I wrote to Merricks and they emailed me back that Flossies AND Bully sticks are all made out of the same thing -- bull pizzle (penis). Sorry, but that is what your dog is eating. They just say tendon as that part of the anatomy is a tendon, and it sounds so much better.

(I copied their email into another thread titled Flossies and Bully Sticks, if you want to read their reply).

Tell the truth, did you ever imagine being in a conversation about bull pizzle much less buying them? Not me -- LOL! No wonder some think we dog-lovers are a little crazy.
