Top Dog Chews - 12 Inch Standard 12 Pack Bully Sticks, Long Lasting, 100% Natural Beef, Free Range Grass Fed, High Protein, Supports Dental Health Dog Treat, 12 Pack

All our dogs love these bully sticks; they’re the canine equivalent of baby pacifiers.

I pretty much am going to copy and paste my other review because I bought two different brands and the results are the same. I noticed there were two options when I got my bully sticks. I bought both. There wasn't really much of a difference in my opinion between these two brands. They worked the same, the price was the same. The only difference was there was a 5% discount on one and the other had a 10% discount. However, ultimately the price was similar. I can't taste it, but my dogs devoured it. It should be one ingredient which is the pizzle but tbh I didn't look into it to make sure. I mean, you can see what it is. They do clean the teeth very well which is why I buy them. We tried brushing the dogs teeth but found these work better. Ok so I did change a little bit, but the main body is very similar.

I have a Great Dane mix who is definitely a power chewer. She's very well behaved and doesn't ever chew on things that she's not supposed to, but I have had a really hard time finding THICK Bully sticks that actually last more than 5-10 minutes for her. I always buy 12" Bully sticks for her because it's usually more cost effective to buy the 12" ones and cut them in half and just give her half at a time, but I was amazed that these Bully sticks are so dense that I had to use a hack saw to be able to even cut them up! Nothing else even made a dent in them, and I tried everything else I could think of first, but even the hack saw blade started to struggle with the last couple in the bag. They don't have a strong odor, granted I don't expect them to have zero odor, considering what they are, but I never notice they have any smell unless I'm just opening the bag. I've seen some reviews complaining about the varied sizes in thickness between each of the sticks they got, with pictures as evidence, but I call bull. Every single one of the sticks I got weighed within 5 grams difference of each other, and when I looked into the bag and it appeared some were smaller than the others, all I had to do was pull them out and flip them over. The other side of the stick always ended up being even bigger than the others, so if you determine the size of the entire stick just by looking into the bag at one end of each stick, you're assuming every stick is somehow magically an even, uniform shape and size without actually realizing these are a natural product made from another animal, and every stick is a unique shape. I guarantee that every single review that complains about uneven sizes with pictures only showing one end of each stick, would have nothing to complain about or any picture evidence if they simply took the time to take the smaller looker sticks out of the bag and flip them around. Every stick I got that has a smaller looking end had a flared out end on the other size that was bigger than all the ones that looked bigger at first glance. Even after cutting each stick into 6" pieces, my power chewer not only didn't finish one of the halves in 5 minutes like every other Bully stick I've given her, but after 45 minutes of hard core chewing, she had had enough for the time being and still had almost half of the 6" piece left to come back to later. I've spent thousands of dollars trying everything from top name brands to off brands on too many websites to count, and THESE Bully sticks are the BEST, LONGEST LASTING Bully sticks I've found. My search is over, I couldn't ask for anything more, these sticks are exactly what I wanted in a Bully stick. My girl LOVES them, and one stick lasts her DAYS, not minutes. They've got a new customer for life. It took my years to find them, but now that I have, I'll never waste money on a different brand again. I couldn't ask for anything more.

During the bully stick shortage of 2021 I have gotten desperate and have tried 5 brands now as my beloved 36 inch RedBarn bully sticks are no where to be found. Universally there is price gouging and questionable quality control and as a vet it makes me very nervous but so far thankfully my Borzoi has not had any ill GI effects from our off-brand adventures. A RedBarn 36 inch stick could last him 5-7 days with intensive chewing periods. The odor was only gross on his breath or if you had your face right next to his as he was chewing. Every other brand REEKS, the box it comes in REEKS, and they are greasy and are much smaller in diameter and MUCH shorter in longevity. A 12 inch one of these lasts about 10 minutes. Unfortunately, a safe digestible chew is needed for most dog's emotional health so with many misgivings I have ordered 12 inch versions here and on ebay, 20-24 inch versions on amazon and ebay, and of all of them, these get a C for odor compared to F's for everyone else and are the same as everything else as far as longevity. None of these brands unfortunately give clear information about inspection and bacterial testing and quality control like Redbarn does

I love the price. I like the fact it is a 12 pack vs buying individual at every pet and farm store locally. Regarding their scent I want to be clear that I have a large dog and we live on a small farm where we can have STINKY food so I like the scent and it is strong. These are very oderess and I would NOT have them in an apartment or around my not pet friendly family. For me I like the odor and can put the stick in a treat bag and have a dog following me for hours and then I give her these as a snack. I feel the quality is high and they are a GSD first pick. I would say these bully sticks are also more "compact" than other brands I have bought. Small but potent. 200lbs bite pressure makes these go in about 10 min each.

I’ve been buying these for about 4.5 years and the last few months have noticed a massive difference in the size of the sticks. My dogs love them but it’s annoying for the price to see them shrinking over time.

Great batting made in the USA!!!!

Fairly good value for pack size especially if can catch on sale. All natural with no chemicals a definite plus. My dog loves these and I have bought previously unfortunately this batch there were a couple thinner sticks and some that looked irregular which reduced her chew time. Will try again to see if it was an off bag.
