Highlighted Reviews

"These bully sticks are great. My dog loves bully sticks but I don't like the odor, so these are great."

— CH

"These bully sticks should be called bully STINKS! Bought these for the first time when our usual odor free bully sticks (Barklies) were out of stock. CANNOT imagine how this company and Chewy sell these as odor free. Yuck !"

Bottom Line

A decent alternative but the odor problem and size variations may be deal-breakers for some.
