Why the Brand Matters When Buying Your Dog Chews We partner with local farmers, sourcing our natural products from responsible sources and help support communities around the world. We use a very simple manufacturing process by using only fresh ingredients, cleaned with water and oven-baked to pawfection. We use human-grade food testing to ensure our chews are free from bacterial contaminations and safe for your pup to enjoy. Read more We hand inspect and package every single chew. Any Chew that does not meet our size specification gets donated via our Gnaw it Forward program. We help keep your pup occupied and entertained. Dogs of all shapes, breeds and sizes LOVE our tasty chews and will remember exactly where you store them. We are proud of our growing family-owned company and happy to be able to support jobs in our local community. Thank you for your business! Read more What are bully sticks? Bully Sticks are single ingredient beef dog chews made from the pizzle tendon of the bull. They serve as a natural alternative to rawhide dog chews made with chemicals or manufactured dental treats made with unnatural flavors, colorings and fillers. We take the meat, clean it with water and roast it slowly in ovens for up to 72 hours until it turns into a hard chew for dogs. Where are Nature Gnaws Bully Sticks from? We source raw material from several beef producing countries around the globe including South America, Europe and the United States. We then bake our chews in our plants before they are carefully inspected, lab tested and packaged in our Deerfield Beach, Florida headquarters. We are proud to have such a wide impact on communities and families around the world. How long do they last? Just like every dog has a different personality, every dog has a different chew strength. If you have a large breed or aggressive chewer, we suggest our large or jumbo bully sticks. For a smaller breed or light chewer, you should try an extra thin or small size. Why do they smell? We keep our products natural by not adding any chemicals to try to remove the odor. Since they are single ingredient beef chews, they do have a bit of scent to them. Even though us humans don’t love it, Dogs go crazy for them! Read more
