Redbarn Bully Slices for Dogs, Highly Palatable, Long-Lasting Natural Dental Treats with Functional Ingredients, 9 oz. (Pack of 3) - Original Bully

My first bag of Red Barn Bully slices I bought last fall at local store. It was over $13 for just a regular size bag. I then found I could get a bag on Amazon for around$9 so I switched to buying from Amazon. I though that was a great deal. Then I discovered that you could get this 3 pack for $26.49 (that breaks down $8.83 for each bag) that's a great price and by buying them in a 3 pack it's food to stock up with. I have a 4yr old active male border collie and he just loves them. I give him a strip once or twice daily. He is quite a bust dog and these last him a while. I also gave bags away to different relatives who have dogs and they loved them to. I dog sit occasionally and those dogs liked them too-one is a senior border collie, the other an exuberant 2yr oldlab. The lab has multiple allergies including chicken and wheat-she was able to eat these without a problem despite fact that it contains chicken fat and chicken cartilage. She also has a genetic defect in which her back adult teeth didn't grow in and she had no problem chewing on them though when they got to be small to where she may choke on it, I took it away. I know some reviewers complained that the recipe was changed, I have not noticed any issues or dogs not wanting them over past yr I have given them out as treats and gifts. The packaging did get changed though. I also noticed that in each bag, there is about an equal mix of thick ones and thin ones which I find is kind of nice. I save thick ones when I give them to my dog to keep him busy and the thin ones for a snack/treat. The thick ones take him longer to chew. It's hard to find treats/rawhide that last. This product keeps him busy for a while, especially the thicker strips. I just opened a brand new bag and it had 17 strips in 9oz bag. The thicker strips are approximately 1/8"(2cm) thin strips=approx 1/16"(1cm). The strips are about 8"(21cm) in length with some as long as 9",and a couple about 7.5"). The width is about 2"(5cm) with some about 1.5"(4cm). I hope that gives some an idea of what they are buying. I would warn that if you smell the treats they do have an odor though not as bad as they used to(must be part of change in recipe some talk of). I would also warn that these treats may stain fabrics after they are moistened from dog chewing. I have noticed this staining hasn't been much if a problem since the change in packaging now that I think about it (again, must be change in recipe). My dog chews these all the time, on out bed, on our new furniture, on his blankies...I always have something for him to lay on in these spots in case they stain. I noticed prepackaged change, I'd have to treat the stained areas. Now, I seldom notice stain messes from treat and it comes out with regulAR washing. I would still recommend though that you anticipate it could stain, until you get used to your pet having these treats. I would also recommend that you keep plenty of water for your dog to drink when he has these treats. Always after my dog eats these, he goes and Getz a good drink of water. My dog is a very healthy 4yr old border collie. He has had no physical problems I've noticed related to these treats, nor have the dogs I have had in my care. I have had no reports from people I've given these treats to regarding any problems. They just tell me their dogs really enjoyed them. The package states "FREE FROM: wheat, corn or soy. Grainss&gluten. Artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. It also states "natural beef ear is our first ingredient. Natural source of protein. Natural source of antioxidants. " Package also states "MADE IN USA" and gives a Kansas address for redbarn. PACKAGE DOESN'T STATE THAT INGREDIENTS WERE GROWN OR RAISED IN USA. I know their is always concern over products made overseas, especially China and chicken products manufacred in china. That's why I mentioned about this being MADE IN USA. I for one don't buy animal treats made in China and try to only buy products made in the USA. The US has more regulations than in other countries it seems though I have found that just because a product is a US company or made in the US doesn't mean that it's ingredients are. I am a disable, retired nurse, so I monitor what my animals consume. My dog has enjoyed and tolerated these treats well with no adverse effects as had the dogs I have had in my cars when I have dog sat. I have not been able to find where the beef is raised, though I haven't investigated this intensely. Those that thus issue (pet treat products from out of the USA)may want to investigate this issue further. I for one have found Red Barn Bully Strips to be a very healthy, reasonably priced treat for my dog and would recommend it to others who need a healthy, reasonably priced chew treat for their dogs. Especially dogs that it's hard to find treats that will last more than 30 seconds. Again, all that I have stated is my observations and opinion and should be taken as such. Those that are really concerned should consult with their vetinarian on their dog's diet and what treats would be a good choice for your beloved animal. I personally don't have any children. My animals are my kids and I take their health seriously. I read labels and compare ingredients. I hope that everyone who reads my review finds it helpful.

Expensive, but great treats to keep the dogs busy for a few minutes, i wouldn't advise leaving them alone though, they can choke on the last bite, because well they are dogs, no sense haha. But they love them and are delicious

Awesome treats that LAST! They aren't too expensive and there's a good amount in the pack. Will order again!!

The Redbarn Bully Slices for Dogs are awesome and so affordable on here. They always arrive quickly, fresh and a good size. I have a two year old lab who absolutely loves these bully slices and has one almost every day. They are easily digestible, does not give him a stomach ache and he gets so excited every time I give him one. In my local stores, they are easily $15 a pack and on here it's 3 packs for $35. Such a great deal!

I swear my dog is part alligator, and she can chew one of these up in about 10 minutes, but oh my goodness she does love them!

Greay price and good quality chews for my dogs.

Redbarn’s Bullys are my dogs favorite. I love them, and my dogs are obsessed with them. I use them as rewards and chew treats. Bully Slices are thin and or thick, and can be long-lasting treats. Redbarn makes these Bullys from natural cowhide they start tough but soften as my dogs chew. There treats are tossed in bully gravy that’s my dogs go crazy for they love the flavor. I have purchased these monthly for awhile now. I have a large dog and very small dog and because of the size differences in the treats, I am able to give them both treats to enjoy from the same bag.

Very thick I give to my borderdoodle every night as a treat she loves them!

My chihuahua managed to fully chew through these, they used to be much thicker and hardier, these were very flimsy. Not good as I want him to chew it for a while not eat it.
