Weird reaction to Bully sticks! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Well, by crikey! You wouldn't believe what just happened...

Having tracked down bully sticks since you all raved about them so much (they are called pizzles here by the way!) I decided that Bluebelle could try one tonight.
She is really, really quiet - but we just had a solid 5 minutes of barking at this thing and running away from it

I took a video, I'll work on getting it up on here ....but what the heck! She acted like an alien had landed in the kitchen!

LOL silly girl.
Give her a chance to get to know it and then I am sure she will
be a very happy girl.

She's telling the bullystick who's boss!!

LOL I just ordered some Bully Sticks for Ramsey. I'm anxious for them to arrive to see if it helps with his chewing. I plan on giving him one when we eat dinner because he spends dinnertime gnawing on the table leg every night. Hopefully this will cure that.

Based on this response, you will then be pleased when your bully sticks arrive. Sophie is a chewer and this solved the problem. She also wanted attention not before, not after, but just as I would put supper on the table. These keep her busy. You're going to be a very happy mommy!

That's good to hear! It will save us from constantly nudging him away from the table legs while we're eating.

Tia must be the only yorkie that doesn't like them. She ate a small piece of one and then went into the garden and threw up and she hasn't touched one since lol. Mind you I don't blame her they are made from a dried bulls penis!

A store I go to here calles them Pizzles also, had me confused at first I thought it was something different than what I was asking for. My girl has had hers a few days now and still won't touch it. I tried wetting the end and still no intrest.

HI all,
Just wondering, for those of you who have tiny furbabies, under 4 lbs. What type of bully sticks do you guys buy? Do you let them chew on 5 in ones, or the little dumbell ones? Thanks!

I got the 5 inch ones since that was what was recommended. Ramsey is a little over 3 pounds.

Oh, i agree. I thinks she was saying, "mummy dear, do you realise this is a gentleman part you just gave me to eat? How rude!"

LOL!! That is too cute.

Even so, my girl loves just em. I am certain your pup will enjoy them too

Ramseymom · 05-09-2009, 02:49 AM

I just tracked my package and it has been delivered, but it's at work. I go in Monday and leave directly for Harrisburg for a 3-day seminar, so Ramsey won't be able to try his Bully Sticks until Wednesday evening.
