What is a Bully Stick?
A bully stick is a dog chew that can be given simply as a reward or treat, or to help clean teeth and satisfy your dog's natural urge to chew. Bully sticks are made from 100% beef. More specifically, beef penis or "pizzle."
This depends on the size of your dog and the size of the bully stick. Definitely not more than one per day, but possibly less. The calories from bully sticks (and other treats) shouldn't make up more than 10% of your dog's diet.
Compared to similar chews made from rawhide, bully sticks are very safe since they're easily digested and won't cause blockages. However, we'd still recommend at least loosely supervising dogs when they're chewing bully sticks.
Since they're made from 100% dehydrated bull penis, bully sticks have a distinctive natural odor. However, you can find low odor or odor free bully sticks that are washed and dried in a particular way to reduce the natural smell.
