Hill's Science Diet Adult Oral Care Dry Dog Food - 30-Pound Bag

As a dog owner, I try to do the best for my dog. My mother is a veterinarian technician and strongly recommend that I take good care of my dog's teeth. Based on her job, she had plenty of stories about dogs with terrible teeth and told me that I should either feed my dog an oral care food or brush her (my dog's) teeth daily. Knowing that I wouldn't want to brush my teeth and that my dog wasn't going to like it, I opted for the oral care science diet. My mother recommends the Hills Prescription Diet TD (prescription oral care), but said that the oral care is also acceptable since it is available without a prescription. I have been feeding this to my dog for 3 years (since she was a puppy) and her teeth are very clean and white. I rest happily knowing that I won't be dealing with a vet recommending that I pay a huge amount of money to rip out teeth or put my dog under to get a teeth cleaning (these procedures can run into the thousands of dollars in some severe cases).

So we love this product. We mix is about 1/3 of this with his other dog food (Blue Buffalo). Our dog builds up a lot of tarter on his teeth, and this really helps clean his teeth in addition to brushing and greenies. As this product is a bit pricey we mix it in with 2/3 other dog food (which is also pricey lol). I think its works great on its own or as a mix. The dog really looks for the bigger bites and I think encourages him to eat more. He is not picky but really doesn't eat a lot. I order online and have gotten free shipping sometimes.

I bought this for my two four year old dogs (a miniature poodle and a Lhasa Apso) when I discovered their gums were inflammed and had the beginnings of gum disease. At first I was alarmed when I got the bag because the food chucks are rather large for my small dogs, however I remembered it is probably them chewing on it that will remove the tartar. Sure enough they love these mini golf ball size food.

It helps their gum problems and it's cute to see them grab one out of the dish and run into the living room with it like they have a prize. I have a two sided bowl and put this in one side and the mini food bits in the other and they prefer this food.

I still offer them both.

I highly recommend,
