    Awesome plant-based chew
    Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 1), Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: 6 Count (Pack of 1)
    My goldendoodle, Chino, absolutely adores these chews. Sometimes she goes to work and it’s it all at one sitting, or sometimes she carries it around for hours or even days before she digs in. Either way, she’s happy as can be to have these, and I’m pleased that they’re plant based (except for the egg) because she’s vegan like me.

    Great product
    Size: 0.18 Ounce (Pack of 25)
    Just bought theTwist Sticks with Peanut Butter & Munchy Sticks 2 weeks ago for my very fussy 11 year old Cocker Spaniel but was totally surprised on how he immediately loved them and keeps looking at me wanting another one. Think this might be something to consider adding to my subscribe and save list.

    picky yorkie approved
    Size: 0.18 Ounce (Pack of 25)
    well, like many of the other members of the dingo fan club, it’s been hard to find consistency with dingo products the last few years likely due to some products being manufactured in more than one country. even though i’ve thrown hundred maybe thousands down the drain trying to appease my picky 13 year old diva, the truth is i still won’t give up bc she likes what she likes! and she likes dingo plain and simply. it’s her world and i’m just living in it LOL! I’ve never had an issue with any of these peanut butter twist stick packages of 25 like i have had with the white and red ones. i usually have to soak them in hot water for a few mins to soften up a bit but not these pb sticks. my yorkie is 13 and doesn’t have the best teeth and is missing a few in the front lol so if something is too hard, she just gives up. this product is great value
