No, it's all dry kibble. I've been giving him Greenies and now these Regimen chews since work started carrying them. What do you use? I used to give my old dog Meisha pig ears and they did wonders (for her anyway) on keeping her teeth looking good. Our vet was after us to get them cleaned, I started giving her pig ears every couple of weeks and on her next checkup he asked us when he had gotten her dental done.

I've been meaning to get down to the butcher's and picking up some bones...

Sunny the australian shepherd and Daisy the basset hound, Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lovers Soul, raw marrow bones, leftover meat, whatever they can sneak from/beg away from the boys

Jack is a Golden Retriever and he eats Iams. Sometimes he gets pizza crusts and popcorn when he looks especially starving and pathetic. LOL I know it's just an act.

You're right, Dober! [smacks forehead with heel of hand] They all stick "Natural" in for the first word - especially the ones that aren't and it just gets too, too redundant and confusing sometimes. Maybe the good ones should just stop using the word "natural" in the name as we know the fake ones won't . . .
