Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between extra thick and braided for large dogs?
The extra thick bully stick offers resistance through increased thickness, making it ideal for persistent dogs who love to chew for long periods.
The braided bully stick creates resistance through braiding technique, offering a different texture. For large dogs who chew more intensely, braided usually lasts longer.
How do I choose the ideal bully stick for my large dog?
For large dogs weighing 55-77 lbs, these premium dog chews in 6" extra thickness are usually good enough. For giant dogs over 77 lbs or those who chew very intensely, the 12" options offer better value and duration. Also consider how your dog typically behaves during chew time.
How long should a bully stick last for a large dog?
A quality bully stick should provide:
- 6" Extra Thick: 45-90 minutes for large dogs;
- 12" Extra Thick: 1.5-3 hours for intense chewers;
- 6" Braided: 1-2 hours of challenge;
- 12" Braided: 2-4 hours for the most determined.
How do I know when it's time to take the bully stick away?
Supervision is the key to keeping your dog safe. Take the bully stick away when it gets too small - our rule is simple: if there's less than a fist-sized piece left, it's time to put it away. This prevents choking issues and ensures the experience is always safe and enjoyable for your big friend.
