Lulu's first bully stick - YorkieTalk.com Forums

JDS · 05-19-2011, 09:32 AM

I was a little worried about allowing Lulu to chew on a bully stick. However, I figured as long as I supervise her, it should be ok. So, a few days ago I bought her one bully stick just to see if she would like it. Well, as soon as I gave it to her she looked at it, sniffed if for a minute & then grabbed it and bolted!

She didn't want anyone to take it from her. She loves it!

So now I've ordered a Himalayan chew from Ryan to see if she likes that. I can't wait to get it and see how Lulu reacts to it. It was so funny to see her overjoyed about a bully stick. It is the one thing she has shown such great interest in.

My boys LOVE bully sticks! Max can chew it for hours but doesn't really get anywhere because he eats it lengthwise

Cooper uses it more as an obnoxious tool to get Max annoyed when playing keep away. Either way, it keeps them entertained for long periods of time.

Just make sure it doesn't get too small for Lulu and throw it away at the appropriate time. Also, when mine are done chewing, I don't leave them out in the open. I take them and put them in zip lock bags so they stay fresh.

Good idea about storing in a ziploc. I never thought about that. I do plan to throw it out once it is on the small side. I am super paranoid about her choking on it.

I'm so paranoid that I get the 12" ones! Max just lays on the floor and chews across it. But, my boys are probably 3x the size of your Lulu

Just don't leave her unattended.

Bentley absolutely loves his bully sticks! I, too will take it away from him if it gets to be like 2 or 3 inches....I don't want him choking on it. I'd like him to try the himalayan chew one day...I assume the only place to get it is here or is it available at a pet store?
