| Bully Sticks Anyone familiar with bully sticks know that they can be kind of expensive when you have multiple dogs but i have found a supplier of great odor free bully sticks made by true chews im considering buying them in bulk in the next few weeks i have attached some pics of the ones i will be able to offer. I know for a fact the i will be able to probaly slash petsmart price in half i plan to offer the thin and thick bully sticks, bully twists, braided bullies,bully barbells and 2 and 5 lb. boxes of bully end pieces. I have attached some pics of the products that will be available i will also be able to get red barn products but i prefer true chews because they are odor free and i will be able to offer much better pricing with true chews where as red barn does have low odor but thats just my particular preference and best of all they are 100% natural with no fillers and they are made in the U.S.A.(Iowa). Anyone interested contact me for quantities and pricing. I dont have a dedicated website for these as of yet because i want to see how things go with them 1st before having one made but i do have an authorize.net and paypal accounts. Thx |

| That's one thing I'm yet to see in a petshop. Can I please have more info? (I still don't know if I could actually feed them to the girls though- given what I've been told they are !!)

| My dogs all love them they go crazy anytime they see me grab that bag and i have seen a significant improvement in their teeth since i have been using them. I actually use a combination of thing for dental care but these treats are a big part of it. Most people that have experience with bully sticks im sure have ran across some that smell its not that bad but these are completely odor free which is even better they dont last as long as antlers of course but only one of my dogs will chew antlers and its not because they were exposed to bully sticks 1st because i tried antlers at least a year before i tried bully sticks they bullies just seem to be irresistable. I dont have definite pricing at the moment on all types and sizes but i know the thick 12" sticks will be around $5-$6 per stick compared to petsmart...same brand only difference is they have the regular sticks that are 8.99 per stick the sticks i get will be much thicker and last at least twice as long..Lower pricing for larger quantities and shipping will be available. If anyone has any particular bully sticks in mind and quantities needed jsut let me know and i will get back to you with pricing. Thx Definition Bully sticks are made from bull or steer penises. Some retailers label them "beef tendons" or "dried muscles." This is technically correct, since the penises of steer and bulls contain both muscle and tendons, but all bully sticks are made from animal penises. This is sometimes referred to as the bull's "pizzle," with bully sticks being labeled as "dried pizzle." As a rule of thumb, if an edible dog chew is long, brown and looks suspiciously penis-like, it's probably part of a dried bull penis. Owners repulsed by this can choose braided bully sticks, which don't resemble the organ they're made from. Healthy Chewing — Naturally There are many reasons why we give our furry family members chews and treats. Of course, the foremost reason is to show them how much we love them. Whose heart doesn't leap when their dog's tail wags with joy? But there are also some very practical reasons for giving our dog chews and treats on a regular basis. Chewing Satisfaction — Sometimes your pooch gets bored and chews on things she shouldn't or maybe she barks and annoys the neighbors. Chews are a good way to help make sure that your dog is occupied and happy. If she's chewing on long lasting chews and treats, she's guaranteed to be entertained. Dental Care — Chews and treats can be used to toughen your dog's gums. Also, chewing helps scrape plaque and tartar deposits from his teeth. And, of course, the more he chews the white and brighter his smile will be. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Where are they made? Target recently started selling bully sticks, but they are made in China and I don't have any confidence in their products yet. I'll only use ones made in the USA. By the way, it's against forum rules to "review" a product you are selling. See this thread, http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...rum-rules.html. Also, before you can sell in the appropriate forum, you must be a donating member.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I think you can use them at 12 plus weeks, just make sure you get them from a reputable source. Young puppies love to chew! Another option, I boil about an inch of water in a measuring cup in the microwave and then put the tip of the bully stick in the boiling water for another 30 seconds. I run cool water over the whole thing. If there is any salmonella on the bully stick, this should get rid of it. It softens the tip and brings out the smells, so Joey likes it better.

| I agree with Nancy i would say 12 weeks also i just got an order in of the braided and jumbo bully sticks today however if your dog is young i would recommend the braided sticks they are 3 regular size sticks braided into one which would be better for a younger pup IMO however the jumbo sticks are really thick so there is no way a pup or even grown yorkie could swallow it whole but as with any other chew supervision is always recommended also the bully sticks i sell are completely odor free so thats one less worry if you dont like the smell. If you need any other info concerning the bully sticks i offer feel free contact me. Thx |

Zachary's Mom Donating Member | I love giving my kids these things but they always end up fighting, even though everyone gets one. I just broke up a "disagreement" this morning between a Chihuahua, a Japanese Chin and my Terrier/X over ONE of the probably 15 chews strewn around the floor! Louise |
