Review on Nature Gnaws Premium Large Beef Gullet Sticks - 10 Pack Of Tasty Rawhide-Free Dog Chews by Sharonda Guzman

I ordered this along with the tripe twists. Both have been a huge hit with my dog and another pup we've been housesitting. They must smell great because the dogs get extremely excited when I pull them out, and on several occasions I've walked into the room where I left the bags to find both dogs sitting and staring at them hopefully. My only complaint is that it doesn't seem accurate to call these "chews." They are really more like crunchy treats. My dog is still a puppy and a very gentle chewer; he works on a rawhide for weeks before he can get through it, and beef pizzle sticks the same size as these treats take him days to finish. He downed these in a matter of seconds, though, and so did the visiting dog we're house-sitting for, who is smaller than he is -- in fact, she chomped them down twice as fast as he did. I'd be happy to consider them treats instead of chews, except that they really are very hard and I worry he'll ingest pieces of them too quickly and end up with gut obstruction. Because of that concern, I've been doling them out very sparingly and avoiding giving them to one dog while the other is nearby, which seems to encourage even faster chomping (I think he's scared the other dog will snatch it away before he can finish). By "small dogs" the company must mean "chihuahua puppies" because I can't imagine these functioning as genuine "chews" for any dog bigger than that. Whatever you call them, though, he loves eating them.
