Author: Best Bully Sticks

We have started to look seriously into two new kinds of chews and are very excited to be carrying both of them in 2008.  Although we specialize in bully sticks, we feel like they will make a great addition to our dog chew selection and offer plenty of quality chewing time for your dog(s). 

 The first chew that we plan to offer is the full line of Sam's Yams products made by Front Porch Pets.  These chews are made from sweet potato and have ridges cut into them.  They come in different sizes depending on the size of the dog and last quite a while.  We have tried them with our in house taste testers and they give them two paws up! 

 The second line that we will be launching will be Antlerz.  These are deer antlers that have fallen off of deer naturally and then cleaned and sold in various sizes.  They are rich in all sorts of minerals and are extremely long lasting chews.  If your dog is going through their bully sticks too quickly this is a great alternative.  

 Please contact us with any questions about the new lines and let us know any feedback that you have.  We look forward to continuing to bring you the most exciting all natural treats and chews on the market. 

 Avrum, Best Bully Sticks

With all of the options available for dog chews and treats both online and at your local pet store, it's hard to know which one is your best option. Which one will your dog not only enjoy, but will be healthy for them at the same time. It's not unlike picking out an afternoon snack for a small child. In light of the recent pet food recalls, many pet owners have turned to bully sticks as an all natural treat for their dogs. But not all bully sticks are created the same. Here are some things to keep in mind when picking out a bully stick for your dog.

There is a Difference in Quality

Bully sticks are made out of beef, and like all meat from cattle, there is a difference in the quality of the beef. The better the cattle are raised, the better the quality of the product from those cattle. Choosing bully sticks that come from quality, free-ranging cattle, like those raised in Brazil and other parts of South America, creates a superior bully stick than those produced in countries like India, China, and even the US.

Where They're Raised Matters

Cattle raised in countries like India, China, and the US are often raised in feedlots, where they are given antibiotics to stave off disease, and hormones to increase their growth at an unnatural rate. Cattle from these locations are also used to create bully sticks and other dog treats and chews. However, most of the cattle raised in Brazil and other parts of South America are free-ranging cattle, and the bully sticks created from them isn't subjected to the same hormones and antibiotics as those from the US, India, and China.

In addition to being the leading supplier of cattle raised in a free-ranging environment, Brazil and the rest of South America have been recognized as the world's number one source of "Green Cattle" for years. The bully sticks, and other all natural dog treats and chews, created from these cattle are much healthier for you dogs.

Recalls Are a Factor

When the pet recalls swept through the US, many people turned to bully sticks because they were lead to believe that there were no recalls associated with the treat. This is only half true. While bully sticks, and really all treats and chews for dogs, from those cattle that are raised free-range like those in South America were free from the sweeping pet recalls, those created from cattle raised in the US, India, and China were still subject to the same pet recalls that caused panic amongst pet owners.

Do the Research

The best advice for finding the perfect all natural dog treats and bully sticks for your dog is to do some research. If you're buying from a store, look at the label and see where it comes from. If you're buying from an online retailer read their product description to see if they list where their bully sticks come from. If they don't, contact the company and ask them. Don't settle for less when it comes to picking out a bully stick for your dogs.

This article will highlight just a few benefits of The Bully Stick, an increasingly popular, all-natural dog treat.

Unlike most dog treats, Bully Sticks are 100% all natural. And since they contain no chemicals or preservatives, your dog is assured of receiving a “clean” and healthy pet treat. Besides being totally safe for your dog, they are also fully digestible and a great source of protein.

The Bully Stick itself is a bull’s penis, which is usually either dried or smoked. The most efficient way to prepare the Bully Stick is to hang it vertically, which allows all of the fluids contained in the penis to fully drain. Without these fluids, the finished Bully Stick remains odorless. Not all manufacturers prepare their Bully Sticks in this fashion, but they certainly should – the less odor the better for you and your home!

Compared to traditional pet treats, Bully Sticks last an unusually long time. Of course it depends entirely on the size of your dog, but it usually takes my Pug an entire week to get through one Bully Stick. For larger breeds, a Bully Stick could last anywhere between a few hours and a few days. Many dog trainers also use Bully Sticks as positive reinforcement treats during training sessions and to hold the dog’s attention over a long period of time.

In my vast experience with pet treats, I have never seen a dog that did not enjoy a Bully Stick! If you have any additional questions or would like more information on Bully Sticks, please contact us at www.bestbullysticks.com/home/bbs/contact_main.html.
