CET HEXtra Premium Chews X-Large (30 chews) are teriffic treats for my dogs, seeing how they refuse to let me brush their teeth! I would have given this a 5 star, BUT when I'm paying for the X-large for my 130lb dog, I expect there to be 30 large chews instead of 10 X-large,2 mediun and 8 small ones. This happened in both bags.

I have a Golden Retreiver, and 2 labs. All big dogs. They love the chews BUT I caution you to PLEASE keep an eye on your dogs while they are chewing them. The chews tend to soften as the dogs chew and chews often stick in the back of the dogs throat and I have to stick my fingers down to remove the last piece of chew. I would never leave my dogs alone while eating any type of rawhide chew. I would definitely reccomend these for your dog. My dogs love their taste and think they're getting a treat when they get these. I also save money by buying the biggest size and cutting them in half.Here's our tale. My dog Babe is 11 yrs old. 3 years ago at her annual check-up the vet reccomended we have her teeth cleaned (this means anesthesia). We were busy so we scheduled her appointment 2 months out. The new dog foods with teeth brushing had just come out in our area so we switched her to one. When we took her in for the teeth cleaning, the vet said she didn't need it. Yeah! Then last year we took our new dog Hercules to the vet and she showed us the CET Hextra chews. Which my dog treated like the best thing he'd ever seen. So I went home and ordered some. Amazon had the best deal I could find by far. 6 months later after daily use of the chews. Babe went in for her annual again and the vet said her teeth looked like those of a 1 yr old dog. They even brought other people in the clinic in to see her teeth. They said whatever we were doing to keep it up.Most recent purchase 02/15/12
I cut these in half to give to my Aussies
These are the sizes that I received today. I judge these on thickness, not on length
13 Very thin, I could cut them in half with regular scissors. I give these to my friend who has a small dog
7 A little bit thicker, I had to use utility scissors
10 What I consider to be the "correct thickness" for size extra-large. I have to use pruning shears to cut them in half
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I just sent an e-mail to the Virbac company concerning the decrease in the thickness of the Extra-large size. My dogs love them but they can finish this new thickness (or thinness I should say) in no time flat.
The reason that it is very noticeable to me is because I buy the extra-large for the thickness & cut them in half (with pruning shears) for my two Aussies. The bag I got today, I could almost cut them in half with kitchen scissors.
I hope that I just got a bad batch & that the future batches will be the usual thickness of the past.

*** Update: It has been at least a month since my first review when I wrote that I e-mailed the Virbac company about the the decrease in size of the Extra-Large chews.
I have NOT heard a word from them. Needless to say, their customer service is non-existent.C.E.T. chews are the only chews sticks that I give to our sporting breed. They are excellent and safe for your pup. The plus to ordering from Amazon is the price--$24.95 and free shipping versus the $38+ and $39+ price on the exact bag from our vet and another local retailer/vet. However, after ordering over a dozen bags through Amazon, I am very unsatisfied because the 30 count bag of of XL chews for a 51 lb+ dog are very inconsistent in size and thickness. If I wanted puny little chews for my 65lb dog, then I could save a ton of money by ordering these Virbac C.E.T. chews in much smaller sizes. I don't want to see skimpy pieces of chews in a bag labeled XL. Amazon customer service recently refunded my last bag but I had 3 in that order. If they are packing these XL chews as less than 1st quality and discounting because of that, then it needs to be clearly noted in the Amazon product description. Otherwise, fill the bag with the XL chews as labeled!
