Kidney Restore Bacon Flavor Dog Treats: Low Protein Dog Treats for Kidney Health. Kidney Dog Treats for Kidney Function for Dogs. Renal Friendly Low Protein

I have had these wonderful treats for about five days now. I found them when I was looking for something healthier than the usual stuff for my senior dog, Blake. I was looking for a treat that contained astragalus, which these do, because it has been around for years and has been proven beneficial for several ailments, including kidney and heart problems.Now Blake, my dog, is getting up there in years. He has some issues with arthritis. And earlier this year, I became concerned with his urinary health — not drinking enough water, not always being available to take him outside — those sorts of things. And the astragalus, which is in the treats, reduces joint inflammation, so I decided to go with them.I am happy to report that he is doing well; he loves the treats! And I have to say: I love the value.First, they smell amazing! Maybe it’s the fall weather and the fact that they contain cranberry and pumpkin, but they fit the definition of “treat time” for my pup. Their scent reminds me of Fig Newtons — it constantly makes me hungry.As for the value, as I said, the bag is large, absent of empty unused spaced. And it reseals nicely. The treats vary in size — they are handmade — but they are sturdy and intact, not like a bag of broken potato chips. They have great size. (as shown in my photos) They are hard but soften-up nicely with water like the label recommends.All and all, I highly recommend them. I will certainly be repurchasing these treats.

I hardly ever write reviews but felt it necessary for this item. My dog doesn’t like these treats. I only took one out of bag.It says right on the bag 60 day refund policy for any reason. This is not true, I tried to return and was informed this item is not eligible for return, so now I throw them out.

We haven’t had this product long enough to determine if it is making a difference, but I do, though that my dog loves these treats! She’s on a low protein diet, and there are many treats out there that she’s willing to eat so this is a huge win for her and for me! I set up a subscription so I don’t have to remember to re-order it. I’m very happy so far!

He really likes these! I am having trouble getting my dachshund with low protein snacks but these smell and taste good and he likes the texture.

I’ve been using these for a while for our older dog with early kidney disease.Not all dogs like them for sure - but the dogs we have that do like them - only like bacon. So, we just use bacon only and I would say 3 out of the 5 dogs will eat that flavor.Lastly, 2 of our small senior dogs (6 and 8 lbs )have no teeth. We have long learned with any of these hard type treats to crush them with a lime juicer. We tape the outside of the bottom and they crush up pretty well. Well enough for sure.As for their effectiveness, we made several diet changes including offering these as a treat and our dog’s kidney values much better.

These treats are marketed with a bacon flavor, and while that probably makes them appealing to dogs, the texture is the real issue. They are extremely hard, and my senior dog struggled to chew them. It worried me that they could hurt her teeth.The idea of a kidney-friendly treat is great, but the hardness makes them impractical for the very dogs that often need them most. Younger dogs with strong teeth might manage, but they’re not suitable for seniors.For the price, they’re not a good value if you’re buying them for an older dog.

My dog is extremely picky and loves them!!

Very expensive, flavorless, difficult to chew. My dog doesn’t care for them whatsoever.
