It takes a lot of chewing to wear one of those down. I really believe that it was larger dogs that had problems with them.
Just my opinion...there are many here who will disagree.

Oh...and I asked my vet and she has never seen an issue with one of them. Not saying it never happens. I just do not believe it is common.

I am not convinced that bully sticks are without issues.

Same here. I've never given Sophie bully sticks. My issue with the bully sticks is what they're made of and the fact Sophie likes to kiss me around my mouth, but that's just me, lol
