I apologize to whomever I offend when I say that I don't buy into the whole greenie movement that's been sweeping the pet industry lately. It's only my opinion, so... I'm not suggesting that dog's don't love these things. They do. I know that. But the idea of buying a big one of these for $5 or so and having it be annihilated within 3 minutes doesn't seem too intelligent. I know they're supposed to help with good dental hygiene, which is neglected by lots of pet owners. But I don't see how something that's in your dog's mouth for all of a moment can help all that much...

These are great for puppies, young ones that have almost no teeth and no jaw power yet. They can suck on it and make tiny scratches with their needle teeth all over it and maybe it'll drift around from being under your kid's bed to the backyard. Maybe I'd buy them for my little dog, if I had one. But I want them to be a pacifier and they just can't live up to my expectations. I guess I'm just a cheap pincher who's looking for the longest way to spend a dollar. Sorry.
