Just because your dog is putting on some extra weight doesn't mean you can't continue giving Greenies! Greenies Lite Dental Chews help clean teeth and freshen breath without adding to your dog's padding. Not only do Greenies Lite support weight management, but they're also full of nutritive benefits. They are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that promote a healthy immune system, and they contain fiber that aids in digestion. Better yet, they still have the great taste that dogs adore.
The perfect combination of a mouth-friendly design and a chewy texture allows Greenies Lite to clean teeth down to the gum line, which helps control plaque and tartar that can lead to gum disease. Greenies Lite are made in the USA.
For: Dogs who are over 6 months of age and weigh at least 5 pounds.

How it works:
As your dog bites into and chews Greenies Lite, the special shape and texture of the treat works a lot like a toothbrush, wrapping around the teeth down to the gum line, controlling new and reducing existing plaque and tartar build up. This helps promote good dental hygiene and keeps your dog’s breath fresh.
Cautions:
As with any edible product, it’s important to monitor your pet while feeding a treat. If your dog gulps rather than chews any item, it can be harmful or even fatal, so make sure your dog chews Greenies Lite completely before swallowing.

Love that greenies come in lite.
I have two shepherd mixes that we adopted. One is a shepard/golden retriever mix and a bit over weight. The second dog is a shepard aussie mix. They are truly brother and sister even though in reality,they are not. Every morning at the exact time,both come to wake me up and then they run to the closet where
their greenies are kept and wait for me to give them their glucosamine and a greenie.If I fall back to sleep,they come back and wake me up again.I will always have dogs in my life-and I will always get rescued dogs.

Greenies are great!!
With a dog who lives for "treats," she adores
greenies. Our Vet has her on a fish oil per day drizzled on her food and it creates fish breath. That's the only reason for my 3 rating on effectiveness!

She loves it!
My dog loves this! She goes "crazy" when I ask her if she wants a "Greenie".
I buy this for her all the time, but you should only give your dog one a day.

Thank you for your question Kai, GREENIES® Dental Chews help control plaque and tartar buildup by mechanical abrasion. As a dog chews the treat, its chewy texture allows the teeth to sink in for maximum tooth contact causing a mechanical scraping and scrubbing of the tooth surface. GREENIES® Dental Chews do not use chemicals to reduce plaque and tartar like many other products. Current GREENIES® product formulations have been proven to reduce plaque and tartar buildup better than ever. Additionally, GREENIES® are proven to freshen breath and maintain healthier gums.
Thank you for your question doglover, I would suggest Greenies Lite Petite 27oz (45 Treats) #11201, this product is made for dogs between 15 to 25 pounds.
