Hi all,
Can someone tell me about bullwinkles? I know what they are ![]() Is one or two 5-inch long bullies ok to feed a 14-pound dog per week as a treat? She goes through one of these in about 20 minutes. ~Scary

We are talking about bully sticks right?
Everyone has different opinion on what they are made from. I think they are made from beef tendons, not what everyone else thinks ![]() My top brands of bully sticks I like for USA sourced ones would be- -http://www.redbarninc.com/pc-15-11-regular-bully-sticks.aspx (regular plain bullies with some assorted styles) -http://www.bravorawdiet.com/ (VERY thick for heavy chewers!) -http://www.merrickpetcare.com/store/dog_treats_tendons.php (great company) I've seen bullies called pizzles.. steer wizzles... tendons... and just many different things. Just try to buy a name brand kind made in USA or Canada so you know what you are getting. They are alot better then rawhide... just as long as your dog isn't the type to break things into small pieces and choke on them I wouldn't worry. I fail how to see how a chew treat would cause kidney failure ??? Find a brand you like and stick too it. ![]() |

Too much of anything is never a good thing.
As treats, bully sticks are perfectly safe and healthy for your dog...if you can get over the initial 'EWW' about what the bully stick actually IS. ![]() ![]()

![]() They're a good alternative to rawhide for dogs since they don't splinter. A couple a week sounds perfectly reasonable. It's just like anything else....use in moderation.

My dogs go snakey for them, they just love them. They used to get one each every day when pups, now they may get them twice a week. They're not cheap but way better than rawhide IMO.
