VOHC-accepted for reducing tartar and plaque. Unique chewy texture reaches below the gumline. Multiple size options for dogs 5โ130 lbs.
Greenies are the category benchmark for a reason: VOHC accepted for both plaque and tartar reduction, widely available, and consistently eaten by dogs who refuse other dental products. The texture is designed to flex rather than shatter โ safe for regular use. At $24 for 36 regular-size chews, the daily cost is manageable. The ingredient list is relatively clean with wheat as the primary carbohydrate; there's a grain-free version for dogs with wheat sensitivities. Palate acceptance is the highest of any option here โ dogs who won't eat other dental chews usually eat Greenies.
