Virbac has announced the launch of VeggieDent Zen, described as multi-functional chews designed for dogs who need a little extra help in daily relaxation.

The company says VeggieDent Zen provides the same dental benefits as VeggieDent FR3SH Dental Chews, but also includes L-theanine. 

L-theanine is an amino acid which Virbac says is known to positively influence GABA levels in the brain to help reduce anxiety and increase mental focus. According to the company, one VeggieDent Zen chew daily can help to calm and reduce anxiety in dogs whilst also providing regular oral care.

VeggieDent Zen is free from GMO corn, wheat, gluten and meat, and contains no colourants or artificial ingredients. The new chews also hold the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC) seal for tartar control. 

Claire Lewis, Product Manager at Virbac said: "Dental chews are a great way for pet owners to provide passive dental care at home. With VeggieDent Zen we are pleased to be able to offer pet owners a convenient, multi-functional approach to supporting their pet’s health and well-being."  

VeggieDent Zen comes in 4 chew sizes (Extra-Small, Small, Medium & Large) and is available from the veterinary wholesalers now.
