Smokehouse100-Percent Natural Meaty Porky Bone Dog Treats, 5-Pack

My puppies love them but they cost too much

I don't know why I'm writing this review, shouldn't it be the dogs who review this? If so, I think my dog would give it a 5. Then again considering she likes to eat used socks, she's not exactly picky about what she chews on.From my dogs point of view, these bones are great. She'll sit and devour it as soon as I give it to her. From my point of view, these bones are probably a bit too small/weak for her. She's a 75lbs german shepherd. And she'll have the bone in pieces within 15 minutes or so. But, she'll sit and chew on the pieces for 1-3 hours. And she'll come back later and chew on them a bit afterwards as well. They do however make a mess on the floor. Bits of bone on the floor and bits of meat/skin as well. So be prepared to do a little cleanup afterwards. After she's finished that initial chew session, the bones are pretty clean though and wont leave any further mess.However, they are a really good value for the price. So if you don't want to spend more money for a bigger/thicker bone, I'd go with these.

My pit mix is an aggressive chewer. He ate two of these bones like peanut brittle. There are still shards of broken bone bits all over my yard. I’ll never buy this brand again.

These made my dogs vomit and poop blood. Thinking it was because one dog is very young and the other is very old, I gave the rest to my family for their dogs. Their dogs also had horrible diarrhea for several days and one vomited blood. This is scary!

These are a great price and seem to be a high-quality product. They have a very smoky scent and the dog seems to love the taste. However, the ends are chewed off pretty easily and leave a mouth-sized potential choking hazard. It really depends on whether your dog is simply a chewer or if they try and swallow things before they are broken up into smaller pieces. I definitely keep a close eye on my pet when I give her one of these.

These bones are great for LARGE dogs. I bought these for my small dogs thinking 8 inches was not so big. Boy was I wrong! They were so big for my 2 small dogs that when I gave them one they just looked up at me like "you've got to be kidding"! They could not even pick it up. I gave them to a friend who has a very large dog and that was a good fit.

I'll start by saying that my dog, a 6m old Bloodhound, loves to chew, devourer is more accurate, on these bones. However, she can be a bit picky about her bones but the 8 inch Smokehouse bones she absolutely loves! There's lots of meat on the bone and they keep her busy few a couple hours. The bones are very greasy so be prepared to have some place for you dog to chew these. I typically put her in her kennel until she gets it down to the nub. Outside would be best but still too cold for that. I keep a bag on hand at all times!

You can't use this inside the house. It is too messy and would mess your carpet/floor up. But when I give it to him outside he goes CRAZY. I have kept him busy for probably more than an hour at a vineyard tied to a tree and surrounded by kids and people. He would have been jumping up and down and barking if he didn't have it.
