Are the soft gels "chewable" or do toy have to swallow the gels?

You have to swallow them whole, but it's not difficult since they are smooth and coated.

I would say you have to swallow. They are soft, like liquid in a gel. Not like a gummy bear.

They are not chewable....I've changed to Piping Rock vitamins (available on line from Piping Rock Vitamin site)...I've never purchased chewables. All I have gotten are either gel or powder inside. Have you done a search on line with "chewable" in the search line? Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Need to be swallowed...not chewable. I found a very good (much smaller) product by FINEST brand (Walgreen's brand) and you only need to take one a day and seems to do as good a job.....might want to give it a try if size is the problem.

I give them to my 8 pound 7 month old Shih Tzu. Sometimes he eats the whole thing, but I usually take it away after an hour of chewing or so. if it looks too used I throw it away, otherwise he gets it again another day.

If you have an issue with swallowing them, they do chew easily. Although the flavor has a shellfish quality to them. I'm not someone who can swallow medium to large pills, and I wound up chewing them.

They are soft enough to handle - it's a liquid inside and the outside is a little chewy but dissolves...should be ok!

These are very small heart shaped soft chews. A small dog would have no problem chewing them. My dog loves them

I have no problem swallowing them. They're gel capsules about 3/4" long, and just slide down the throat.

They are capsules, not chewable. I open them up and mix it with my dogs food. Only Natural Pet has a good chewable probiotic you might want to try, go to Onlynaturalpet.com

These chews are hard. It takes my doggies quite a while to chew one up. Eventually they get soft and gooey so if they get on your couch or bed it can cause a bit of a mess! I don't think they'd cut easily either. They aren't super large but even my Chi enjoys chewing on them. :-)

Not easily. These are the most durable balls I've had and our dog destroys everything quickly also. If he's left with them alone to chew them for hours he might chew through but we use them for retrieval and he gets lots of chewing then but he doesn't get them to chew alone.

I don't know but some of the gumballs are a little hard but they are still chewable

My dog doesn't like chewable pill supplements, either (although it wasn't Dasuquin he was refusing, but another brand)--we had to hide them in cream cheese to get him to take them. But he eagerly takes these Soft Chews.

They are a hard chewable, but they easily break and are not hard to chew. They smell like liver and my dog thinks that they are treats. I have to watch my cat because she trys to make off with them. They are a sure thing and work!!!

Not at all. I bought them for my 1 year old. Parts not at all small enough to be put fully in the mouth let alone swallowed.

Nope. They are very durable. They will puncture and lose some bounce, and my Lab chews constantly. These are the only balls he does destroy in a minute. He has some that altho a bitted ragged are months old. Certainly well worth a try.

Nope...I just smash them for my boy cuz he is missing alot of teeth, but I see the do make soft chews probably like a heartworm pill, but they cost more...I see they do sell the soft chews..dont know if on amazon

I find them to be very chewable. If you have trouble chewing things, just let them melt in your mouth. They remind me of a caramel. I actually like the chocolate ones, but my dtr loves the caramel. Its like having a little dessert. :)

Well that's up to your dog. But if he/she doesn't like to do pills, I would try the soft chews.
