Great. I just found out what Remi's bully stick is made of.

 

[KMARINO]

What? and what is a bully stick? A rawhide?

 

[Davidh]

Bully sticks can cause a chocking hazard and should not be used with bulldogs.

 

[cali~jenn]

Oh yes, bully sticks. haha Just some good ol protein.... ewe. I do agree with David, they are dangerous so feed them while being supervised at all times if you want to give them.

OMG you didnt know what they are made of????




oh and what's funnier is that they sell this 'protein powder' in a bottle which is the dust from when they cut them

The odor that comes from this is just as bad, if not worse.

 

[mcraven2]

Yup I made the mistake of buying those once. NEVER AGAIN!!! Yuck the smell alone is enough to never buy then again!

 

[Bella'sMom]

That is gross.....

 

[ChanelnBrutus]

Yup our pitbull Chanel even choked on one...If she can no way I'd give it to Brutus now.

 

[kim n the guys]

I bought some for the boys ONCE!!! The smell made me decide not to buy them again. Plus, I didn't like how they'd get slimy and then the boys would have long pieces of slimy bull pizzle caught in their mouth and I'd have to pull it out!!!

I agree...bully stix=no good. Tate almost choked on one last year; scared me enough to never try that again.

 

[ModernFemme]

How did they choke? They put the whole stick in their mouth or?? I thought this was a lot better than rawhides as no chunks ever break off. (Obviously the whole bull penis thing really freaks me out, though strangely ideal for a bull dog)

Seriously though, is any kind of bone safe? What should I be using?

Not safe, they make the end all gooey and try to swallow it. If they choke and gag they can easily aspirate when they vomit. Or swallow them whole and then you have a $2000 surgery to remove it. Don't take any chances!

Recommended toys, chews and treats are listed in out Great Bulldog Products forum. I can't link it because I am on my iPod. Large Nylabones, Kongs, deer and elk antlers are good ones. You don't want to give anything that becomes moist like rawhides, bully sticks or pig ears.

he'll probably love the Kong toy when you stuff it with some good stuff (peanut butter, his favorite treats, veggies, etc). If you freeze it, he'll be busy for hours.
