I'm so thankful that we have this kind of information so that I don't get fooled into thinking I'm doing the best for my dog when it's actually hurting him
I think MOST if not ALL of us started from the same place before learning more. We are all the same that way and at the end of the day, we do the best we can no matter what.
I LOVE how you’re actively educating/spreading awareness about topics like these! Your videos make me so happy because I can tell that you film with a genuine passion
I’m so thrilled to share that I’ll be getting a sweet cavapoo pup soon. My first puppy! The information you share on your channel has been invaluable as I learn how to navigate the dog food industry, training tips and ensuring overall health for my pup. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Wishing you and your pack a B-UUUUUtiful one! 😊💕✨
She's actively lying and misleading. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist but she's got no clue about humans or dogs. She thinks e numbers are all synthetic ffs - people haven't thought e numbers were bad since the 80s. Added vitamins are coded with e numbers
I have a 7 yo YorkiePoo (11 lbs) and have always given her Bully Stick to chew on - nothing else (!) because of the fact that they ARE natural! As natural as they are, they are BAD for dogs teeth! My dog ended up fracturing a molar and a premolar overtime from chewing on them! Vet said they see a lot of fractured teeth in dogs from chewing Bully Sticks! While some dogs probably go on with their lives not having any issues chewing on them, most pet parents aren't even aware that their dogs may have fractured a tooth or two! Dental issues on dogs are NOT easy to detect because dogs STILL eat regardless of the pain. (Even with a broken jaw, a dog will STILL eat), so pet parents will assume there's no dental issues because their dog is still eating and chews on things. My dog had abcess where the fractured teeth were and we had no idea how long she had them BECAUSE she continued to eat and chew! Not too sure about the other recommendations, but Bully Stick in my book is a No No! They should ban those!
I've been a LONG TIME fan, Rachel! It's cool to see the channel evolve, and I love the more research-focused videos I've seen lately. Thank you for always making thoughtful content!
Thanks so much for your information..I was online looking for a nontoxic chew for my dogs and couldn’t find anything I was comfortable purchasing for my dogs. Then I thought I’d just go on TH-cam and your video popped up. Grateful !
I have been using your DIY toothpaste for awhile now and all 3 of my dogs love it. Their breathe smells so much better and it’s helping remove some of the tarter from their teeth. (It takes time) Can’t wait to try some more ideas from this video. Thank you❤️
Hey Rachel, live this video thank you for teaching me how to clean my dogs teeth without unnecessary ingredients 😁 could you do a video on how to train your stubborn dog to not stop all the time on walks and how to get your dog to like their harness?? That would be super helpful 😊
I’m so thrilled to share that I will be getting my first cavapoo pup soon! Thank you so much @RachelFusaro for your channel!

Wishing you and your pack a B-UUUUU-tiful one! 😊💕✨
Oh my goodness thank you for this...I am totally going to try this and check out your site. I nearly lost my puppy when I gave her chicken treats and she nearly choked to death so I am looking for alternative stuff and healthier to boot. I am a disabled vet and my therapy animals mean the world to me and my family. Thanks again!
I’ve seen most of your videos which I love. If I may, can I ask you to do a video recommending the best pet friendly cleaning products? Like detergent, soap, spray, wipes?
I had to stop giving my fur baby Markas the greenies as well because it was messing with his stomach and making his poo look weird. I only cook my fur baby all organic food. Thank you Rachel for sharing a list of dental treats you use for your fur babies.
Thank you so much, my baby Mya is a 9 month old Yorkie, and shebis very smart, but also very hard headed. Its hardbto train her let alone brush her teeth. I was looking for the best option to clean her teeth, and your video popped up.
Rachel! Huge fan, ive been following you since my border collie was a puppy and you’ve helped me be the best dog parent I can be! Learned so much from you! Quick question, what’s your thought on “Plaque Off Powder” found at my local healthy pet food store. watching this episode, definitely picking up some new chews!
Hey Rachel! Thank you so much for sharing this. We love the native pet yak chews too! I notice the yellow yak chew holder(?) Finn was holding. What is that? We definitely need to get that. Holding the yak chew directly with the paws hurts my pup a bit and causes some discomfort. This holder looks like a great option.
Try rubbing coconut oil on the gum line with your finger. It is antibacterial and will help break down the plaque. Then you can give something later in the day or evening like a bully stick or turkey neck to chew on.
My dog did LOVE bullysticks but they cracked one of her teeth, and many other dogs I know had the same issue :( It really worked to clean her teeth though! I brush twice a day but she still has plaque. Will try out the coconut chew!
I have a rescued feral Pitty who lived for the first 8 months of his life on his own. We noticed him eating grass and digging up roots. As he is very hard to feed (never ate the recommended daily amount of kibble) usually eating 1/2 the amount. Tried feeding him various fresh veggies without success. I found "Minties" which is the only dog chew I can find with actual chlorophyll from mint and alfalfa. He loves these and I suspect it prompts him to drink water (he's dehydrated and got a severe infection) now, we add chicken Jerky and Jerky/sweet potato treats. We suspect "Buddy" survived the widespread flooding from Hurricane Harvey. Which possibly causes him to be averse to water. I'm looking into wet dog food options to bolster his moisture/nutrient intake.
Feed him homemade dog food - dogs get a lot of hydration from their food. I found when I started making homemade dog food, my dogs’ digestion improved and they drank less water because they were less thirsty. Hope this helps!
I’m the same way! I always read ingredients before purchasing any product for my baby boy. I didn’t know any of this thank you for informing me. No more greenies for my baby
If none of these are in your budget just use peeled carrots - - might have to. Slice or chop em depending on your dog size(don't use baby carrots in fear of choking hazard) or celery occasionally (still high in sugar but more nutrients) . Supervise your dogs while chewing it and hey, save you a lot of bucks, still consult your vet beforehand if you are concerned about it.
Please be careful with yak chews! my dog has a habit of not chewing and does swallow pretty big pieces whole. She swallowed the last piece of her yak chew and caused a major indiscretion in her intestine. Really thought she had an obstruction as she had one before that time. Fortunately, she pooped out the piece, but I will never give her that again.
I always suggest putting a holder on any chew & monitoring every session!Really most anything could become a hazard, socks rocks branches toys chews - but holders can help mitigate risk! Thanks for sharing your experience
We have a number of smaller companies in Australia that specialise in single protein source dog treats. These are 100 natural sourced from animals in Australia. Products like lamb or beef tracheas, kangaroo tails an ribs, reef fish chicken hearts, wild venison etc. All naturally dried with nothing added. They are expensive to buy of course, but one of the things I like most about companies that provide this type of natural protein is that they are taking animal parts that may other wise go to waste and using them to provide healthy options. In my opinion, by sourcing ethically farmed animals and then not allowing anything to go to waste, you are doing the best for your dog and best for the environment and farming community.
Thank you for your video content. I love your attitude about being the best pet parent or dog owner possible. I have the green stuff and I read what the package says, but the ingredients just don’t back up their claims. Most widely available options don’t. I enjoy trying your treat suggestions but my female poodle just doesn’t like some of it (like freeze dried liver) so I give them cooked chicken, ground beef, cheese or their food for treats. Keep making these informative videos, I appreciate them.
Thank you for this comment, and for your commitment to your 🐶. I truly believe brands want the best for pets, but sometimes the execution is lacking imo
And also thank you so much for recommending those yak cheese chews! They totally got my puppy through his teething stage. With my other dogs when they were puppies, I lost furniture during that time b/c I didn’t get to them fast enough. Love people helping people through sharing knowledge and experience.
@@RachelFusaro I have the coco chews and they seem pretty good, but I do notice several fibers coming out and my small dogs easily pull them out of the woven rope and seemingly eat them. Is that pretty normal for the fibers to come out that easily? I guess they’re thin and fairly small but I always get paranoid when toys or chews start losing fibers, fur, little pieces of the material used, etc. Is that your experience as well?
You are always sharing such wonderful information and support, thank you 😊 There are many happy dogs and owners that have better relationship I’m sure. I am getting a new labradoodle pup in a couple of months. She will be my assistance dog. What are the personality traits that you would look for that would be great for an assistance dog? Thanks Can’t wait for your next video 🐩❤️
Hearing about greenies now freaks me out. My 3 dogs love them. What are alternative treats for dogs please? I haven’t seen any of your videos before and I’m loving what I have watched so far. Just saw above pinned message 🙈
I have been giving my dog dental chews for quite sometime now, however he always has bad breath. I think I will try one of your alternatives that you have recommended. Thank you and I will be back with an update very soon.
I wish i had time for this... work two jobs have kids and 5dogs... im trying to find a treat that will jist help with tarter :/ what do you think about costco brand dental chews
I love this channel so much. I have looking for more better treats for my dogs and he absolutely loves them. I went to my local landmark feed supply and they have all things from bully sticks to chews treats food. A lot of their products are from smaller business and 1 ingredient chews and treats which I love. I also get his raw bones from their. I am glad I checked out this channel to better help my dog. I am also not giving my dogs greenies anymore. Thank you so much for the info.
Hey Rachel, do you have any tips on how to get your dog to eat any medicine they have to take? Like antibiotics for example, my golden got an ear infection and some rashes due to allergies and the hot weather here in Florida. I’ve been having to give him antibiotics twice a day for a week. I tried wrapping it in cheese, (he doesn’t like peanut butter), I even bought those pill pockets (horrible ingredients) and he won’t eat (too smart for his own good). Do you have this problem with your doggos? Also, do your dogs suffer from seasonal allergies?
I've really been trying to transition raw meat to my dogs diet but his 💩 has just been so soft mushy boogers slimey and gross! Idk if it's going to work but I'm still trying been giving him about 1/4 of half cooked meat and I'm seeing improvements just been a loooong process
I gave my dog one of those green treats and she had it gone in less than 30 seconds. Then I worried about an intestinal blockage or something else due to her just swallowing it almost whole. Never again.
Hey i enjoyed the vid cause you covered what wasnt good and you also gave what you use and tis highly appretitated. But, i do wonder if Oyster Shell ingredients is okay for the dogs digestive system. Thanks to whoever respond.
I have a 10 month old, 4 lb., tiny toy poodle who has a gentle mouth that is too small to brush her teeth. She already is developing tartar! She loves to chew bully bits that I have sourced locally but I think they are coated with something and smoked (no label). I would like to find small chews but have no idea what to give her instead. Any help would be appreciated. We are in Canada. Thank you.
Can you do a video on these bones that claim to be nohide (no rawhide) but there's been lawsuits saying they do have rawhide? Also about beef cheek technically being rawhide as well?
Hi Rachel! Where can I get that yellow yak chew holder that bentley used on 1:05? Been looking everywhere for a good quality one, I used a Kong and sadly it tore when I tried to remove the end of the yak chew 😩
I just found your video but wowww I can't believe you'd recommend Yak Chews, they're absolutely horrible for dog's teeth. They're extremely hard and have read tons of bad reviews on dog's losing their teeth and needing expensive dental work due to it.
What’s your opinion on beef trachea for teeth cleaning? My dog chipped a tooth on a bone recently and I’m nervous about what to give her as a replacement
Great video :) very important information..Thank you so much :) A couple times i have bought the minty greens from "hunter".. have no idea what was in them but they remind me of the tweezers or what ever they are called. same texture..Hard and Brittle .. Not going buy them again.. Just ordered calcium bones from the same brand.. Will deff. have a look at the package when they arrive.. They smell very good and get's a bit soft when chewing. You can actually bend them slightly. . I have never had any bad experiences with them.. - like i have had 3 times with pedigree pal's dentastix. They broke off between the canine teeth and was stuck to the upper gum ( all 3 different german shepherds ).. Just think how it could have ended if they were left alone because they panicked... So i mostly I give my dog natural chews...Made of 100% dried meat. Dried fishskin, etc. Feeding mostly raw but because we travel quite a bit i do give kibble as the last meal in the evening - but i feed Orijen - it was best quality food i could find AND the only kibble my spoilt rotten dutchie want's to eat.. . For treats : chicken and liver. regarding kibble and some treats: It scared the S*** out of me when i heard that the meat powder that is super processed and used as the protein in many treats and espec. kibble is actually detected by the immunesystem as a threat.. Like a foreign object in the body so the immune system get's into high alert.. but it start attacking the body because it can not sort out the meat so you get auto immune diseases like severe allergy... made me shiver... i am never ever going to give my dog anything that has what we call . Meat flour.. / Meat powder..
I love your vids sooo much! My 12 wk silver lab came to us from the breeder with a sack of breeder only premium kibble and the breeder insists we cannot change bran or add any treats/chews, until our puppy is 1 year! My puppy has terrible diarrhoea a lot though and I’m concerned about the high carbs/unnatural type kibble etc, please could you advise what I can do at this stage. Can I change his food? Can I add treats/chews at this stage? Thank you 🙏❤️
you can always change your puppies food/treats dont listen to that breeder unless they your puppy has medical records of having allergies or other problems🤔 and if you want to try out new foods try out Diamond Naturals Large Breed puppy food got 2 different breeds on it and their poop is always firm
My puppy too. He can only handle half cup of kibble per day, so we do Farmer’s Dog for the rest of his diet. So far we have found that Bernie’s Perfect Poop can help also with diarrhea. Plus a good probiotic. Also fecal test to rule Giardia.
I'm desperately trying to find the name of the female owned company you mentioned in your dog treats video, I cannot find a link under that video to the Austin based business. Please share the name of the company or direct link as I would like to contact them to place an order. Thank you.
Lemons and limes are toxic to dogs, salt and dairy isn’t very good for them… since they’re lacking enzymes that break it down, so why have the Himalayan chews been SO popular all over Amazon and homemade versions? (All 3 ingredients used for them are harmful!) I just don’t get it. I’ve been researching chews to make my pup at home, and that’s all I see now.
My 9-year-old Chiweenie became diabetic after having denta sticks every other day for a month. 6 months later he had to be put down even though he was on insulin.

Yes I've got these treats before from my pugs and never again they always choke on them them I've learned my lesson
Thank you. Some of the links don't work for me. Do you have any recommendations for products in the UK? XX
Why the yak chews? The 3 ingredients in them are harmful/toxic to dogs, especially the lemon/limes. And I’m seeing them everywhere 😮
all of these seem to be unavailable now😢 what do i do

She's actively lying and misleading. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist but she's got no clue about humans or dogs. She thinks e numbers are all synthetic ffs - people haven't thought e numbers were bad since the 80s. Added vitamins are coded with e numbers

I’ve seen most of your videos which I love. If I may, can I ask you to do a video recommending the best pet friendly cleaning products? Like detergent, soap, spray, wipes?
This is a great informative video! I was wondering how do you feel about Dr. Marty’s food and treats?
I had to stop giving my fur baby Markas the greenies as well because it was messing with his stomach and making his poo look weird.
I only cook my fur baby all organic food.
Thank you Rachel for sharing a list of dental treats you use for your fur babies.
was just wondering about this. this video is so timely! Thank you!! 🥰
I’m so happy you made a new video 😍 , I missed them! What chews do you recommend for a Maltese? My baby is 6 pounds! So she’s tiny
Thank you for making this video as I will try the dental chews you mention for my dog to fade from giving him Whimzees.
Thank you so much, my baby Mya is a 9 month old Yorkie, and shebis very smart, but also very hard headed. Its hardbto train her let alone brush her teeth. I was looking for the best option to clean her teeth, and your video popped up.
You have been SO helpful to me -- and saved me time and $$. Can't thank you enough!!
Thanks, I'm going to try these.
Thank you for posting this video! It came when I needed it. I'm looking for the best dental chew for my pup. Now I know what to buy and not to buy.

Quick question, what’s your thought on “Plaque Off Powder” found at my local healthy pet food store. watching this episode, definitely picking up some new chews!

Holding the yak chew directly with the paws hurts my pup a bit and causes some discomfort. This holder looks like a great option.
Orovet is hands down the BEST. I also give my dog the Ark Naturals because it helps keep her regular.
My dogs both absolutely refuse to let me brush their teeth. I’ve watched so many videos on this and nothing works😭 feel I have to rely on these chews
Try rubbing coconut oil on the gum line with your finger. It is antibacterial and will help break down the plaque. Then you can give something later in the day or evening like a bully stick or turkey neck to chew on.

We have a number of smaller companies in Australia that specialise in single protein source dog treats. These are 100 natural sourced from animals in Australia. Products like lamb or beef tracheas, kangaroo tails an ribs, reef fish chicken hearts, wild venison etc. All naturally dried with nothing added. They are expensive to buy of course, but one of the things I like most about companies that provide this type of natural protein is that they are taking animal parts that may other wise go to waste and using them to provide healthy options. In my opinion, by sourcing ethically farmed animals and then not allowing anything to go to waste, you are doing the best for your dog and best for the environment and farming community.
Is only using treats good enough or should I do extra dental care
Thank you so much for this information!!! We are on the same wavelength! Appreciate you!!

Amazing video!!! I had a question what do you use to brush your dogs teeth? I would love a new video about that!!!
Lady you earned my eternal subscription
I know that oyster shell calcium can cause kidney stones in humans, dogs ?
I have a chihuahua which treats are suitable please, she only has tiny teeth.
Thank you
Wow thank you so much for all the information

Could you recommend any good dental cat treats?
I cannot get your diy tooth paste to come up ? ?
I wish i had time for this... work two jobs have kids and 5dogs... im trying to find a treat that will jist help with tarter :/ what do you think about costco brand dental chews
I fed my dogs chicken feet and they all threw up and pooped for two days. So what to do? I brush their teeth at least.
What about bones? They're a species appropriate choice without carbs.
i was feeding whimzies to my 1yr old sheltie and she got really sick for a few days, got an x-ray and turns out she was constipated
Thank you so much

I gave my dog one of those green treats and she had it gone in less than 30 seconds. Then I worried about an intestinal blockage or something else due to her just swallowing it almost whole. Never again.
Wow that’s scary!
I had the same thing happen. She is a toy cavoodle who turns 4 months tomorrow. She won’t be getting another one!
Thanks Rachel, any water additive for dogs teeth. My dog kind of used to let me brush his teeth but now runs. I offer treats etc but he still runs
Hey i enjoyed the vid cause you covered what wasnt good and you also gave what you use and tis highly appretitated. But, i do wonder if Oyster Shell ingredients is okay for the dogs digestive system. Thanks to whoever respond.
Thank you so much for this 🙏🏻
Can you recommend one for senior small dog with kidney disease?.
How about the water additives sold at pet stores? Are they good? I gave that to my dogs, and they got really nauseous; Is that normal and ok?
How often do you brush your dog’s teeth?
what about for a small dog, like a chihuahua? what should I buy
Hi Rachel
I don't see where I can pay with my credit card if I don't use the other method of payments
I have a 10 month old, 4 lb., tiny toy poodle who has a gentle mouth that is too small to brush her teeth. She already is developing tartar! She loves to chew bully bits that I have sourced locally but I think they are coated with something and smoked (no label). I would like to find small chews but have no idea what to give her instead. Any help would be appreciated. We are in Canada. Thank you.
The VOHC label tells me it is crap and to avoid it.
Awesome. Thank you 👍
What do you think of vets best dental care finger wipes? Of dental wipes with Chlorhexidine?
It is really good to listen to someone who knows what they are talking about 🫡🫡👌👌👍👍
Can you tell me how often your brush their teeth? Thank you.
Would you suggest the brand Acana? That’s what a worker at Petco recommended since it’s natural but I’d like to hear your take on it
links not working
What do you think of the Ark Naturals brushless toothpaste chews?
Can you do a video on these bones that claim to be nohide (no rawhide) but there's been lawsuits saying they do have rawhide? Also about beef cheek technically being rawhide as well?
Would love your suggestion for pet toothpaste… I love been looking and don’t know … please help
My dog is obsessed with Greenies. What can I use as an alternative to Greenies that is healthy and similar?
watch the video and find out…
Hi Rachel! Where can I get that yellow yak chew holder that bentley used on 1:05? Been looking everywhere for a good quality one, I used a Kong and sadly it tore when I tried to remove the end of the yak chew 😩
I just found your video but wowww I can't believe you'd recommend Yak Chews, they're absolutely horrible for dog's teeth. They're extremely hard and have read tons of bad reviews on dog's losing their teeth and needing expensive dental work due to it.
have you reviewed bark bright?
What dental treats do you recommend?
Chewbrush? Are they ok
Could I buy them treats for smaller dogs
I have a 2mos old schnauzer and what treats do they love
What do u recomend for flea protection
What’s your opinion on beef trachea for teeth cleaning? My dog chipped a tooth on a bone recently and I’m nervous about what to give her as a replacement
beef tracheas are pretty safe been giving my puppy those and if you look for some reviews they’ll be pretty good
Great video :) very important information..Thank you so much :)
A couple times i have bought the minty greens from "hunter".. have no idea what was in them but they remind me of the tweezers or what ever they are called. same texture..Hard and Brittle ..
Not going buy them again..
Just ordered calcium bones from the same brand.. Will deff. have a look at the package when they arrive.. They smell very good and get's a bit soft when chewing. You can actually bend them slightly. . I have never had any bad experiences with them.. - like i have had 3 times with pedigree pal's dentastix. They broke off between the canine teeth and was stuck to the upper gum ( all 3 different german shepherds ).. Just think how it could have ended if they were left alone because they panicked...
So i mostly I give my dog natural chews...Made of 100% dried meat. Dried fishskin, etc. Feeding mostly raw but because we travel quite a bit i do give kibble as the last meal in the evening - but i feed Orijen - it was best quality food i could find AND the only kibble my spoilt rotten dutchie want's to eat.. .
For treats : chicken and liver.
regarding kibble and some treats: It scared the S*** out of me when i heard that the meat powder that is super processed and used as the protein in many treats and espec. kibble is actually detected by the immunesystem as a threat.. Like a foreign object in the body so the immune system get's into high alert.. but it start attacking the body because it can not sort out the meat so you get auto immune diseases like severe allergy... made me shiver... i am never ever going to give my dog anything that has what we call . Meat flour.. / Meat powder..
I love your vids sooo much! My 12 wk silver lab came to us from the breeder with a sack of breeder only premium kibble and the breeder insists we cannot change bran or add any treats/chews, until our puppy is 1 year! My puppy has terrible diarrhoea a lot though and I’m concerned about the high carbs/unnatural type kibble etc, please could you advise what I can do at this stage. Can I change his food? Can I add treats/chews at this stage? Thank you 🙏❤️
you can always change your puppies food/treats dont listen to that breeder unless they your puppy has medical records of having allergies or other problems🤔 and if you want to try out new foods try out Diamond Naturals Large Breed puppy food got 2 different breeds on it and their poop is always firm
My puppy too. He can only handle half cup of kibble per day, so we do Farmer’s Dog for the rest of his diet. So far we have found that Bernie’s Perfect Poop can help also with diarrhea. Plus a good probiotic. Also fecal test to rule Giardia.
I'm desperately trying to find the name of the female owned company you mentioned in your dog treats video, I cannot find a link under that video to the Austin based business. Please share the name of the company or direct link as I would like to contact them to place an order. Thank you.
How about a list of affordable treats...
Ohhh try these! a.co/hm9ntBe
just gave my dog a greenie and he diarrhea’d all over his crate!!!!
Mint oils are toxic to dogs, so I stopped using these because of these and starches and synthetic ingredients
Lemons and limes are toxic to dogs, salt and dairy isn’t very good for them… since they’re lacking enzymes that break it down, so why have the Himalayan chews been SO popular all over Amazon and homemade versions? (All 3 ingredients used for them are harmful!) I just don’t get it. I’ve been researching chews to make my pup at home, and that’s all I see now.
My 9-year-old Chiweenie became diabetic after having denta sticks every other day for a month. 6 months later he had to be put down even though he was on insulin.
