My eleven year old Corgi needs to switch over to biscuits that are a bit softer and less crunchy to preserve her aging teeth. Are these soft enough?

The are very soft and our Golden absolutely loves them - both the chicken and the beef flavor. Be sure to keep the lid on tight as the will harden slightly with time. I would think, even with time, they would still be soft enough for aging teeth. Hope this helps!!!

They are soft, but you have to be careful to watch the expiration date on the packaging. If it is not several months out then they can become dry. I stopped buying them online first because of the price change (but has since gone back down), but also it's hit and miss with the softness. I only buy in the store where I can see the expiration date and look at the color of the treats. The darker the softer.

Sorry I can't help you since I discarded the original bag after cutting the chews into smaller pieces for my little dog. All I know if my dog loves them and they are recommended by the Veterinary Oral health Council.

I've noticed that they are firmer, yes, but my dog has no trouble chewing them up. Like the one previous answer, we too put just a small amount in a jar with a lid and open the bag only when the jar is empty. I have noticed that the treats will dry out if left open to the air for awhile. Because of my dog's food allergies, they are the only treat he can digest on the market right now so as long as he eats them, I have no complaints. He loves them.

I would say Yes. My grown dog loves them too. But my neighbor just got a smaller dog (pup) and I actually gave them a bag, because I noticed that while I was holding it, he was constantly trying to chew on my hand with those little sharp teeth, so I thought a bag of those would be perfect for the puppy to chew on and not choke. But, as I have had many puppies and dogs, I always watch them when they are chewing on onesomething until they are finished. I never leave a pet alone with a chew bone.

I would have to say yes. I have a ten year old Maltese who has eating these since she could chew. She has a few every day as a snack. In fact, she refuses to eat any other treat. My vet sats she is the healthiest maltese she ever seen, and when asked her age, no one believes she is 10.

Our older dog who has lost most of his teeth still trys to gum them so to speak but I would get something a little softer since they are hard!

They are very moist and should not crumble but they are very small treats to begin with so you shouldn't need to break them. I recommend them highly, my 11 month old Irish Setter will do anything you ask for them!

Yes they are soft. We have 2 dogs that much prefer the softer treats opposed to the milk bone type treats. We have been using them for at least 5 years. Hope that helped. Randy L.

They aren't soft but not extremely hard either. Sometimes I split them in half when giving multiple treats and they break easily so it could be something you could crumble up for your puppy. I hope that helps.

My 11-year old lab mix thinks the hard pills are treats--I call her for a "treat," put her on a sit and throw one up in front of her and she catches it in the air and eats it, looking for more after finishing. She will also eat it when I just put it in the bowl with her dry food. My 14-year old papillon, who has bad teeth and weighs only 8 pounds, will eat a half pill only when we put peanut butter on it. I have never tried the soft ones, but perhaps my little pap would prefer those.

They are hard. A little harder than a dentistick. My dogs loves them. But they are only 8 & 4

Probably, they are soft. We just throw it for our dog and put it up when we're not using it. It is NOT a chew toy.

Yep, for my dog they last at least twice as long as a Greenie. Not near as long as a rawhide.

they are crunchy, but very tender so that they crunch/break up very easily. My dogs love them, even the puppy!

They should be soft...good luck...I bought 3 bags and gave them to all my dogs and they did not work.

If the teeth were pulled recently, I would say "no" for sure. If it has been awhile, these are pliable compared to others we have tried with our senior dogs so your dog might do fine. I would, as someone else suggested, buy one of the smaller packs to start with since some dogs are picky (mine) and won't chew just anything.

They are hard on the outside but get soft enough to chew a little. These are the big jawbreaker size...not the little ones that come in a box.
