Bones & Chews Bully Stick 6" Dog Treats

I previously bought Bones & Chew bully sticks 6” for the past 5 years in small packages. They would last my dogs hours to the point they got tired of chewing and would only chew half the stick. they’ve seem to change the formula that your dog will chew the stick like it’s eating a cookie,10 minutes it done, medium size dogs, waste of money now. Chewy now has to do some research why their product has changed. Is it the larger quantities are dried out products and the smaller quantities in six packs are newer. For a small dog that doesn’t have the power to chew as hard as a medium size dog the product may be OK but for $60 a box it’s a waste of money to buy the larger quantities.

Both my dogs, 2 pomskies, love these. The only issue is that they don’t last long. They both get so excited for these treats and it gives them something to chew on. I have a little boy that is pretty picky, and he just loves these. They are both high energy, but when they get a bully treat, they just sit in the front room and focus on chewing on it. These always help to settle them down to allow me to get done whatever I’m working on.

I have gotten the 6 count before, and also purchased the 35 count. The 35 count sticks wear down much faster and are generally much smaller. I would much rather buy 6 6-count bags than save the small amount of money to buy them in bulk. Overall though, the product is great if you get the 6 count bags. They last my dog a while, but make sure to get a bully stick holder or at least a c-clamp if your dog gorges food and has no chill.

I have a Pitbull-German shepherd mix so I knew these chew sticks wouldn’t last long anyway. If you have a dog with any pit in them, you’ll quickly discover that “long-lasting” doesn’t apply to them haha. So I don’t blame them at all on that. The reason I rated four stars is because I read that these smell awful and they were right, these sticks smell like an uncleaned women’s restroom but my doggy tears them up and keeps her occupied for about 15 minutes tops. Still a great buy and would purchase again.

My name is Klaus and I'm a big boy even though I'm just 9 months old. I love writing reviews, and here's mine for these delicious sticks. I wish they lasted a little longer, but these are my FAVORITE treats and I love them more than ANYTHING in the entire WORLD (besides my humans of course). Speaking of them, they always say things like "That smells so bad!" and "It's like if rotting flesh and fish thats been sitting in the sun all day had a baby." I don't know what that means, but I personally give it TWO PAWS UP!!! Especially because I know my humans are going to keep buying them for me even though it makes them cover there snout with their weird upper paws.

He loves these bully's. We've tried other things and other bullys. He will give other things a few minutes then drop them and walk away. They'll lay there till I pick it up and trash it. With these he goes into what we call The Zen mode while working on it and chewing it up.

I saw the price and general good ratings and thought those could be a good buy. Do not do it unless you have no sense of smell. It smells like bad breath and cow manure. And my dogs mouth smelled like it and the whole room after a bit of chewing. Also typically one stick lasts a while. This stick was done within an hour and only because my dog got distracted with other things. It is burning my nostrils.

We've been getting a bag of these every 2 months for almost a year now. I'm not sure what happened, but the latest bag is unbearably stinky. We used to love the value of this product and low odor, but whatever happened recently with this product made us change our Autoship order to a different product.

My 17lb shiba LOVESSSS her bully stick. She is a puppy mill rescue and hasn’t had chews before, so I’ve been struggling to find something to really work for her. The majority of things we’ve tried she has devoured in minutes (any manufactured edible chew, pig ears, beef gullet/tripe sticks) or are far, far too hard for her mouth and are either disinteresting or make her gums bleed (skin chews, non-edible nylon chews, etc). Bully stick seems to be our happy medium. They start hard and are fun for her to chew but they aren’t sinuous in a way she can strip them apart (like gullet), it’s not crunchy and crumbly in ways that last only minutes and might hurt her soft tissues (like tripe and pig ear My 17lb shiba LOVESSSS her bully stick.

As she chews the bully stick it softens and becomes even more fun to chew on, stimulating salivation while remaining gentle on her mouth. She can pull the softened bits off but not destroy the chew. She’s been working on one bully stick for days and is making SLOW progress. This appears to be our happy medium and I’ll be stocking up on these. The one I received really doesn’t smell all that much even when it’s sopping wet. … more

This is my pups' first experience with bully sticks, and it was a positive one. These 6" sticks are too heavy for the small chihuahuas to carry around and too big for their small mouths, but after my Boston terrier works on one, the chihuahuas grab it. They love gnawing on the chewed ends. Even my older chihuahua, who doesn't have great teeth, likes them.. I am going to try a smaller size on my next order because these bully sticks were a big hit.
