I like this product because my dog loves it. It's like a treat. And, she does seem to be looking a little slimmer after about a month on the Slim Downs plus regulated diet. We have made a few changes to her diet/routine, including the Slim Downs, so it's hard to know if the Slim Downs are the thing making the biggest difference, but I'm going to continue using them for sure! Just be certain to close the bag tightly, otherwise they start to dry out & harden very quickly.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My aunt has nine dogs on her hilltop property, some from friends, some adopted from pounds, and a few strays. The dogs are have voracious appetites and will eat anything. Two dogs are inactive and overweight so I decided to let the hefty dogs try these Pet Naturals K9 Slim Down Chicken Liver Flavored Chews.

Likes:

*Easy to open and resealable bags.

*We followed the instructions of feeding the two hefty dogs 2 chews each 10 minutes before each meal. The 60 dog chews per bag equals a 15 day supply for two 51-100lbs dogs.

*The dogs gobbled up these chews without hesitation.

*After 15 days, we did notice some appetite suppression with the pre-meal dog chews; the two hefty dogs ate less of their daily dried dog food.

Concerns:

*Although the brand is "Pet Naturals", these weight loss chews contain a wide variety of artificial ingredients such as "proprietary blend" (maltodextrin, sodium alginate, and calcium sulfate), silicon dioxide, etc.

*Per manufacturer: NOT recommended for pregnant animals or animals intended for breeding.

Overall:

Consult with your vet first before attempting to put your dogs on a weight loss program with these Slim Down Dog Chews.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have been using these for about 3 weeks now on two of my dogs and it does seem to be working. They both like the chews and the weight seems to be slipping off slowly. I will update my review as I go further through the bag.

Update: After another month on these I can say these certainly seem to be working for both of my dogs. One (on whom I have not made any feeding/exercise changes) has lost just under a pound (this is on a small ~11lb dog) and the other who has also been walking has lost over 1 1/2 pounds (this on a ~22lb dog.) Very happy with these so far.

Honest reviews on Pet Naturals of Vermont K9 Slim Down Bone Shaped Chews, 60-Count

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I guess dogs are more like us than I realized. Just as there is no "magic pill" for us to take to shed unwanted pounds, the same is true for Fido as well.

My little dog tried these, and while she LOVED the taste, they did not help whittle her waist one little bit. She has been eating diet small breed kibble and diet canned food for as long as we've had her. She also goes for a long walk almost every day. But still, she has a tendency to put on a few pounds whenever I have surgery and her walks get cut short. I thought these might help keep her weight in check during my most recent surgery, or at least help keep her appetite in check (she's always "jonesing" for treats). They did nothing, nothing at all.

So, if you want to keep Fido fit and trim save your money and grab a leash instead.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program These cute little bone shaped chews come in a 60 count bag. The total bag contains 10.58 ounces and these are pretty small in size even for a small dog. Our Chihuahua eats them and hardly even chews them at all. So I don't think they would do much for a much larger dog. They aren't real hard chews at all. They are more like a treat than a chew. They are chicken liver flavored which I don't really care for the smell of but my dog won't turn them down. I wouldn't say she is jumping with joy over them but she will always eat them. Our Chihuahua is several pounds overweight and I know it's not healthy for her. The problem is that she likes table scraps a little too much. We also have another Chihuahua that needs to put some weight on and we feed her a lot of table scraps. We find it difficult to feed one and not the other. These chews are supposed to block her body from burning carbs for energy. Instead is should make her body burn fat for energy and lose weight. We only feed her one of these a day so it may take a while to show results if they actually work. These chews are on the pricey side but one bag will last us over two months. So if it truly works then it would be worth it.
