Best Bully Sticks Launches PureBites Dog Treats

Cheese PureBites

We are happy to announce the arrival of PureBites. These treats are made with only 1 ingredient, either beef, cheese, or whitefish. They are freeze dried which locks in the flavor and preserves the natural nutrition and freshness. These treats are great for training treats because they can be easily broken into smaller pieces. They also only contain a few calories per treat!

These dog treats are made in the US and come in convenient resealable pouches.  We actually catch ourselves snacking on the cheese flavor from time to time.  Purebites are a customer, so please be sure to let us know if there is something that you would like to see us offer.  Make sure to check back regularly, as we are adding new chews and treats on a daily basis!

Bully Stick Alert: Bully Sticks or Buffalo Sticks from India

Please know you sources!  There is now a huge influx of "bully sticks and other natural treats" coming into the US market from India.  Several private labeled brands in the US are advertising these products as free-range, grass fed, and all natural.  The Indian buffalo market (not even beef) is unregulated and has several health concerns that we will discuss below.  Several companies have approached us, from India, offering lower costs of raw material, but we are committed to a high quality natural product; so we have decided to use only free-range beef from Brazil for our chews.

The bully sticks that we sell are only from cattle considered “green cattle” as they are not given hormones or fed corn, which cattle are not accustom to.  Our cattle graze freely on open grass fields and grow naturally. Products from India are almost always sun-dried, not baked and are not regulated like the bully sticks we offer on our site.  Although, it is much cheaper to sun dry bully sticks and other natural treats, the bad outweighs the good.  Our bully sticks are vertically baked to drain any residual liquid from the product.  Sun dried product is many times laid horizontally, out in the sun, so residual liquid remains in the product. This product typically has a high level of odor to it (a urine smell), or a chemical added to it to help with the smell.  There is also higher potential for diseases, such as foot and mouth disease, and the finished product is routinely affected with bacteria because the products temperature during cooking is not well regulated.  Also, because they are exposed to the environment, there is a great chance of bugs.  Although our treats are sometimes more expensive, the quality of the product remains high, and you do not have to worry about any of these issues with our products.

Many people ask why not make bully sticks from North American cattle?  The reason for this is that not only is it expensive, but most of the cattle in the US is kept in feedlots and encouraged to grow at a much faster rate (growth hormones) than is natural.  In addition, the US has very little grazing land, which forces farmers to over populate grazing areas.

Prior to purchasing any bully stick products you should first ask your pet store or online vendors the country of origin for their bully sticks and treats.  Don’t worry; they are legally obligated to inform you. We think your dogs’ health is most important, which is why we pay close attention to these types of details and only offer products that we feel comfortable feeding our own dogs.

Best Bully Sticks Launches New Lamb Lung Dog Treats

If your dog loves Baa Baa Q's or lamb treats they will be sure to love our puffed lamb lung. These treats are high in protein and low in fat and help provide the energy that your dog needs. These treats are also great for puppies and older dogs because of their soft, melt in your mouth consistency. They are great for training treats because they can easily be broken into smaller pieces. They are from US lambs and are processed in a USDA approved, human grade facility. These come in either a 1 lb. or 2 lb. resealable zip lock bag.

We cut these in thinner pieces than a typical lamb lung on the slicer so they won't be as thick as others, but there are more of them in the bag!

Organ meats like lamb lungs are extremely high in nutrition and protein like taurine so they make great healthy options for training treats!

Please make sure to checkout our growing selection of Lamb Dog Treats primarily made from US free ranging lamb; so far they have all been a hit!  As always, if there is something you find out there that you would like us to carry please let us know and we will look into it!

We love getting bark-mail from happy customers and love hearing their wonderful stories. As always, we are so lucky to be able to to give deserving dogs some bully stick chew joy! This story was sent over by a dog owner's friend, it was so heartfelt that we wanted to share it with you. This is a story of a proud dog owner and a happy go lucky husky with his Curly bully sticks.  It reads:

Dear Best Bully Stick Team,

I am actually sending in this photo on behalf of my friend, Jennifer, who volunteers at a Husky rescue and adopted a blind miniature husky couple months ago.

His name is Cash and he is a miniature siberian husky.  Both him and his brother were a product of bad breeding and both had distemper as puppies.  Fortunately both him and his brother survived and was pulled out of the shelter by the rescue.  Jennifer fostered both puppies who were visually impaired.  Unfortunately Tango (the brother) started having multiple seizures and his condition got so bad they eventually made the tough decision to put him down.

Cash survived and is doing really well in Jenn's care.  I took these pictures of when Cash visited our office where Jenn and I both work.  That day our package arrived so I divided the bully sticks and put them in a bag.

I wanted to send a few pictures in so you can see how happy Cash is with the bully sticks!  :)

Thanks,
Wendy
