I was giving these to my dog for a few months. I noticed that every so often they seem to make her sick. She has a sensitive stomach so could just be her and not the product. The thing is, these say odor free but the smell is actually very strong and unpleasant. So much so that I wondered if they went bad or if they’re supposed to smell. My dog did love chewing on these every morning. For a bone to last 15ish minutes for my pittie was impressive!

These keep my small dogs entertained for awhile. They don't smell bad and there are a bunch of them per bag.

Yes these are expensive but my dog loves them! She gets so excited when she sees me open the bag

I always prided myself in being a good dog mom and treated my dog to a daily bully as per vet instructions. Last month, the vet informed me my dog had two fractured teeth with root pulp exposed. I was shocked - I asked what could be the cause and was told, "Oh, the BULLIES." Wait, what? The very bullies all vets recommend cause tooth fractures?! What a racket - vets recommend the very thing that will have dogs in (eventually) for expensive tooth surgery.I have since learned the hard way that if you can't chew on it yourself without cracking your teeth, they can't either. For 6 years he had a daily bully, and then suddenly two teeth fractures in his 7th year. What was the remedy for the situation? A risky $850 surgery under full anesthesia to extract the two teeth that were fractured.Today my fur baby is doing well, he recovered very quickly from the surgery thanks be to God - BUT if there was one thing I wish I could change is ever having given him any bullies at all. Odds are bullies will eventually crack your dogs teeth and they could be living in pain without you knowing it for years. Dogs instinctually hide pain very well. Eventually, fractured teeth will get infected and/or cause systemic disease.I've since traded bullies for longer walks, and my muppet is actually happier. Just thought if I could spare any of you the distress of having to take your otherwise perfectly healthy dog in for risky surgery, it'd be worth the review.One last thing - If I could change a second thing, it would be not giving my dog kibble. Since the surgery I have been cooking for my dog and its so ridiculously easy I wish I had done it since day 1. If any one is curious, here is what I do:Prep: I pressure cook several pounds of inexpensive drumsticks for two hours in a little bit of water. Then I take the drumsticks, bone and and skin and all, and food process it until its a smooth paste. I save the water (its mostly collagen) for either soups for myself or I add one or two Tbsp of this to his daily food mix. I overnight slow cook chicken breast in plain water with a tiny bit of salt. I save the pulp from carrot juices I make daily for myself, with occasional beet pulp & apple pulp also (make sure whatever you’re juicing is pet safe). I buy a huge container of organic fat free greek yogurt from costco just for my muppet.Recipe: I take 4 oz of the drumstick/bone paste, 4 oz of plain slow cooked chicken breast, 4 oz of juicer pulp (carrots, beets, apples, celery, zucchini, etc.) and 4 oz fat free greek yogurt. Mix it all together, and that provides 3 servings of food for my 45 pound dog. I store this in the fridge and give him 1/3rd at meal times (he eats twice a day). I freeze all of these “recipe components” in dollar store ziplocks, already portioned out in 4 oz measures. I thaw as needed the day before in the fridge and mix it all the day of. You can swap vegetables and protein sources as you’d like, as long as everything is pet safe! Sometimes I add mushrooms (use only supermarket kind!).Optional Supplements: In the above recipe, I add one Turmeric capsule from Puritan's Pride, 1/8 tsp of ginger, 1 tsp dried parsley (great source of apigenin!), and a pinch of black pepper for better absorption. Many of our kitchen spices are sooo good for pets, but definitely do your research here because there are definitely some big no-no’s like onions - never give your dog onions!Alright, I hope this helps someone out there avoid making the same mistakes I did.

My dog, a 6-year-old golden lab, loves these bully sticks, and they keep him busy longer than most dog chews. Unfortunately for me, my dog is kind of picky about chews and toys, but he's always keen for one of these, so much so that I buy them regularly for him.I've also been impressed with this company. Their bully sticks (I've ordered these, some of the twists, and thinner bully sticks at various points) are reasonably priced and, based on my own anecdotal experiences with these things, somewhat better quality than other bully sticks I've bought for my dog. They're a decent size and thickness, too.I've given these five stars because I've not seen a downside to these bully sticks for my dog. They're "odor free" in that they definitely don't stink as bad as they could, but they're still animal byproducts, so the smell cannot be totally neutral. It doesn't bother me, but a couple of friends have asked about it when they've been around my dog while he's munching on one.Of all the low-key stinky things my dog could chew on, though, these are a favorite in our household.

I have been purchasing these for my dog for the past year and a half. He is a Jack Russell mix and has a huge need for chewing, and these are perfect for him. He is able to easily digest this treat, and it lasts for a reasonable amount of time for my 40 lb. aggressive chewer. I like that my dog can usually finish these in one sitting as I don't like to leave treats like this out for too long. I give him one of these every day and it is his favorite time of day. There is some variability in thickness of the individual bully sticks, but they are all more or less the same thickness and the same length. I would say that they are low odor as opposed to completely odor free, but after having tried other brands, I think this is as "no odor" as you are going to get with this particular type of product. I have never had any trouble with staining with these treats when my dog chews them, and he mainly chews them in the house. I have tried several different brands of bully sticks, and the Jack & Pup bully sticks are my dog's and my favorite. I would highly recommend these if you have a dog who needs/loves to chew or even simply as a nice occasional treat for your dog.

Update 10/1/18: Dissapointed to notice, like others here, that in the past few months the quality has gone down significantly as far as thickness. They truly used to be extra thick. Now we pay for extra thick and get what seems to be regular sizes. The difference is so noticeable I double checked the bag and my auto ship order to make sure there hadn’t been a mistake. Very dissapointing bc she loves them but they don’t last her long at all anymore and now they seem extremely over priced. 👎🏼Our 9 month goldendoodle puppy loves these! She gets super excited as soon as she sees/smells it. I choose them over other brands because they are the thickest ones I've found and last much longer than regular ones I've tried and so far have been consistent quality. They also seem to be committed to safe and sanitary ingredients and processing which is important to me. Her older doodle friend down the street absolutely loves them too and is a much more aggressive chewer but it still lasts much longer than a normal bully stick size. These make our puppy so happy and gives us some peace and quiet!
