PetLab Co. ProBright Dental Powder - Dog Breath Freshener - Teeth Cleaning Made Easy – Targets Tartar & Bad Breath - Formulated for Small Dogs

PROS:* Works. Full stop.CONS:* Price. Can be a bit pricey for the dosing instructions.Use:My dogs have had their teeth cleaned on the regular for years. At least once a year, but usually twice. Its expensive if you don't have a "health plan" (thankfully I do).But my doggies are getting old and one of them is now considered at risk of not waking up from the anesthesia required to clean their teeth.Even with regular cleaning, my doggies breath would become atrociously rancid to the point that directional breathing toward me would induce a vomiting reflex. I didn't of course, but it was that gnarly.We tried water additives. Various and myriad chew toys. Along with the cleanings, they did help and sometimes for stretches of time. But then it would always return. We do try and brush our dogs teeth, but it really seems stressful for them so we don't do it often especially on the lil old lady.Then we saw this product advertised everywhere. Read the ingredient list which seemed innocuous enough and decided to give it a go.Results?- Week 1 - a noticeable improvement. Walking around their breath wafts of death were less imminent death.- Week 2 - they could give me kisses or sleep/sit near by (within inches vs meters) and I couldn't smell but trace hints of death.- Week 3 - we did the lip lift to check the gums and we noticed less irritation and the tartar build up, though present, was clearly diminished.- Week 4 and beyond - we let out lil old lady sleep with us again, and the corgi well we can play fetch with him without worry of keeling over due to his bad breath. Though both never had difficulty with bowel movements, I can see a noticeable difference in color, size, and texture. For the lil old schnauzer, it's almost night and day: from dispersed deer pellet pooping pattern to a few contiguous logs. They both seem happier and healthier than they've been in a while - we had almost forgotten this facet of their personalities.Be a skeptic, it's okay. Buy the smallest one and try it out for two weeks, at a minimum. I would recommend this to anyone who has similar problems with their doggie breath (or other symptoms this product may improve).

This product really works!! Our dog's breath was so bad that I could tell if one of them was laying or sitting near me be just from their breathing. I would smell something bad and then turn around and there they were looking at me. It was like a little doggie alarm. But not very pleasant. We just paid hundreds of dollars to have their teeth cleaned a couple of months ago. So I found this on Amazon and decided to give it a try. After a couple weeks I hadn't notice any change so I wasn't going to reorder. But, within a couple of days I noticed that they had absolutely no bad breath and their teeth looked much better!! I immediately signed up for the Subscribe and Save subscription to this product. It's a little expensive but it's worth every penny!

Product works fairly well I spent $400 and had my dogs teeth cleaned and use this product every day since then it’s now been three months and the teeth look fairly good except at the gum line on the two front teeth. The dog refuses to let me brush them, but other than that, they look better than they have in the past The main problem I have with this company is they take forever to ship you their product if you need it is at least two weeks before you get it. I can’t understand why a company would be that slow in sending such a small item out.

I had high hopes for this product. I used half a scoop/day for 3 days and stopped using the product after the 3rd day. That night, my doggo, 14 years, was up all night for 2 nights with severe diarrhea and vomiting. She was whining all night and pacing between the bedroom and living room and had blood in her stool. PetLab Co powder was the only change to her diet. On day 3 and 4, after discontinuing use of this product, she still has loose stools. I have to have my carpets cleaned now and with her continued loose stools, I have to constantly clean the stool out of her hair (mini Australian Shepherd, so lots of hair) and I keep finding streaks on my furniture, along the side of my furniture, on the carpet, and floor, and anything her hind-end touches on the way to the bathroom for another wash down. I was so paranoid the last 2 nights that I couldn't sleep. Just staying awake in case I have to make another emergency run outside and not able to fal asleep. Overall, she feels better and isn't vomiting now. Stools are still loose, though getting a little better day by day. I'm so exhausted.Oh no, she literally just made a run for the patio with another episode. Literally, whilst writing this review, she ran outside and only made it to the patio. Jesus, when does this end...

I went off of the videos, reviews and ads I was receiving and purchased this thinking everything would be ok. But since giving this to 1 of my dogs for 12 days I’m getting worried. She’s 6 and a half just for a general understanding for energy and health. She’s become extremely lethargic and has been drinking water like there’s no tomorrow and peeing a lot! She’s been sleeping so much more than typical for her and she just isn’t interested in playing much. We went for a 45 minute walk today, came back and within 5 minutes she was asking to go outside again (twice actually!) and peed twice more before passing out on the couch. This just isn’t typical behavior for my dog. At first I was worried about a UTI but upon further research it turns out these are side effects of this powder. We are going to reduce her intake in hopes it keeps her breath fresh without it attacking the other parts of her system but don’t foresee us buying this for her again. It sucks seeing her so tired, I’ve been thinking she was depressed, but I’m assuming it’s this powder just taking its toll on my typically happy playful dog. Not worth it. Give your dog a sample size before going all in to make sure these or other side effects don’t affect your dog.
