My Lil Man! Donating Member | Bully Sticks Has anyone noticed if when your baby chews on a bully stick for awhile it makes them really thirsty?? Reeses got a bully stick tonight for a while and when I took it away from him he went his water bowl and almost drank it empty! |

| I haven't noticed excessive thirst with Bully Sticks in particular, but my guys seem to drink more after any extended chewing session. I guess they use up all their spit. |

| Loki drinks a lot to begin with, but yes chewing bully sticks makes him very thirsty. I'm sure other things would too, but that's all he chews for long periods of time.

| Mine get thirsty too. I give all the dogs their own bully stick but Kaya will lay and watch and as soon as Tinka gets up to go get a drink, Kaya will steal her bully stick. Then when Kaya gets a drink, someone steals hers and on it goes... |

| Mine do this too. They tag team one stick until it's gone, then start on the other one. Sammy just lies there and watches Loki chew until he gets up to get a drink and then she steals it. I think they like their sticks pre-chewed.

My Lil Man! Donating Member | Yea when I go home to visit my parents and all the dogs get a bully stick...Reeses will go hide his in my room in his bed and then come back and try to steal theirs. Its really funny. He's the baby but definitely rules the roost. The Big Man on Campus. Lol. |
