What is the difference between the Hextra and the Enzymatic Chews. The Vet set to get C.E.T. chews?

One type is just the highly digestible chew with no additives and the other contains added chlorhexidine to assist in bacterial control. I hope this helps. :)

Here are a couple of web sites with information: http://www.vetrxdirect.com/product/view/cet-hextra-chews http://www.dogbuffs.com/cet-chews-hextra

I have given both to my dogs. I find that the enzymatic chews are sharp and I am afraid it would be hard for the dogs to digest and it may get chocked on their throat so I switched to the CET vegetable chews and they are more soft and chewable and more digestible plus my dogs love them even my senior dog who is 11 years old with senior teeth. Hope this helps.

I really don't know the difference; but, as I see on Amazon, the Enzymatic ones are more expensive. I would recommend you ask your Vet which one he wants you to get for your animal.

I don't recall buying but now use Trifexis. My dog is 1/2 wolf so didn't have any problems chewing,

I have both colors; buy mine at Fred Meyers in the animal food section. Your dog won't know the difference. :-)

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.

There is a long list of ingredients, but I don't see enzymes. Neverthreless, both my cats absolutely love them ....much better than their regular boring kibble. I'd say, give them a greet, and brush or wipe their teeth.

The Hextra or Extra component is the chlorehexidine. Provides a well-known antiseptic effect and helps remove plaque and reduce tartar. Chews are coated with exclusive 10% solution of chlorhexidine gluconate.

I buy these because my vet recommends them, Not the bet ingredients but the dogs love them. Directions Give your dog at least one chew daily, or as directed by your veterinarian, to reduce plaque. The oral hygiene benefit of C.E.T. VeggieDent chews can only be achieved by adequate chewing action. Gulping whole chews will reduce the efficacy and can be harmful to your dog.

Not sure, but I much prefer the version by Mercola http://products.mercola.com/healthypets/digestive-enzymes-for-pet/ and NO, I have no association with Mercola, just like the quality of his products

Denamarin is the newer version of this drug but they are virtually the same, I like nutramax better as it is chewable and my dog is 15 years old and only has 5 teeth I crush it and mix it in her food plus denamarin is a lot more expensive but vets will tell you they are the same

Do not know! These chews are wonderful! Not easy for a dog to gulp. They are very hard so that to me freezing would not be necessary, and might change the taste! My dogs, LOVE these better than any chews, and I feel that they keep their teeth free from dental problems.

My Vet/Dentist said use no toothpaste. Don't know if it is enzymatic. My cat wanted no part of the toothpaste. I also found that the little brush that slips over finger works best on a cat, they come with a packet of toothpaste.

I'm not sure how to tell the difference, but a vet I spoke with recently claimed that fleas have been working up a tolerance to the product. The vet suggested teaming this product up with a collar (ineffective as well) to alternating with the Advantage brand.

I have purchased both. Tablets r cheaper but my one dog had no problem eating either...he is not fussy. On the other hand, my other dog would not eat neither. I tried breaking up and putting inside food like a pill but spit out. Not sure if this helps.

Hi Caryl, this is Benebone the seller. We have a new smaller bone coming out in the coming months. For a heavy chewer, we recommend the larger size for safety. But we are excited about the smaller one. You can always order it and if it doesn't work out we will refund you. Best, Peter at Benebone

I honestly don't think it matters at all. My dog loves both flavors and licks every biscuit before he eats them. He knows the flavors, and I cannot discern the difference at all, not that I've tried...

I'm am not familiar with either of those. I do know it is a horrible choking hazzard for any dog. My dog had it in pieces within only a few hours. They claim it is made for heavy chewers. It definitely is not.
