Broke 2 of my dog's molars - Veterinarians Do Not Recommend!
As I'm writing this review, I am sitting in my vet's office waiting on my dog to come back from the back where they have taken him for pre-op bloodwork...because he fractured two of his molars chewing on these "treats". That's right - 2 slab fractures on 2 molars. For reference, my dog is a healthy lab mix. I'll be out roughly $1,500 due to these things. I first noticed that there may be something wrong when I saw a tinge of blood on one of these chews last night. I thought to examine my dog's mouth and that is when I noticed the two fractured teeth and brought him to the vet for the first available appointment this morning. I am beyond angry. FYI - the veterinary community advises against these due to their hardness and tendency to break teeth. As a responsible dog owner, I thought to share this as I would hate for anyone else to go through what I'm going through - both financially and in terms of the crappiness of having to put a totally healthy dog under general anesthesia to have teeth extracted due to these horrible chews. What is most concerning to me is that so many dogs may break teeth on these without their owners even noticing. Dogs sometimes don't show symptoms of dental pain until an infection has spread. If your dog has chewed on these, please take the time to examine his/her mouth.
