About Bones & Chews

Bones & Chews is a family-owned business that specializes in providing premium quality bully sticks, jerky treats, and other natural chews for dogs. Founded in 2005 by John Smith, the company started in his garage with a mission to create healthy and tasty chews for his own dog. After perfecting his techniques for making irresistible bully sticks, word spread and demand grew quickly.

Within a few years, Bones & Chews moved to a larger production facility and expanded its product offerings beyond bully sticks to include a variety of chews made from high-quality ingredients. Their reputation for having some of the best and safest natural dog chews on the market continues to grow.

At the core of the Bones & Chews brand is a commitment to only using free-range grass-fed beef and all-natural ingredients for their products. They adhere to strict quality control and safety testing measures to ensure each chew meets their standards. While they’ve grown over the past 15 years, their dedication to satisfying dogs and pet parents remains unchanged.

The company offers an array of chews including bully sticks, jerky treats, bones, pizzles, dental chews, and more. However, their bully sticks remain their specialty – slowly roasted or dried to bring out more flavor and carefully hand stretched for maximum thickness and density. Bones & Chews aims to give dogs and pet parents more options while staying true to their purpose of providing the highest quality natural chews.

Customer Reviews

As a bulldog owner, I'm constantly looking for hearty chews that can stand up to my pup's strong jaws and relentless chewing. Most chews barely last 10 minutes before Charlie moves on, unfulfilled. But these bully sticks from Bones & Chews are different. The first time I gave Charlie one, he was hooked - gnawing, savoring, and working the stick for over an hour until it was gone. He'd lick his chops then look at me with puppy dog eyes asking for another! I've never seen him obsess over a chew like Bones & Chews' bully sticks. Now I get the 12-pack each month. It's the only chew I've found that satisfies Charlie's intense chewing urges while also giving him long-lasting enjoyment. I won't buy bully sticks from anyone else. Bones & Chews has mastered the art of making these chews irresistible for tough chewers like my Charlie.

Let me start by saying my doggo Emma has some serious allergies - she can't handle most jerky treats which is a bummer because she goes crazy for them! I was so excited that I can actually give Emma the Bones & Chews chicken jerky without any tummy troubles or itchiness afterwards. This jerky is clearly well-made with real, simple ingredients because Emma's sensitive system can tolerate it. I also love supporting a family-owned business that produces American-made treats. The jerky always arrives super fresh, which I appreciate since Emma is an odd ball who likes soft, almost mushy jerky instead of the hard dried stuff. This jerky has just the right tender chewiness that Emma obsessively devours. We're customers for life!

Dexter, my 2 year old power chewer, seems to demolish every toy and chew in his path. I bought him one of Bones & Chews' smoked bully sticks expecting it to last 10 minutes. An hour later, Dexter was still going at it! I couldn't believe how long this quality bully stick kept him happily occupied and content. Now I always keep a stash of Bones & Chews bully sticks on hand. Whenever I need Dexter to chill out and focus on an enriching, rewarding activity, I pull out a bully stick. He gets so captivated in gnawing and licking the thick sticks that he leaves my shoes and furniture alone - success! I appreciate that these bully sticks are made from free-range cattle. It's important to me that ingredients come from ethical sources, and Bones & Chews delivers.

Let me start by saying I scrutinize every ingredient in treats and foods I give my dogs. I'm delighted that Bones & Chews uses only premium ingredients in their bully sticks and other chews. My corgi Mason turns his nose up at any questionable filler-laden treats, but he devours these savory, all-natural bully sticks. You can tell they retain more of the authentic bully stick flavor because they're carefully dried to a perfect chewy texture, never overcooked. Mason is one happy pup with a Bones & Chews bully stick! Beyond quality, I appreciate Bones & Chews' commitment to safety - from sourcing to production. Mason has a sensitive tummy, but these bully sticks never upset his stomach. Knowing how rigorously they test for bacteria and other nasties puts my mind at ease. We give Bones & Chews chews paws up!

My poodle mix Piper absolutely destroys every toy I bring home. I used to buy her rawhide chews, but was worried about the risks if she swallowed pieces. Then my neighbor suggested Bones & Chews. I bought one of their smoke-cured pizzles, not knowing what to expect. Well, Piper set to work right away, chewing in pure bliss - no aggressive biting or shredding. Over an hour later, the pizzle was still keeping Piper calmly occupied. I'm blown away by how these natural chews satisfy Piper's intense chewing needs in a healthy way. She clearly loves the smoky, meaty flavor. I'll be getting Bones & Chews pizzles and bully sticks from now on because Piper chews them responsibly without getting choked up fragments. It's such a relief to find chews that make chewing relaxing for my power chewer!
