Perfect for my dog
My dog is delicate about the chews and treats that he will eat. I have tried several brands of bully sticks. What I like is the single ingredient and odor free benefits of these bully sticks. I refuse to buy anything processed for Max, my one year Collie. After our 6am morning walks, Max gets one of these. He goes ecstatic every time we get home knowing that these bully sticks are waiting for him.

Long-Lasting for our super, powerful chewer
Our super-power chewer thoroughly enjoyed his bully bones! Normally he powers through a bully stick in 15 minutes, but his bully bones lasted him an hour 20 minutes! He still had approximately a third of the 12 inch stick! Will definitely be buying again!

Great product and value for the money
Pattern Name: Half Ears, Size: 4 Pound (Pack of 1)
Dog loves these. I only feed her natural food and treats. These are very healthy. She's a strong healthy 2 year old puppy. Will be buying again soon. It is a great product for the money. They are chewed up in minutes because she loves them. They do have a bit of an odor but it's not overbearing.

A great natural treat option, my dog approves
Pattern Name: Full Ears, Size: 8 Count, Pattern Name: Full Ears, Size: 8 Count
Ingredients: Natural pig ears 👍, they smell smoky (my dog loves it, I don’t mind it), most of the time they are a decent size. My dog is half American bully and a heavy chewer so these are a great option for him. The quality is always good, and the bags I get are always fresh. These are a good treat for him when I have to sneak out for a bit or when I am leaving for work in the morning. I have purchased these several times. I also appreciate the eco friendly bag :)
