The honeycomb like patented shape makes it different from any other doggie dental treat. The treat surrounds your dog's teeth for a deeper, more complete clean while it is being chewed. It is designed to floss dog's teeth up to the gum line and gently massages where periodontal disease gets its foot hold. Its width and depth prevents dogs from gulping it down in one bite and encourages them to chew longer. Yummy Combs are also packed with nutrition and wellness ingredients for a complete and balanced diet.

Description
Yummy Combs has a wide, flat, 6-sided patented design that deters gulping and encourages longer chew time. Our added, patented ingredient, Slick'M, creates a slippery surface that greatly reduces the possibility of any portion becoming lodged in the esophagus. The thin wall construction helps preserve volatile ingredients and allows the treat to dissolve quickly while also accelerating digestion so the nutrients are absorbed more effectively.
Yummy Combs contain 44% Animal Protein chicken and casein contain all 20 amino acids which build and repair tissue. 44% Protein represents 2 ½ times the average protein levels of other dental treats. Yummy Combs contain both the highest quantity and the highest quality proteins, producing an exceptional value for the pet parent. The NPIQ2 (Net Protein Index of Quantity x Quality) and complete and balanced formula both contribute to Yummy Combs being rated 1st in nutritional value.
The patented Yummy Combs shape is hard and tough with two sides of pockets that encapsulate the dog's teeth. The pockets allow the treat to floss/scrape tartar and plaque all the way to the gumline while the added special phosphates further break down tartar and plaque. Dr. Jan Bellows, past president of the American Veterinary Dental College, fine-tuned the Yummy Combs design for safety and efficacy. The US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued 3 design patents, 1 utility patent and 2 patents are pending for the #1 Oral Care Design for flossing and cleaning teeth.

FAQ
The innovative honeycomb shape requires dogs to chew it rather than gulp the treat down whole. The hexagonal shape is designed to be wider than the oropharynx of the dog's throat (the non-stretching gateway to the stomach). They are conceived and formulated by pet lovers based on science, technology, engineering and math. Check the package or our website to determine the correct size Yummy Combs for your dog.
Yummy Combs are to be given one treat per day. They are formulated for Adult Dogs Only with Glucosamine and Chondroitin; feeding more that one treat per day would exceed the recommended AAFCO requirement.
Chicken is the number one ingredient in Yummy Combs. If your dog is allergic or sensitive to chicken; avoid feeding Yummy Combs. They are made with natural ingredients and free of gluten, grain, hence (Non-GMO) and lactose. They can be fed to dogs with a range of dietary considerations. Talk to your veterinarian about whether Yummy Combs are an appropriate addition to your dog's diet. As with people, a low percentage of dogs have allergies to certain ingredients.
The answer is Yes! The thin wall honeycomb design with increased surface area-to-volume ratio improves digestibility. This also improves solubility and allows Yummy Combs to be produced at lower temperatures preserving valuable nutrients during the manufacturing process.
Yummy Combs are made with spray-dried chicken as the number one ingredient. They also include milk casein, powdered honey and natural liver flavoring. Your dog will do its tricks without even being asked.
Without proper teeth cleaning, flossing and gum massaging, gingivitis and periodontal disease can set in. Bleeding gums allow bacteria and toxins to access the circulatory system easily where they race to damage vital organs, and in some cases result in death. Autopsies very seldom state that the dog died from periodontal disease, but merely state that the dog died from failure of a vital organ. However, the damage to the vital organ is often a result of periodontal disease.
Canine nutritionists recommend 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight for dogs that are considered a healthy weight for their size and breed.
The idea came from years of experience in the pet industry and a passion and love for dogs ensuring they could have a pet's best life. Dr. Joe Roetheli began thinking about the root cause of death among dogs in general; the answer was periodontal disease. Periodontal disease was the main culprit in letting bacteria enter the dog's vital organs, many times going undiagnosed as the cause for organ failure. Regular visits to the veterinarian and proper oral care is the gold standard; but Joe knew if he could develop a product that would reduce the build up of tartar and plaque on the dogs teeth between visits, it would be a game changer. His design would need to be a hard and tough surface that could chip away at the tartar and plaque cleaning up to the gum line where the periodontal disease gets its foot hold. It would also need to be easily digestible and soluble so as not to cause an esophageal obstruction or obstruction in the bowl. His thin wall design does both, ensuring the maximum surface to weight ratio. Finally; he wanted to develop a dental treat that was complete and balance ending the empty calorie claim that treats have so long had to weather over the years.
Yummy Combs are proudly made in North Kansas City, Missouri with love by experienced pet product manufacturers.
