Greenies are products for cleaning teeth and freshening the breath. Also contains enriched essential vitamins and minerals. But for the exact ingredients you can go to:
http://www.greenies.com/en_US/default.asp?
Guranteed Analysis is as follows:
Crude Protein, Min.....52.0%
Crude Fat, Min..........4.0%
Crude Fiber, Max.......1.5%
Moisture, Max...........15.0%
Some do not like the product and would absolutely be against giving them to smaller dogs. I have had no problems with the product and my pups love them. It's a Personal decision as to whether you want to use this product.
I have no clue to what ziggies are?

I tried those Andrea, but purchased them from the vet for an "Outlandish" price and Toby liked them but Kallie stuck her nose up at them. Thank goodness the vet had given me a sample to try. So I was able to take them back.
I have heard a lot of good things about them on a couple of other sites though. And the vet said I was the first person to return them, his other clients say their dogs love them. But that is a great site you posted to purchase from..........BIG SAVINGS!!! Trust me!

I bought some Ziggies for Mia and she loves them! I didnt realize that they are reccomended for puppies at 6months and up, but she did really well with them! I stopped giving them to her now though until she gets a little older...I am a little unsure why they are for puppies at that age and not all puppies...Anyway! They sell them at PetSmart, here is the link!
What I did was just buy one so I can see how she liked them...They are like 99 cents for one!

Ziggies are like Greenies, but they are softer...I wouldnt say like rubbery, but kind of! They are hard to explain!! Mia loves them though!!!!!

You're welcome! I hope that they like them! Let me know how it goes and which you decide to get! I read on the internet that small puppies can choke on the greenies if they break off a piece big enough....And I saw with the Ziggies that once they start eating them they get kinda soggy...They are messy! But they keep Mia occupied for hours!

I've heard that about the greenies as well but I admit I have them and give them to my kids...........ever since the new ones came out. And I've not had a problem, but I do supervise them when they eat them and they do love them. But I'm always looking out for new things too........so ziggies are messy, huh?? Hmmm, both my kids are in long coats, wonder if that would create extra work for me with the messy part and their coats???
