Dog loves these. Cat would like to have more.
My dog adjusted to eating these small tablets from my hand (no shoving them down his throat) in no time. He gets two per day, one for each 10 pounds of body weight.
Before I bought the tablets, which contain garlic, I read up on safety of garlic for dogs. Recent information claims that the ingredient that was thought to be a problem is at very low levels in garlic, but high levels in onions, and these tablets contain very a very small amount of garlic, so should be safe for dogs if used as directed. They are claimed to be safe for cats too. I'm giving my cat one per week rather than one per day. She loves them.
I love it.
Our dog isn't ecstatic over these but she will take them for me. She won't take them for my daughter however. I have made a counting game out of them for the dog and she just expects it every day. She doesn't even get her food until we count our tablets. Maybe she needs a shrink.
taste test
I bought brewers yeast with garlic from two different providers, Naturvet and Nutri-vet, and put 3 tabs of each on the floor, about 8" between the two types. My dog ate one Naturvet tab, sniffed the Nutri-vet then ate the other 2 Naturvet tabs and only then did he eat the Nutri-vet tabs. I repeated the test a day later and put the two rows about 3" apart with the same results; all the Naturvet tabs were eaten first.
I think the reason may be due to the Nutri-vet tabs having other vitamins in them. If I thought my dog needed those vitamins, it would be a good choice. However my dog gets a high quality dog food so I don't see a need for additional vitamins, instead my vote is for Naturvet due to my dog's taste preference.
I've posted this same review under both products
