"My dogs LOVE bully chews, which have gotten outrageously expensive. Saw these and they are actually cheaper than buying just the bully chews, and the bully chews wrapped around our ribs were HUGE! Pups LOVE them."

β€” Jenn

Then it obstructed his stomach and cost me over $1600 in dog icu vet bills and hoping he still gets better Do not give these to yo..."
