New Treats

Zukes All Natural Dog Treats

We just started to carry the Zuke's brand of dog treats and have found a great customer response and reaction to the product already!  Zuke's are all natural and made in the US which is becoming rarer and rarer these days.  We have started our offering by bringing in the Mini Natural's and the Hip Action dog treats.  Both of these treats are excellent training treats which can be used in the field with ease. 

 The Zuke's Mini Natural are cylindrical shaped treats that are about 3/8" in length and height.  We carry these in both the salmon and peanut butter variety.  The Zuke's Hip Action treats are rectangles that are about 1" in length and width.  We carry these treats in the beef and peanut butter flavors.  These are great because they have a measured amount of both Glucosamine and Chondroitin infused into the product.  Both of these substances are great at maintaining and improving joint health and mobility.  The beef trachea that we carry on the site are also a great way to utilize the raw form of Glucosamine and Chondroitin!

We are happy to add these products to our ever growing catalog of all natural dog chews and treats.  If you have any suggestions for other products people would find appealing please let us know!

Himalayan Dog Chews

Many of you have probably already noticed the addition of this product to our site and I wanted to tell you a little more about the product and why we have chosen to add it to our line-up of all natural dog treats and chews.

The Himalayan Dog Chew is a long lasting chew that comes in three sizes small, medium, and large. We would recommend the small size for toy breeds like Pugs, Pomeranian, Shitzu, etc....the medium size for beagles, terriers, poodles, etc... and lastly the large size for boxers, labs, and retrievers.The chews are made from boiling yak and cow milk, with lime juice added to separate the curds. Once separated, the remaining cheese is dried (a process taking about three weeks) and then cut into pieces for the chews. This treat is high in protein and is all natural, having no additives or preservatives, and the finished product is just simply put, a very hard block of cheese.

This chew requires dogs to work and grind on it consistently to have small flakes and pieces come off to be eaten. Our experience is that these chews are very long lasting and are a great addition to bully sticks, other natural chews, and Antlerz. We are sure that the Himalayan Dog Chew is here to stay and will make a great addition to the natural chews that we already provide.If you have any questions about this product or any of our others please feel free to contact us anytime!

Antlerz and Bones - Will They Splinter ?

This is my second post for the weekly question and answer series.

 We are commonly asked this question and wanted to share our answer in the blog.  Starting with bones; bones are a common dog chew and can vary from femur bones, shin bones, knuckle bones, etc.....they are safe to eat as a dog chew as long as they are not cooked.  Once a bone is cooked (like in soup) its likelihood of splintering and becoming dangerous is magnified greatly.  However, as long as the bone is a "raw" bone it is safe to chew.  I do recommend watching how your dog chews on the bone to make sure that they are gnawing as opposed to biting on it. 

Antlerz are totally different from bones as they are grown naturally on deer.  They are comprised of many different rings of mineral deposits.  The cross section of the Antlerz looks kind of like a tree trunk with many rings around its end.  The antler wears down gradually over time from saliva and gnawing.  An Antlerz chew should last any dog between 4-12 weeks.  They are an awesome chew and totally healthy and safe for your dogs!

Sam's Yams and Antlerz join already impressive list of dog treats

Richmond, VA – (PRWeb) – February 14, 2008 – Best Bully Sticks, a leading provider of dog treats and chews, is proud to announce the addition of two new products, Sam's Yams and Antlerz, to their already extensive product line.

Created from dried, human food quality fresh sweet potatoes, Sam's Yams are a great alternative to bully sticks.  Rich in anti-oxidants, the sweet potatoes used to make Sam's Yams are, like all of Best Bully Sticks dog treats, great for the gums and teeth of your dog.  Essentially a vegetable rawhide chew, dogs everywhere are already falling in love with these chews.

Also joining Sam's Yams on the Best Bully Sticks product line are Antlerz.  A 100% natural, mineral rich dog chew, these treats are made from deer antlers.  Wild deer shed their antlers once a year, and these shed antlers are gathered by ranch workers and turned into Antlerz chews.  A renewable chew that won't splinter and chip like rawhide, Antlerz show high concentrations of calcium and phosphorus, with trace amounts of iron, zinc, and sodium – all great for a dog's health.

"We're so happy to be adding Sam's Yams and Antlerz to our product line," Avrum Elmakis, president of Best Bully Sticks said.  "They're great products that we know our clients' dogs will love as much as ours do.  They're the next best thing to a bully stick."
