"These are the worst bones I’ve ever purchased for my dachshunds. They splinter into super sharp small pieces and I’m afraid they will kill my dogs passing through their system. I would never recommend any dog family to purchase these."
Bottom Line
Avoid this product as there are more pleasant and safer varieties.
