Z-Ridge bones are formulated and designed to naturally clean your dog's teeth and freshen breath better than any other edible chew bone for dogs. Z-Ridge bones clean with an exclusive ridged surface, longer cleaning action , great taste, and the optimal balance of natural ingredients. Check out these specific details and see the difference for yourself:

Exclusive Ridged Surface - As your dog chews on a Z-Ridge, the textured surface scrapes and cleans.

Longer Cleaning Time - Z-Ridge bones are made with a naturally firm potato starch. The controlled density of our potato formula means your dog chews longer and receives the cleaning benefits of extra chewing time. It's just like brushing your teeth longer and more thoroughly. Z-Ridge lasts up to 3 times longer than other edible dental chew bones.

Better Taste - Dogs go crazy for Z-Ridge bones. In side-by-side taste tests with other leading dental bones, Z-Ridge is chosen first more than 60% of the time. Alone, Z Ridge is eaten more than 90% of the time.

Wheat Free & Corn Free - Most other dental chew bones are made with wheat, corn or a combination of both, which can cause big problems for dogs with allergies or sensitivities. Our potato based formula is less likely to cause an allergic or diegstive reaction.

Natural Breath Fresheners - Z-Ridge freshens breath in two steps. First, ingredients such as clove, nutmeg, parsley, vanilla, and fennel seed freshen breath as a dog chews. Second, the naturally occurring cholorphyll in alfalfa concentate freshens breath and body during digestion.

Ingredients: Details & Benefits 

An all-natural product produced without chemical extraction. It contains highly concentrated amounts of vital nutrients delivered in a natural state for maximum absorption.

 

Alfalfa concentrate is an excellent source of:

Chlorophyll
Antioxidants
Phytonutrients / Xanthophylls
Vitamin K and B Vitamins
Protein and Amino Acids
Omega 3 and Omega 6 Fatty Acids
 
Chlorophyll - Alfalfa concentrate contains only naturally available chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is known for its ability to eliminate a variety of odors from breath, gas, body and feces. 

Antioxidants - Alfalfa concentrate contains a well-balanced, natural blend of mixed caroteinoids and mixed tocopherols, classes of antioxidants which function as scavengers of highly reactive, dangerous and destructive free radicals in both blood and body tissues. Reducing free radicals minimizes a variety of diseases and leads to a greater degree of overall health.
 
Phytonutrients/Xanthophylls - Alfalfa concentrate is a healthy blend of the phytonutrients luten, zeaxanthin and violaxanthine. These xanthophylls are vital to overall health, particularly eye health. They help to prevent cataracts and many cancers.
 
Vitamin K and B Vitamins - Alfalfa concentrate contains an excellent source of Vitamin K (phylloquinone), which is vital to the formation of red blood cells critical for clotting and strong bones. Alfalfa concentrate also provides numerous B vitamins such as thiamine, riboflavin, pyridoxine, choline and biotin which are important for vitality and overall health.
 
Protein and Amino Acids - The total crude protein content of alfalfa concentrate is more than half of the product weight. Rubisco protein (ribulose I, 5 biphosphate carboxlase-oxygenase) is the major protein. Rubisco has an extremely high concentration of essential amino acids and an overall balance of all the amino acids for maximum nutrition.
 
Omega 3 and Omega 6 Fatty Acids - Alfalfa concentrate contains a balanced mix of omega 3 linoleic acid and omega 6 linileic acid. Omegas are well-known for ensuring normal skin functions including healthy coat and reduced shedding.
 
Calcium and other minerals - Alfalfa concentrate is a good source of calcium, which is essential for proper bone growth, nerve transmission and muscle functioning
