A former vet tech of many years, we recommended CET chews to our clients. Back then, they didn't contain chlorhexiderm, but were quite effective as a dentrifice for dogs. With the added chlorhexiderm, they've only improved! My dogs find them just as palatable, but with the added benefit of anti-microbial properties most chews don't contain, it's something I can feel good about giving them.

My dogs really enjoy these treats. I don't give them daily, just a few times a week. I strongly suggest pet owners be present when pets are using a chew. These should not be used a pacifier when you are away. Supervision is always a good idea as you never know if choking could occur.

My Vet recommended these for my dogs. They completely remove the plack from the dogs teath and eliminated very expensive cleaning of the dogs teath. It also eliminates putting the dog to sleep while cleaning the teath. I take my dogs in about once a year and my vet looks at the teath and just says they look great - no cleaning required. Before I found these, the dogs teath had to be cleaned about every 2 years. Plus my dogs love the flavor of these.

POISON "Chlorhexidine" POISON
We have two beautiful Saint Bernards. After using these for some time, it began to be a routine that they would BOTH have to go outside to vomit after their supposed morning treat and dental care. We investigated this chemical that the package warns you about, "Chlorhexidine" and stopped using the ignorantly designed dog hating treat. No more sick dogs.
If anyone likes their Dog at all, they will READ the package. Notice first the ingredient, "Chlorhexidine" then the warnings.
There's good vets who don't sell these, and BAD vets who like the profits.
Of course, Pharma and all their "vet/doctor" salesmen will say this product has been tested, used for years, found to be safe in thus and thus quantities, and on and on.
Well, the chemical Chlorhexidine is used to KILL bacteria. GOOD AND BAD!
It's used pre-surgically, washing the body and prescription only mouthwashes.
Your dog, like all living beings has a body especially a digestive tract, FULL of very much needed bacterium.
The company knows this, and to protect themselves even warns that "serious" problems may occur, especially if your dog "licks" the surface first? Wow, and how is a dog supposed to NOT lick a dog chew he's sucking on for hours and yet consume it?
Do some research on what this stuff WILL do to your dog people. Unless your trying to euthanize your dog with a long, painful, and; "conveniently- racking up a massive vet bill to diagnose" and non treatable death sentence, STOP FEEDING THEM THIS POISON. And YES, they are the same "intellectual scientists" who've managed to put half our nation on "safe for you" psychotropic drugs.
Ironically, "prolonged use of this poison will cause tooth discoloration," leading to possible other side effects of tooth decay."
Japan stopped using "Chlorhexidine" on catheters and other medical devices in 97' after many became sick and one died.
Causes numerous (still discovering more) problems with cats. Deafness, respiratory problems, in 96 in Mitchell South Dakota they discovered it was the cause of a plethora of severe issues with cats and had to stop using it. The believe it was from the cats "grooming" it off their coats after surgery. Too many problems to report here, do your dog a favor and do your own. And don't look get your information from the doggy sites. Look up the problems with the chemical. Is it like declawing your animal? "And they tell you it doesn't hurt them when they rip the dew claws out at the puppy age?" Yeah, I'd like to declaw a few vets (Pharma salesmen) and have them give me a report?
Most importantly, you do not want to kill ANY bacteria in your dogs system. PERIOD, that's why they've generally for so long, been so healthy, let's not screw that up as we have our own body's with infections causing Irritable bowel diseases etc.

I have been using C.E.T. HEXtra dog chews for my dogs for several years -- he now has great teeth, before he was showing tartar build-up even though he was quite young. Amazon has the best price and delivery on this hard-to-find item.

My dogs love these and they are great for the teeth and breath! However, they have an odd smell when the dogs are working on them -- kind of like a not-so-great-smelling beef stock. Kind of icky. So having this scent in my living room for the period of time it takes them to chew these is rather off-putting and I am looking for another chew for this reason. If the dogs had a doghouse or were going to chew them outside, it would be five stars from me, all the way!

My Vet recommended these to help keep plaque off my 12 year old dog's teeth. Beside helping his teeth, it keeps him busy for hours. It was helpful to read other reviews that mention not to leave your dog home alone while chewing on these in the rare instance it may cause a choking problem.Amazon's price was much better than the Vet's!

We have a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel and the size for her is just perfect. I really like the results on the teeth.

These tasty little treats are excellent for puppies. They are easy to chew and great for their fragile teeth. They are NOT messy and dogs usually take a whole day to chew one.

I first bought a 15 pc. pack at my Vet. He said that this was great for small dogs and puppies. My puppie loved them. But I had to travel quite a distance to my Vet. So I scanned Amazon to see if I could get them anywhere else. Luckily, Amazon had it listed with a double pack (30).

I highly recommend this product, especially since it it Vet recommended and my picky dog loves them.

I had high hopes for this product. Unfortunately, my dog doesn't like the smell. He refuses to chew it. In fact he rubbed his nose raw trying to bury it in the carpet. My advice is to buy one bag at first, as a test, in stead of the three I did.

These chews come in a wide range of sizes and thicknesses which means some chews will be easier to chew than some of the others. I have a German Shepard/ Lab mix and she is now almost 4 and is a really strong chewer. I really wanted this product to work because keeping my dogs teeth healthy and clean will help her living longer. My dog choked on this so badly that she couldn't clear her own throat and luckily I was watching her to notice that she needed help. I reached into her throat and pulled it out. Stupidly, I thought this would be a one time deal so I gave her more of these and just a few chews later she ripped off another large chunk and choked on that again.Since it was so far down her throat I could only shove the piece down and it cleared her throat. She laid in my lap for 30 minutes after that incident. I threw the bag away and wrote a review and there were many other similar events like mine.

Please be cautious and watch your dog if you think these work for you. All it takes is one treat to choke on to create irreversible damages. The manufacturer has very minimal consequences if your dog dies because of their C.E.T. chews.

I have purchased the other types of these exact chews, but this company creates different listings for the same exact product because the other listings have poor reviews. Also, if you look at most of the reviewers who give this product 5 stars only have 1-5 reviews...that makes me suspicious of those reviewers as it seems they are some how motivated to give this product a 5 star review. Most of those 5 stars reviews are not even confirmed as actually purchasing this product.
