If Your Dog's Breath Smells Awful, Read This Before Buying Another Dental Stick

You know the feeling. Your dog jumps up for a cuddle and suddenly you're wondering if something died in their mouth.


Most owners assume bad breath is just part of owning a dog. It isn't.

The Smell Isn't Usually The Problem

Bad breath is often a symptom of what's happening on the teeth.


Every day, bacteria build up on the surface of your dog's teeth.


If it isn't regularly removed, that build-up can eventually contribute to plaque, tartar and unpleasant breath.


Masking the smell doesn't solve the reason it's there.

So What Actually Helps?

One word. Chewing.


When dogs chew on something firm and tough, it creates friction against the surface of their teeth.


The longer they chew, the more that natural cleaning action can take place.

That's Why More Owners Are Looking Beyond Dental Sticks

Many dental sticks disappear in under a minute. Your dog barely has time to enjoy it before it's gone. 


Natural chews like Beef Tendons are different. They're naturally tough. They're made to be worked on. And because dogs spend longer chewing them, owners are increasingly choosing them as part of their dog's regular dental routine.

Tooth scraping goodness

"These beef tendons are a fantastic chew. They help scrape my dog's teeth, keeping them clean while she has a fun time crunching."

Great baby sitters

"We give her these when she needs to stay home alone... no separation anxiety with these baby sitters! One will last her more than a week and she chews it every day! She often walks around the house with them in her mouth and had learned how to hold them with her paws. They are great because they don't have any strong smell too!"

Easier Than You Think

No freezer. No preparation required. No mess.


Just keep a bag in the pantry and give your dog a beef tendon chew three times each week or in between brushes.


The simplest habits has to be the easiest to stick with.
