My pug loves to eat them. My lab needs a bit of coaxing. But will eventually eat it. I have found a terrific way to get him to eat other pills that he refuses to eat. Stick it in a marshmallow.

These say they have 'natural flavor' and they smell very mildly like garlic and yeast. My dog will eat them like they're a treat.

I had not noticed a smell, but after reading your question got one out and smelled it. Very very faint smell , maybe like baby powder. These have been a life saver to me, they are the best thing I have bought. My dog is 55 lbs and cannot use back legs, so has no control. I put one of these under him and it pulls urine away from him so he stays dry plus has never leaked and I'm on my 3rd order. As far as smell, I have a very sensitive nose and have had to give other products away because of scent and I did not notice the scent of these until I put it right on my nose. Every other pad I have used has leaked, it urine has been all over my dog. I highly recommend these . Hope this helps you.

they are not really a "rawhide" - these are recommended by the vet (my vet gave me a free sample for my 9 week old min pin when i first got her) they are great and dont leave a mess like a rawhide - never leave a dog or pup alone with any type of chew "stick" -but great item

No, ours didn't have any smell to them. My mother in law would notice that kind of thing too. Maybe you got a wrong batch? :o( That's terrible though.

Hello! While reviewing this product we found that it contains no additives for flavoring. The reviews indicate that it has virtually no taste.

They are NOT flavored, the only way I can get it down our dog's mouth is OPEN and SHOVE!! Not nice but this medicine is keeping our 10 year old dog healthy.

My dogs love the peanut/honey and the yogurt/apple. They both have a nice smell- like a cookie. My son actually tasted the yogurt/apple ones... Weird. He said it was not bad but not very sweet. Lol My dogs say they are awesome! I like that they don't cause gut issues and they don't stink like fake meat.

I do not believe the chew toy is flavored. It does not smell like a bad rubber and really doesn't have much of a smell, which leads me to believe it has little to no taste. It doesn't appear to taste bad as my dogs play with it all the time.

Unfortunately my dog would not play with his Goughnut or his Goughnut stick. I discovered why after tasting them. They have an incredibly bitter taste. I washed and soaked them in various cleaners, which helped some, but they still taste bitter. Maybe that is why they are said to be indestructible.

No they are not. However, I do believe there is a scent to them that is attractive to dogs to encourage them to use the pads. I cannot smell anything.

Sadly, yes! They can really be pretty stinky....but they're still the best thing I've found to keep our dog busy for a long period of time without upsetting her stomach.

I don't know what the flavor is . It smells like dog food . But I have had friends dogs over and never had one turn away from it they all like to eat it .

I got 2 bottles of these for my dogs and they would not eat them. I gave the 2 bottles to a friend because her dog loves them. She says they help her dogs, but they are quite old. I wouldn't imagine that a puppy would need these.

I think so. My dog needs a bit of coaxing to start chewing on these. But once she starts she finishes it!

My dog doesn't like them at all, but they have really been helping her. I break them in fourths, and then act like either a toy or I am going to get it. She gets protective and eats them so that we don't get them. I tried putting them in her food, even broken in small pieces, and she was still able to pick them out. Cream cheese, as others have mentioned, does work with these, but not always. I normally give her pills in velveeta cheese slices (softer and gooshier than other brands), but it doesn't work as well with these. It's probably a bad method to "tease" her into eating them, but it works. I then always praise her like crazy and sometimes give her one of her favorite treats afterwards.

I don't know. They smelled bad & my dog didn't like them. I gave them away to someone who's dog likes them & is doing well on them
