Our most common dental product we use and sell is Hills T/D. This comes in feline, small k9, and large k9 bags. We also offer samples for your pet to make sure they will eat them and chew them. We recommend giving 4-5 treats on their food daily. This product is actually a food you can feed, but we recommend giving as a treat. This 5lb bag will be most cost effective vs other products we carry.
