Stuffed Gullets/Bully Sticks/Zukes

We wanted to let all of you know about new products in each of these categories. We have had MANY requests for our old stuffed gullets that came in 6" and 12" sizes and we are finally happy to be able to re-introduce them. They are lightly smoked and have a stronger consistency than the ones that are baked. Either way please let us know which you would prefer and we will try to accommodate you!

For our bully sticks we are re-launching sold older sizes as well! We are back in stock on 11-11.5" thick, 11" standard, 5" braided, and 12" thick bully sticks. Please work with us as our stock changes rapidly, if a bully stick product is available for purchase on the site it is available for sale.

We are also proud to announce the launch of a new flavor of Zukes treats. Zuke's Mini-Naturals have already been a big hit but we are now also carrying the Chicken flavor. Zuke's Mini-Naturals are now available in Chicken, Salmon, and Peanut butter; these are great all natural dog training treats!

Stay tuned for August's newsletter we will have some very exciting product launches that are sure to keep the dogs' happy. As always, if there are products out there that you feel would make a good additional to our catalog of all natural dog chews and treats please let us know!

Leona Helmsley, real estate magnate, has left 8 billion US dollars to Dog Care.  I couldn't believe it myself when I saw it on the news...but at this point it appears to be true.  Helmsley has directed that most of her entire fortune be left for the care and well being of dogs, even though this is pretty wide open I am sure that they will find plenty of worthy causes.  I think that this type of philanthropy will do wonders for dog care and rescue groups all over the US and in fact several hundred have already applied to the foundation for funding.  I am curious to see what the outcome of all this will be.

In case you are worried about Helmsley's own dog....don't!  In her will she left the dog 12 million for dog treats, food, and care, but a judge has recently awarded 10 million of that amount to be split between two of her grandchildren.  I thought that this actual data was also pretty interesting, the court has decided the following:

$190,000 (per year for ten years for Trouble), which includes his $60,000 guardian fee, $100,000 for ’round-the-clock security, $8,000 for grooming, $3,000 for miscellaneous expenses, $1,200 for food and anywhere from $2,500 to $18,000 for medical care.

Based on this data I would have to say that Trouble is living better than most of us are!
