Can anyone attest to wholesale bully sticks / antlers??

  • How long would a 12" bully stick last the average Basenji? Mine would probably chew on it until it was completely gone and I would like to see how cost efficient they would be.

    Like I said, I get the 12" Jumbo ones. They last quite a long time. That said, my two have them all the time, so it is not such a big deal to them. In the beginning, they would chew them till they were just about gone, but as time when on, now they do not. If I tired the smaller/thinner ones, gone immediately.

    I get the super thick, braided 12 inch bullies. They last about 10-15 minutes. And I have 6 Bs.

    I don't use the braided ones, they really are thin ones just braided together. If you get the 12" Jumbo ones, I think you will see a difference. Mine will go throught the braided ones in less than 1/2 hour


  • I just bought Oakley a 50pack of bully sticks from the website pat suggested. Oakley get "sticks" now and they have rawhide in them, he loves them but I notice they upset his stomach but it keeps him happy and busy for point two seconds. I bought him a bully stick once as I read here it's te suggested alternative to rawhide but of course it was smelly and expensive. I also notice he got possessive over it… At any rate I think this is better for health and his safety and will keep him occupied longer. I may just have to work with him on not getting overbearing. Thanks for this link guys, got me motivated!


  • Rawhide is not good for dogs. It can swell up in their stomachs and cause problems. Bully sticks are great as are the moo tubes. They may smell and be expensive but they will last way longer and are a lot better for your dog. I don't trust pig ears anymore either as there were cases reported of salmonella with them. I stick to the bully sticks, moo tubes and antlers now.

    I absolutely agree with this !!

    And tanza, thank you for the link. I have ordered a 100 pack of the 12". It says that the braided are 3 regular combined and shaped together. But, they only have 6" braided. I'm looking forward to trying the "standard" 12 ". Thank you for the link and recommendation.!

    Bully sticks and those hollow stuffed bones (favorite is chicken) for this B. He had his first antler the other day and loved it, lasts a longg time too! Problem is that he had some blood in his stool the next morning and I think the antler was the cause of it.


  • I marked it. Have never fed them but need something since I have a hard time finding treats here that don't come from China that the guys like. I am waiting on a shipment of Salmon Ears (salmon skin dried ). http://www.salmonears.com/


  • Just to be clear, these are the ones I order. Have done both the odor free and regular ones. These are the 12" JUMBO bully sticks

  • Hmmm, It looked like those Salmon Skins would ship to Canada but unless you have a PayPal account they won't take your credit card and ship to Canada. I really wanted to try some of those….oh well.


  • Becca I can ask them and get back with you. I know the owner :)
    I could also send you a handful and if your guys like them, I can then, just let me know.

    Sorry Debra, are you talking to me? My name is Kristen…...Becca is my female's name! LOL. I emailed them yesterday and am waiting for a reply. Thank you for your kindness. I would really like to get a bag, I know the dogs here would really love them!

    Just seeing this, not sure how I missed it but I am so sorry. Yes, blessed with nearly 16 yrs… but that's more years to leave a bigger hole in your heart.

    I have seen the people who have dogs in the large crates weighed at check in. Only because it was a large carrier. Honestly I would carry her because it gives the appearance that they are lighter then they appear.
