Best tasting calming stick
My dogs love the calming dental stick. I started giving it to my dog because she was shaking every time the truck ( commercial truck) would pass on a pothole. She would get very nervous. So I bought a few product to try to help her. She didn’t like any of them until I found the Zesty Paws Oradtix. It’s basically two products in one, the calming and the dental cleaning. As soon as they hear the noise from the bag opening, they will come running and sit waiting for me to give to them. Of course I had to give to my other dog too even though he’s not a nervous dog. I noticed their breath is not bad either ( I do their dental cleaning every year). My dog now ( after the second week) is chill and stopped shaking. I highly recommend this product.

Pretty good
No need to bother with a photo review because what you see is what you get. Even if the calming effects don’t work for your pup, the teeth cleaning seems to be very good! Given these to my dog 3 times so far and he hasn’t had any adverse effects and hasn’t gotten sick. Very cheap for a dentastix comparison plus calming effects too? Bargain! My unfixed male 3 year old dog doesn’t calm down for anything, not even these treats, but it does seem to help him sleep longer once he does go to sleep. His breath smells minty fresh after so that freshening aspect works well. My dog is a mix between a chihuahua and a wiener dog and it’s just the right size for him to much on for a few minutes with relative ease kind of a mix between a soft and a hard treat. Medium and large dogs would chew these up in half a second.

Dogs Like It. Mild Calming Effect, No Side Effects
Both of my dogs like these!I use this for my 2 small / medium dogs. One had mild separation anxiety after the pandemic and the other is a rescue dog who is cautious and anxious about everything: playing with his brother, jumping up onto the couch with us, going for a walk outside, etc.These have helped them to be more calm without seeming sedated or drugged in any way.I have noticed they are less clingy, less weird about things, more relaxed, and more likely to play together when I give them these treats.TLDR: not a miracle drug, you still have to train your dog, BUT mild calming effect, and importantly-no negative side effects

a stress free dog is a happy dog
As a pet parent and reviewer, I tested the OraStix on my 90 pound pitbull prone to mild anxiety during thunderstorms and fireworks. After introducing the sticks 30–60 minutes before an anticipated stressor (such as July 4th fireworks), I observed a notable calming effect within an hour. While not sedative, the chews appeared to take the edge off, allowing my dog to rest more comfortably.The texture and shape of the sticks also encouraged chewing, which in turn aided in plaque reduction. After several weeks of daily use, there was noticeable improvement in both breath and overall oral cleanliness.Melatonin, typically used to aid sleep and anxiety, is well-dosed here—effective without over-sedation. However, pet owners should always consult their vet before using, especially for dogs with health conditions.

Good for teeth, mildly calming!
Why did you pick this product vs others?:This item was favorably reviewed and I wanted something to use for my dog on the 4th of July.Ease of use:It was easy to use and I found it to be mildly effective for calming. I would buy it again though because it cleans teeth and it has some calming effect.

Amazing works so good!! just wish they had some of the same kind without melatonin
I have a new senior rescue collie/pit mix who has terrible anxiety in general but during fireworks, her anxiety goes up 100% and is completely terrified. So i decided to try these and she was so calm and just was laying there calm. she was still alert and would put her head up at times especially with really loud fireworks from the neighbors but definitely a huge difference.my only complaint which really isn’t that big of a complaint as I wish they did not have melatonin in them or they sold some separately that didn’t because I wanted to start giving these to her daily to help with her overall anxiety, but since they have melatonin in it does make her really tired so I don’t think I can really give it to her as an every day thing, I know they have different versions of calming traits from zesty paw but those have less of the hemp seed powder so I wish that they had some exactly like this, but without the melatonin so I could give it to her more on a daily basis and keep the melatonin ones for when she will be in the kennel because she has horrible anxiety with that as well and also for situations like fireworks, but it’s not like I want her to be drowsy every day

Update to original review.. see bottom
My dog is a 25 pound Sheltie. He has been given these chews almost every night for about a year. Last night this all has changed.We had a serious close call last night. We give our boy a zesty paws treat every night before bed to help with dental cleaning. It also has a calming affect. Been doing it for a year, no problems. But last night he started choking on it and he wasn’t breathing. He was thrashing around and I thought we were losing him. I tried reaching into his throat to see if I could remove it. Couldn’t. Frantically I tried doing what could only be considered the Heimlich maneuver. Somehow eventually he dislodged it but it got stuck sideways between his teeth, but at least he was able to now breathe. My daughter the vet tech arrived and we all held him so she could reach in and pull it out. You could tell he was so relieved…. And so were we. Be careful of these hard chewable treats. Never had a problem before but now I’m scared to death to give him anymore unless I cut it into a much smaller piece. Anyways, Mika is still here and fine this morning ♥️. I doubt that I will ever give these to him again.** So, since this unfortunate incident I’ve been breaking the treats into 1/4 pieces. Now give them this size to both of our Shelties. They do love the treats and they definitely help them stay relaxed and help the sleep. So glad that it did work out… Just be vigilant !

Dog will not eat these at all. Ive tried breaking them up, smothering them in her fave wet food but no go. She will take it in her mouth and spit them out. She will eat other dental sticks, so I think maybe the taste or texture is putting her off. Disappointing as I now have a whole bag that I can’t use.
