I bought this for my 90 lbs Catahoula American bull dog. He is very strong, and he broke it in few minutes. Moreover, he eats about anything, but he was not too thrilled with the stuffing inside. He didnt even eat it and went back to playing with his kong. So, honestly, my dog eats everything, its not worth the price. I would pay $2 for it, if I had too.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Chef Michael's Sirloin Steak dog food is candy for dogs. They, mine included, seem to snarf it up like kids love junk food. The problem is that it IS junk food. It's filled with ingredients that should be avoided but are likely to be highly palatable to dogs and may also be appealing to their owners. Doesn't Grilled Sirloin Steak sound yummy?

Let's start with the easy part, price. I feed my dog dry Eukanuba. To compare, Chef Michel's costs 14 cents an ounce vs. 9.4 cents an ounce for Eukanuba. It is even more expensive considering that it contains 2% more moisture than Eukanuba.

Now, what's the problem with the ingredients in Chef Michael's? Here's the list of what's in it:

Beef, soybean meal, soy flour, animal fat preserved with mixed-tocopherols (form of Vitamin E), brewers rice, soy protein concentrate, corn gluten meal, ground yellow corn, glycerin, poultry by-product meal, ground wheat, animal digest, pearled barley, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, salt, grilled sirloin steak flavor, dried green beans, dried potatoes, sulfur, Vitamin E supplement, choline chloride, zinc sulfate, ferrous sulfate, added color (Red 40, Blue 2, Yellow 5, Yellow 6), niacin, wheat flour, potassium chloride, L-Lysine monohydrochloride, manganese sulfate, Vitamin A supplement, calcium pantothenate, thiamine mononitrate, copper sulfate, riboflavin supplement, Vitamin B-12 supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, garlic oil, Vitamin D-3 supplement, folic acid, calcium iodate, menadione sodium bisulfite complex (source of Vitamin K activity), biotin, sodium selenite.

Here are the questionable ingredients, in order of volume in contents:

Soybean Meal and Soy Flour: the second and third largest ingredients in Chef Michael's. After removing most of the oil from soybeans by a solvent or mechanical extraction process, grinding the remaining flakes gives you "soybean meal." "Soy flour" is another byproduct of soybean processing. These are cheap sources of protein filler used to boost the protein content of dog foods. This type of protein does not provide the dog with as much usable protein as does fish, chicken, lamb, beef or other meats. All proteins are not equal in value to the dog.

Animal Fat: the fourth largest ingredient, according to the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO), animal fat in dog food is obtained from the tissues of mammals and/or poultry in the commercial processes of rendering or extracting. This means ANY animals, including the "4-D animals" (dead, diseased, disabled, or dying prior to slaughter), goats, pigs, horses, rats, roadkill, animals euthanized at shelters and restaurant and supermarket refuse. This is NOT a quality ingredient.

Brewers Rice: the fifth ingredient, is the small milled fragments of rice kernels left after milling whole rice. Although it has calories, it has little nutritional value.

Soy Protein Concentrate: what remains of soybeans after removing the water soluble carbohydrates from the beans. Similar to soybean meal and flour, this is an inexpensive way to boost protein, but contains a very low quality of protein.

Corn Gluten Meal: yet, another plant-based protein booster. Gluten is the residue remaining after corn has had most of its starchy carbohydrate washed out of it. It has little nutritional value, and is used mainly as a filler and binder.

Corn: an inexpensive filler with little nutritional value for the dog.

Poultry Byproduct Meal: a dry rendered product of slaughterhouse waste made from what's left of slaughtered poultry after all the prime cuts have been removed. This includes almost anything left after the actual meat has been removed: organs (the nourishing part), feet, beaks, undeveloped eggs -anything except quality skeletal muscle (real meat). Although, by-product meals are meat concentrates and contain nearly 300% more protein than fresh poultry, they are less digestible than chicken meat. Also, there is absolutely no control over the quality and consistency of poultry and other meat byproducts.

Wheat: See the comments for corn, above.

Animal Digest: a broth made of animal by-products that is usually sprayed onto the dry kibble to improve its taste. Although it cannot contain hair, horns, teeth, hooves and feathers, except in such trace amounts as might occur unavoidably in good factory practice, it is made of unspecified parts of unspecified animals. As with animal fat, there is no control over quality or contamination and may include "4-D animals" (dead, diseased, disabled, or dying prior to slaughter), goats, pigs, horses, rats, roadkill, animals euthanized at shelters and restaurant and supermarket refuse.

Artificial Colorings: solely to appeal to the dog owner. These ingredients are of no nutritional value and are controversial.

Menadione: a controversial form of vitamin K linked to liver toxicity, allergies and the abnormal break-down of red blood cells. It is unnecessary in dog food.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program If my dog was writing this review he would give Chef Michael's dog food five stars. He loved it and wolfed it down. The kids even used pieces of the food for training games and he eagerly participated.

Unfortunately, the dog and I have a different idea of what smells good. Large amounts of soy give my dog (just a year old) horrendous gas. I actually didn't read the label before I fed it to him which was completely my fault. I assumed that a dog food marketed as gourmet would have better quality ingredients.

It clearly is very palatable to dogs. Owners will need to look carefully at the ingredients and decide if it works for them.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Our dogs love this tasty dog food. However, our dogs have self-regulated their eating for years. We can leave food out, and they eat when they want and have remained fit and trim. However with this food, there is no self control. They finish a bowl at a time and compete to get to the bowl. So we are back to our previous dog food so we can get the weight back down and go back to the self-regulated eating. I knocked this food by a star for its artificial ingredients including food coloring (I guess the colors are more for the owner's enjoyment), and another star for the large, chewy chunks which are not good for their teeth. Clearly a mass-market product. Folks that like to buy leaner, natural foods for their pets should avoid this product.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Go to Brenda Frank's excellent and compelling review and it is what I agree with completely. Very good job Brenda and cannot think of anything you have left out.

I found this from the University of Pennsylvania on the issue of feeding soy to animals:

Soy has been linked to gas and deadly bloat in dogs. It is high in purines and is therefore a completely inappropriate protein source for urate-forming dogs. It is also high in silicates and promotes the formation of silica stones.

This is just a small sample of the harm soy can cause your dog.

When the world was touting the advantages of soy I jumped on that bandwagon and within time I became very sick. I will not do that to my dog.

Kidney stones? Have you ever had kidney stones? well I have and it is extremely painful and I do not wish for my dog to endure it.

I am a reviewer for Amazon and love doing this and I always try to give my best review being fair and objective. This time I was thrown a curve, this is the first 1 star rating I am giving to one of the products that Amazon has offered to me for review. My dog means the world to me and to even consider giving him something that is this harmful is not going to happen.

Sure beef is the first ingredient but the following ingredients are so against anything I will feed my dog.

My dog has been fed raw meat, ground and frozen to kill harmful pathogens, for the past few years. My vet does not like this practice but admits my dog is one of his healthiest patients.

I was wondering if I was not being fair to my dog and felt he may like to try some kibble for a change. But when this came and I read that it contained so much soy and soy byproducts I decided that my dog is getting a much better diet than this food can offer.

I am sorry I cannot recommend this product in all good conscience.

I saw the commercial for this and thought I'd give it a try. My dogs are very picky eaters and often leave kibble behind in their bowl. I end up having to throw them out cuz they refuse to eat them again. I normally buy a bag of dog food with a variety of flavors and textures like Chewy pieces and meat filled nuggets, etc but often time they leave certain flavors/kibble behind. But when I purchased two bags of the Canine Creations ... OMG ! Not a Crumb nor Kibble was left behind. I believe it's made from freeze-dried beef and kibble pieces. Moose *One of my dogs* can be a pig sometimes when he comes across something delicious. He won't share with his sister. This is one of them. The daily recommended feeding is 1 cup so I put one cup but Moose would eat every last bit and not leave any for his sister. I tried maybe 2 cups so they'll be some left but then he'd just eat all 2 cups. I tried separating their bowls but she won't eat without her brother. So I just hand feed her and let him eat outta the bowl. I know spoiled but Chef Michael's Canine Creation is FOR SURE thee best Dog Food I have purchased. I'm gonna be continually purchasing these for my dogs from now on. If I could I'd actually rate this 10+ stars !!

It may say "dog toy," but this rubber football is just right for my Amazon parrot, who loves rubber toys. There aren't many rubber parrot toys made any more, so I buy him dog toys, which seem to entertain him very much and last much longer than the "shreddable" toys (wood, plastic, leather, etc.), which he also loves. JW Pet Co. has various rubber toys, all of which I have given to my Amazon, and most of which are still around (miracle of miracles!). Thanks to Amazon, I can always buy more when the need arises for MY Amazon!

My dog (a 6lb yorkie/poodle mix) loved this toy but ripped it apart in less than an hour. Wish that it was more durable because he loved the thing but $6 for less than an hour of play is no good for me. Durability up and it gets 5 stars. It is actually lemon shaped like a football. Perfect size for his little mouth. About the size of two ping pong balls next to each other.

I bought these a few months ago for my Brittany Spaniel pup, who was about 10 months old at the time (he'll be a year next month). He's a little chew monster if ever I saw one, chewing through braided rawhides in a manner of minutes. Since I read that rawhide isn't healthy for dogs anyway, I looked for alternatives. The Busy Bones were a joke, and I'd been warned away from deer antlers because they splinter. So, I did a little more research and found out about cow hooves.

Pros: These things last, and last, and last, even with a very enthusiastic chewer like my dog. One hoof lasts him at least 3 or 4 days.

Cons: SWEET BABY JESUS, DO THESE THINGS STINK! When I first got them for my dog, I thought they were just giving him a really bad case of gas. But it was such a persistent and distinct stink (see what I did there?) that one day I wondered if maybe it wasn't the hooves themselves. I took one away from him that he'd been chewing on for a day or so and took a whiff. WHEW!!! I rue the day I did that. It smelled absolutely horrible. I guess I really shouldn't have been surprised at the scent when you consider that a cow hoof is nothing more than a giant toenail. In fact, that's actually the closest thing I can compare the smell to--a giant, stinking, toenail that's been inside of a funky, humid, leather sneaker for a very long time; take that scent and multiply it times 100. Ladies, maybe you've never experienced that scent, but I'd wager most of us guys have at some point or another, particularly the big toenail during summer months.

Another huge con for me is that these aren't made in America, but Chile. From all the research I've done on my own, animal treats/food made in countries other than America should be avoided at all costs because of the chemicals they use in processing, particularly dog treats like rawhide and such.

In conclusion, these things are very long lasting, but because of the God-awful stench and the fact that they're not processed in America, I haven't given one to my dog in nearly two months. Once the whole bag is gone, I doubt I'll ever buy another.

My dogs just aren't into the plastic bones and other chew toys but they love the cow hooves! This pack of 10 contains hooves that are thicker than I have seen other places, which is important because they are less prone to splitting and chipping. You do have to watch your dog when they are chewing, in case a piece breaks off, but this is the only product that I have found that my dogs love. I have two labs, one is an agressive chewer, and if we have the hooves around I don't worry about her chewing something she shouldn't (my shoes!). I do have to warn you that the smell isn't great when they chew it for a while, but its worth it for them to be happy. I would absolutely reccommend this product to anyone with a dog!

Its getting harder and harder to find these around town where I live. Great items, I agree with the other review that after a while the smell is terrible. However its a small price to pay. Both my dogs love their hooves. I have a coon hound and cocker spaniel/beagle mix. They will chew on the hooves for hours.

Want Beefeaters Cow Hooves - 10 Pack Discount?

These are a decent price and they are of good quality. They can last a long time and don't make a gummy mess like rawhide. These don't seem to smell as bad as some of the other brands of hooves.

As with all toys and chews you need to monitor your dog and how they eat it. I have one dog who loves to chew and an other dog who only chews on stuff because the other dog want it. The not so avid chewer can power through just about anything very quickly and he shatters these hooves into bits in minutes. Fortunately he looses interest once he has destroyed it and it's in little pieces. The other chewer is content to gnaw on these for hours. He doesn't shatter them and they last for weeks.

I raise Sugar Gliders and even though their teeth don't continue

to grow like Hamsters and Rabbits they enjoy chewing on these couches.

They turn them over and over playing with them and jumping on and off

them. They love to chew on the couches especially on the corners. It

keeps them occupied and they are not bored. I am Very pleased with this

This is such a great idea! My mice need to chew on things a lot to keep their teeth short but cardboard tubes are too soft for them and they end up chewing through a bunch every week.

This couch is really cute!! My mice sit on it and chew on it from the sides. It's made of hard material so it should last a while by the time they get through it all.

To get them to sit on it right away I put a few sunflower seeds on top and then they figured out they can eat the couch too.

Great for my mice's teeth and my amusement.

CON: the green pillows in the main product image are misleading the 'green pillows' are only on the bottom part of the couch not on the back of the couch and they are directly attached.

My gerbils don't sit on this and actually move it in front of their wheel so they can hide behind it. But it is chewable, which they figured out very quickly, but it not easy to chew and apparently isn't very appetizing to gerbils or at least not to my gerbils. So, yes, it will take them quite a while to finish and so it might last them between other snacks, but they don't really like chewing it. I gave them a chew "log" today with seeds and such inside it and they chewed and chewed that. They just didn't like this couch enough to chew it much, just some nibbles here and there, and it's been in there about a week.

And as another reviewer mentioned, there are not actually cushions of any sort on this, it is just the bottom of the seat that is molded like cushions, they are not removeable, though they are green. There are no "cushions" of any sort or any coloring on the back, it is just the brown that the rest of the couch is. I only mention this because the picture doesn't look like the product.

This takes up a good amount of space inside our gerbils' cage, so I'm not sure how long we'll keep in there, but at least it gives them something to hide behind and can be chewed on if they run out of other things.

My horse LOVES these! He really favors the mint one.

This may sound odd, buy sometimes I try my pets treats (except my cat's treats, because of the nasty ingredients... ick) Other than the cat treats, I always try to buy treats that only have stuff in them that I would eat. Natural, safe, healthy. So, in honesty, I ate a small chunk that fell off of a newly opened cherry likit, and I was shocked at how good it taste! :) Hahaha, so no wonder horses love them. and if you think that is gross, the likits have the same things in them that can be found in human food. So although it isn't made for humans, it is made of the same things.

I would be careful with the molasses flavor because, like my horse, some horses are allergic to molasses. I've gotten to making him home made treats and having to buy molasses free treats because of his reactions.

TIP: do NOT just place this in their buckets; they can grip it and take a HUGE bite out of it and they can eat it within one sitting. you MUST use the toy accessories that the likit's belong with, so that they can not just bite it to bits.

TIP: I found that during the coldest times of winter, the likits would freeze / harden and wouldn't lick as easy and beau really struggled to get any, unlike the summer where it goes faster (he was licking it the same amount in summer and winter)You can try soaking it in warm water for a few mins and thoroughly drying it off, so it gets softer and so it makes it easier for them to lick it, or you can keep one in a warm area, like closer to a heaving vent (but obviously not on it!) (& i am not sure how it would do with microwaving) and switch the warm likit with the cold one every so often so that your horse can enjoy it easier, and they get a warm tasty treat while its cold out.

TIP: During the summer, you can have a few flavors in the freezer, and switch them out with the treat set out for your horse every so often so your horse has a nice cool treat to lick on when its hot out.

Overall, yes I agree it is expensive, but I still really like these treats. I suggest you should give them a try. If you dont want to dish out all that money for the treat AND the toys, if you aren't sure your horse will like the treat, just buy one of these refills and see if your horse is interested, then you can get the toys that go with it.

Give it a try :)I suggest getting more than just one flavor though.

I first bought this product because of my horse's chewing problem, hoping it could help or resolve it. The only down side is that my horse liked it to much! In only 5 days the standard apple flavor was completely gone, but he stopped chewing! I decided to order 3 of the Sport flavored ones as a refill and hopefully it will last longer. So overall I would strongly recommend this product to any horse lover! Just make sure to choose a flavor you horse will positively love!

While I received what I was looking for, the picture showed six sticks and the description said that the shipping weight would be 12.8 oz. When it arrived it was ONE 12" stick, weighing ONE oz, and in a box that weighed nowhere near 12 oz. For this I paid over $5 shipping. The ad was misleading for not indicating exactly what would be received. Additionally, this is the same picture that they show for some they sell for 4x the price and a shipping weight of 16 oz. The shipping cost for this item is the same. I would be hesitant to order this item for fear that I would not know what I would be getting.

When I purchased the item it was labeled as 50 Ct and turned out to be wrong and was only one 12" stick. I was not going to pay like $8 or $9 I think it was for a 12" stick when I can get a 36" stick at my local pet store for $12. So, I contacted the seller about the error and they said it was Amazon's fault the listing was completely wrong. They did refunded me and allowed me to keep the bully stick though which was nice. The product was good and my dogs loved it.

These treats smell good. I actually bought them for my rabbits because I didn't know dogs eat pumpkin, and like it. When the rabbits hear me open the package they run to the cage door and climb over each other to be the first one to get a treat. And, the dog loves them too, although he is jealous of the rabbits so I don't know if he eats them because he likes them or because he doesn't want the rabbits to get any. I actually ate one myself to see what the fuss was about only to find out they are rather bland, but the crunchiness was nice. As long as my pets are happy, then I am happy.

My pup DESTROYS his toys. No plush toys or rope toys for this boy because he dismantles them within minutes. I've had to resort to black Kongs and Aggressive Chews for Big Dogs from Nylabone. He doesn't especially like those hard chews... So, I decided to give this Everlasting Fun Ball a try.

He got this Triple Crown Everlasting Fun Ball at Xmas and he has eaten several meals from it. It keeps him busy rolling it around until the kibbles fall out. He gnaws and chews at it. He bats and rolls it. He plays fetch with it. It has only been a week and a half, but the fact that he hasn't punctured it or broken off a piece is AMAZING to me after seeing him ruin other toys designed for aggressive chewers within minutes.

I just pulled out a ruler and this toy is, in fact, 4" in diameter. My 8 month old lab/chessie mix pup is already 75# -he's going to be a big dog. This toy isn't a choking hazard for him at this time.

The everlasting treats come out pretty easily from this size ball, but he enjoys them. The everlocking treats fit the fun ball in a very clever manner; however, my pup was able to chew that up pretty quickly (as quickly as the Nylabone edibles) so I thought those were a little expensive for what it is. They'd probably last a lot longer for a dog that isn't such an aggressive chewer.

This squishy ball has brought him a lot of play time and kept him busy so I'm really pleased with it and would recommend it. As a matter of fact, I'm buying a second one for outdoors/pool time since I see it floats.

I have a lab puppy that can eat her food in 30 seconds flat. We have been using one of these fun balls to feed her for a few months now and it works great. She has to roll the ball around to get out her food (I made one of the holes slightly bigger by cutting out the little pieces inside the hole). She now takes about 20 minutes to eat her food and gets out some of her energy doing it. We fill the ball with her kibble and it fits just fine. The only down side is filling the ball. We've made a funnel out of a top cut from a water bottle that works pretty well.

Everlasting Fun Treat Ball / B0009YD8NS

I have several treat dispensing toys for my puppy, and I like this one the least. The design is very poor, in my opinion, at least compared to other treat toys we've used.

To begin with, it is difficult to "load" the toy with food and treats because there are two identical loading holes, one opposite the other. This means that when I pour treats in, they pour right out on the opposite side. It's like filling a bucket with no bottom, and it's very frustrating. Eventually, you have to just find the biggest treats you can, and jam them in, which is a pain and a half. Not to mention the edges of the hole catch and grab at your fingers fun!

That brings me to my next point you cannot put small treats or puppy kibble in here as they will fall out immediately. Only big fat treats will provide the dog a challenge, but fortunately the makers of this product make such treats and are more than willing to sell them to you. Which is fine, I guess, and I went ahead and bought some, but I prefer to fill my treat toys with at least some regular kibble so that the puppy doesn't just gorge himself on a bunch of rich treats all at once. Since this ball won't allow me to do this, it's now an occasional toy, not a reliable daily toy.

Bottom line: I feel that this toy is difficult to fill, and can only be used for "treat gorging" and not for regular dinner time. If your fingers are less delicate than mine and you just want a treat ball, you may like this my dog certainly likes the chewy rubber and he hasn't destroyed it yet (although he's not much of a chewer). However, if you want an easy to fill ball that can hold kibble and enliven dinner time, I recommend the Omega Paw Tricky Treat Ball.

I've used a variety of treat toys (toys that you can put treats into that the dog has to try and get them out) and this is my dog's favorite. I have to admit, I really like it too since unlike something like a Buster cube it's not noisy, doesn't hard my wood floors, and when my dog brings it to me and drops it on my foot it doesn't hurt as much as the Everlasting Treat Ball. I'm not sure I'd use this with a dog that really chews on their toys, but for my sheltie it is just ideal. The trick is simply finding the right treats to put into it. Kibble works if it's not too small but my personal favorite is any of the varieties of dried treats like Dogswell Chicken Treats. I just break them up into pieces of varying sizes and stuff them into the ball. The smaller ones come out quickly, and the larger ones, well, they may not come out for a long time, and my dog will often just lick and try to chew them out (obviously don't do this unless you have a dog that is not going to chew the toy itself up!) It keeps him occupied for hours! He's even learned to bring it to me for refills or sometimes just to ask me to have pity on him and get that last treat out for him. I use the toy in many situations when he is fearful or scared, as it's so rewarding for him, that he will interact with it regardless of what else is going on. What else can I say, we BOTH love it! I bought 4 of them, so no matter how many get lost under chairs or beds, I always have one handy to fill up for him, and I always take one with me when we travel.

I have 3 large dogs (2 black labs and a rottweiler). My rotty has claimed this treat ball as HERS! She and my youngest lab fight over it all the time. I adopted my rottweiler when she was a year old and didn't know her toy preferences. She destroyed all the toys I gave her except this one! We have had this ball for nearly two years now and it's still in great shape. Franci loves throwing the ball down the stairs to see if any treats fall out. The little tabs inside are just enough to keep the treats in but yet let them come out if squeezed just the right way. This ball keeps my dog busy for hours.

People, here's a clue: if the treats that you're using fall out easily, buy bigger treats! If the treats are too big I break them into pieces that will fit. I even make homemade all natural treats that fit nicely into ball as well.

This treat ball was worth buying.

However, if dog toys annoy you...don't buy this!! This toy has brought hours of laughter to my family and hours of play for my dog. It squawks when it re-inflates so my dog treats it differently than his other toys. He talks to it and handles it gently. I have no idea why other than he thinks it is alive. It is a horrendous noise! But if you are looking for laughs and entertainment for your pet, this is it! Fairly durable. His last one lasted about 6 months of regular play.

These really do last longer than cow rawhides and are great if your dog is allergic to beef, like mine is.

My dog is allergic to almost everything so is limited to a duck and potatoe diet and hypo allergic cookies. I was excited to find this product since these have been the only kind if rawhides that she can have that don't cause her to breakout.

My pooch loved this one, but it could've been a bit larger, esp for being labeled a "large". Still recommend it.

I don't know why but my dog (golden retriever) is not interested in this bone. She likes rawhide bones. I tried several times to get her interested in this.

The product was exactly as described and my dog definitely loves these all-natural rawhides. I had to get these because the small "rolls" were unavailable at the time. I figured it wouldn't make a difference but it does with my dog. She prefers the rolls. She works hard to get the knots off the end of these small bones and then works on the shaft; she doesn't go back to the knots at all and leaves them which is a big waste. I re-ordered the small rolls when they restocked. It's just up to the preference of your dog (knots vs. rolls) but both products are otherwise the same and good quality.

I purchased the pumpkin and apple version of these treats locally and zipped through them rather fast so I came to Amazon for more!

First, they smell YUMMY. I wanted to eat them they smell so delicious like fresh baked pie or something. Wonderful ingredients so I probably could have eaten them! Dog loves them and since he's a puppy, they are a good size treat for him. NOT a good training treat though... they are crunchy so they take a bit to chew. Soft treats are better for training so I intend to try the soft mango treats in this brand.

Price is excellent on Amazon at least 1.50/bag cheaper here than I can get locally.

Great size for a treat for my treat-begging pug. I can give her a couple without worrying about the calories stacking up.

My two doxies LOVE the fruitable treats & they fit in the original petite KONG. So, they get a fruitable in their KONG toy every workday morning when I leave for work.

My pup loves this item.

But I was disappointed. The advertising is deceptive. The picture for the product shows two of the kneecaps and it is not shown in the packaging. It says that the items are 3-4 inches each. Farther down the page, it says that the item is 8 oz. It never says how many there are. The advertising implies that there are 2 kneecaps that are 3-4 inches each. Wrong! You get one kneecap for $6.00. Finally, the ad says that it weighs 8 oz, the package says 2.5 oz and the actual weight is 6 oz.

I will not buy another Jones product for my animal and will be very cautious when purchasing anything from NYC Pet Supply and fulfilled by Amazon.

You can buy Ranch Reward 5 pack for $9.99 ($1.99 ea) here at Amazon. That will be my next purchase.

Pros:

They look tasty and no splinter, unlike regular bones.

They are individually wrapped keeping the moisture and flavor fresh.

They are tough enough that my dogs can only grind on them but not chew out chunks to cause chocking.

They keep them occupied for hours.

I buy mine from my local pet store and have also bought the petco brand bag of 5 for $10 (in store only). My dog is 8lbs it takes him maybe 5 times @ 30 mins before there's nothing on the bone anymore, and even after the stuff is gone he gnaws on it a bit. I'm very happy my local pet place turned me on to these. I get them for him only every so often as a super special treat. : ). I'm really happy these exist. There is one drawback and that is the oily substance on them, if you have a long-haired dog, makes their facial hair kinda gross.

I have 5 dogs; one large, one medium and 3 small dogs. They all love these knee caps. They will take them to their favorite spots and gnaw away for hours! Then they will rotate and exchange and gnaw for a couple more hours!

I don't love them but my Lilly girl sure does. She has fallen in love with Greenies from the very first bite.

I'm very happy to see these in a more budget friendly box. My dogs each expect 1 every day. So having 36 is great if for nothing but there are an even number of the product.
