well. Love that it seems to have natural ingredients and I feels pretty safe giving it to our visiting dogs too. I’ve recommended it to several friends who have also started buying it. Also if you have dogs with teeth issues, it’s nice to be able to cut these into smaller pieces so they can break it down easier.

So I used these before & my dogs like them. I freeze them to make them last alittle longer. Seem to help along with brushing a few times a week. Decided to tried the value size. The ones from the value box are different. Slightly shorter & more squished. Not sure if I got an off box or they sell the rejects in the value size. If they don’t work as well I’ll update.

I buy these all the time for my English Bulldog. They work great with freshening his breath, and he absolutely loves them. I give him one every day after his evening meal.
I have ordered these multiple times. At first I was buying one bag at a time, but they are somewhat pricey so I figured it was smart to buy three bags at a time and get the lower price.
Everything seemed fine, but when I picked one up to give to my dog, it just felt slightly off… so I compared one to my last bag and the size is just a little bit smaller, as is the width.
It’s not a big deal, but I feel a little cheated. I’m not sure if the company is now making these smaller (and charging the same price) or if I somehow got a bad batch?
I will compare again when I get my next order.

My dog had some plaque building up and she was scratching her mouth. So we tried various ways but she really hates anything other than edible items near her mouth so brushing her teeth was going to be a nightmare.
I found these and ordered them asap seeing good reviews.
First, my dog loves them. I haven’t tried them so I can’t really say they taste good but seeing her gobble it up, it must be.
Second, it works well.
The outer shell of the treat is really hard so it makes my dog’s teeth sink into the whole treat. The teeth sink into the toothpaste in the center and as she chews, the abrasive shell scrubs them clean!
It’s been a few weeks now and she’s stopped scratching her mouth at all!

My senior dog loves these! He reminds me to give him one every night before bed. It’s a ritual he looks forward to.
They have improved his breath drastically and his teeth do look a bit better. The smell is pleasant, there’s no mess, and the quality control is there.
Unfortunately, these just went up in price, within the last month and a half, from $12 to $19. What the heck?!

Received these dental chews last night and gave one to the pupper. I noticed they were pretty dense when I gave it to her and she laid down to chew it as if it were a bone. I picked the bag up to read the instructions, in case there was something I missed. The bag was open at the bottom, but luckily nothing spilled out.
The bag was not damaged from shipping, it just wasn’t sealed properly in manufacturing. Other than being rock hard she seemed to like the treat and I’d like to update my review after getting a replacement product. Picture of my little Eeyore for scale.
Update: Received replacement bag from Amazon free of charge. Rogue has been enjoying these chews for a few weeks now. I’ve noticed a mild improvement in her breath odor and no upset stomachs after eating the chews. I’ll rate this product satisfactory and I recommend giving them a try.
