Bully Sticks how many or how much do you allow your dogs to chew on them? I usually give mine once a month, a fairly long one . But i gave them anther just today beecause I found them at a decent price and they love them. But, is this too many to give ? |
Jackson chews on his *almost* every day. I buy the thick odor free 6" bully sticks from bestbullysticks.com (I order in bulk, best prices I've found). Occasionally he gets through a 6" in one day but usually he eats about 2-3" off of one every day. I would say it pans out to be more like 5 days a week. |
I didn't know what a bully stick was so I just searched for it. I can't believe that's what it's made out of. I thought it was a hoax until ALL the articles I read said what bully sticks were. Is that really true??? I could never feed my dog that! |

My puppy loves bullysticks & himalayan chews. She has one or the other in her toy basket at all times...whatever it takes to keep her from chewing on my furniture. She been chewing on her last bully stick for the past three days and has hardly made a dent in it. |

They are 20-30 calories/inch, so the 6 inchers are 120-180 calories. So one a day is WAY too much for an average sized Yorkie. 180 is about how many calories they should be receiving daily total... One a month doesn't sound bad at all. |
Bully sticks are highly digestible and are good for them. I give mine a 3" stick (hubby cuts the 6" in half with his table saw) about twice a week. Himalayan chews are the best "babysitter" in the world. Bully sticks they can eat in about an hour but the chews take them a couple days (and that's giving them a medium or large one!) |
Is choking a concern with the sticks or chews? Of course I assume when they are given, the babies are watched. I think Ian would love them, but I am nervous about giving them to him |
My 2 love them. I'm going broke keeping them stocked. I get the 6" and cut in half. They go thru 1 a day. They do a dance. They each take their peice and go off to chew. Then they'll switch peices and chew for a while and keep switching every so often. It's so funny to watch. And if one takes both the other will come and tattle. LOL |
Need to get some bully sticks for my 2. They love to chew on things. I usually give them the chew bone thingie's from Petsmart. I did get them antlers from another pet store (privitly owned). They really liked it. It lasted about a month. Kinda pricey, they were $6. each. I'll check out the website posted on the bullysticks. |
One other question, do you think when yours chews on the sticks they back off what they eat. I feel like when mine chew on the bones they don't eat as much so I take the bones away until I see they have eaten their food. |
