Greenies Large
Greenies For Dogs satisfy your dog's natural
desire to chew. The consistency/ingredients have been shown to help reduce
odors, control dental tartar (calculus), strengthen gums and diminish oral
bacteria.
Some chew products contain other
inert materials which are not digestible. All ingredients in Greenies the
original smart-treat are highly digestible and, except for the palatability
enhancer, are used in human food products.
Greenies prevent buildup of dental
calculus, are exceptionally palatable, highly digestible and improve
digestibility of other foods.
Dental Calculus
A leading dental research group
found that giving dogs only one Greenies daily almost totally prevented dental
calculus accumulation. On a scale of 0 for no calculus accumulation to 45 for
heavy calculus buildup, the dogs given one Greenies daily scored an average of
3.3 compared to 26 when Greenies were not given. Statistically, this is a
highly significant (<0.0001) decrease in calculus accumulation. Greenies dental
attributes were developed primarily as a maintenance program for a dogs' teeth
following cleaning by a veterinarian.
Palatability
A study conducted by a leading
nationally-know, highly respected, independent third-party testing research
kennel, proved that most dogs prefer Greenies. When given a choice, 70% of dogs
in the study preferred Greenies to a leading commercial chew treat. All dogs -
100% - preferred Greenies to a leading rawhide chew treat.
Digestibility
The same nationally-know lab also
found that in addition to Greenies being highly digestible, feeding Greenies
with other foods actually increases digestibility of those foods. Their
research showed a blend of just 10% Greenies and 90% dry food increases protein
digestibility in the food from 78.1% to 85.5% - a 10% increase. Digestibility
of fat, calories, dry matter also increased. This ensures that your pet obtains
maximum nutrition from its diet; in fact, your dog can obtain the same level of
nutrition from less dry dog food when Greenies provided, so we recommend that
you decrease the amount of dog food provided by 5-10%.

Choose the Right Size Greenies
for Your Dog:
Greenies Jumbo for dogs weighing
100 + pounds
Greenies Large for dogs weighing 50 - 100 pounds
Greenies Regular for dogs weighing 20- 50 pounds
Greenies Petite for dogs weighing 10 - 20 pounds
Greenies Feeding Directions:
Greenies are
recommended for dogs over 6 months of age and over 10 pounds Feed the
correct size Greeniesfor your dog's weight 1-2 times daily as a
treat. Greenies are not intended to be complete
and balanced and therefore should not constitute more than 25% of your dog's
diet. A greenish color in the dog's stool is a normal and harmless result of
consuming chlorophyll, a key ingredient and natural breath freshener. As with
any treat, always offer water after feeding.
CAUTION
As with any edible product,
monitor your dog to ensure the treat is adequately chewed.
Gulping any item can be harmful or even fatal to a dog.
