Review on Premium Natural Beef Gullet Sticks For Large Dogs - Nature Gnaws Beef Jerky Chews - Simple Single Ingredient Dog Chew Treats - Rawhide Free - 9-10 Inch by Angie Thomas

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The dogs love them, but the smell is awful

I bought these for 3 Boston Terriers to chew at the office. No complaints on ingredients, packaging, or delivery. They seem kind of like a bully stick that’s been flattened out. My dog can’t have rawhide and he gets really phlegmy with bully sticks. TIPS: This is an outdoor treat only, and supervise your dog!The PROS - the dogs love to chew them, don’t appear to irritate my dog who has allergies to things, easy to break if you don’t want the dog to have a whole stick. They are pretty long.maybe 10”The CONS - they smell like straight up cow poop. The odor permeated the shipping bag and unfortunately the other item that was for me in that bag reeks of barnyard. My coworkers complained about the odor (thought a dog had pooped in the office) and even room spray wasn’t enough to knock it out. The dogs’ faces stink, their bedding stinks, and we had to toss the unchewed sticks outside so they wouldn’t stink up the office garbage. The other thing is that 2 of the dogs choked on the sticks.not the stick’s fault, the dogs just tried to swallow it whole. We had to pull one stick out of the choking dog’s mouth, and a second dog threw up while I was trying to help the first dog. She too tried to swallow it but was able to help herself. Dogs should be supervised when chewing these. My dog, who is the one I bought these for, was ok.no problems.I wanted to like this product but it’s way too stinky and is a choking hazard for our little 20lb dogs. I used 4 sticks and will be throwing the rest of the bag away :(

Pros
  • The sticks have a natural meaty aroma that dogs love
Cons
  • They may not be as effective at reducing boredom as other chew treats
