Our dachshund loves these bones...she is an active 10 year old rescue and we try and keep her trim.Our vet was thrilled with her weight loss but cutting out treats was hard on Flora..and although she enjoyed her carrot sticks- these bones really are a treat! We are vegetarians(Flora isn't) so we don't have bones to give her and usually the raw bones we can buy are HUGE.These are just the right size for our 13 lb doxie and she carries them around with her for at least a week!And it means alot to us that they are free range....
