I've looked at these. They are kinda pricey for the amount u get...and they all seem to be 6" or longer. Are they easy to cut into smaller pieces?

Someone already mentioned bully sticks early in the thread. That's what a bully stick is. I bought some for my son's new 3 pound schnauzer pup a few weeks back that are small enough for her tiny little ass to handle. They were about 3" long. Got em at PetCo in a resealable bag.
Our dog trainer highly recommends them btw.

This is an excellent treat for dogs... and very good for them in more than one way.
Baby carrots are one of the ingredients I use in my dog's food for this reason. I make my dog's food because of his sensitive stomach... a common thing with poodles. I have a Golden Doodle so he got the sensitive stomach from his poodle genes.

I get the butcher at Whole Foods to get me cow femurs sometimes and cut them into manageable sized pieces for my boy. I cook em on an indirect heat on my big green egg. They come out less messy than the ones you can buy at the grocery stores that are already cooked.
I tried to give my boy these things raw... but he didn't want it. After I cooked some up though... he loved it. Kinda weird. I bet most dogs would eat it raw. My butcher gets these things for me and they are extremely cheap. The marrow is very good for them.

Young pups typically have more sensitive stomachs. Maybe the sensitivity will pass as he grows up more. Or... maybe not.
Just try and remember what doesn’t seem to agree with him so you can avoid whatever that is. Hopefully you'll find things that are more agreeable.
The baby carrots are good... he's small enough that they will also kinda be like a chew toy and a treat at the same time.
Some times giving too many treats can cause the stomach issues. Especially in pups. Try to limit the amount. Even a tiny piece is a prize for a dog. The tiniest piece.

My dog loves baby carrots. He also scarfs on pig ears. Be sure to buy US pig ears - not Chinese. The Chinese ones are hard as fuck and sorry but I don't trust the product for my dog anyway.

The treat of choice in our house is dentabones. I have 3 pups, two big boys and a midsize girl, and all three drop what they're doing for them. Also all 3 have spotless teeth so they work.
They're kind of expensive though, especially the way my wife doles them out lol. So I get the small ones and cut them up a bit.
I will supplement with milkbone biscuits but only the boys like those. But they're cheap so worth it. I use the small ones so I don't have to break them up and buy the big boxes.

Yes you did. I couldn't find them. Then I saw them at walmart a few weeks ago. But, I was concerned with how long they were. I just gave him one and he ran the hell away with it. Instant hit.

So I thought of this thread this morning...
A couple of folks mentioned "greenies" which are great for the dog's teeth. Problem is they are so darned expensive. Alas, I had gotten a coupon for Purina Dentalife chews, and at 1/3 the price of Greenies, I figured I'd give them a shot.
My dog loves them and when we had Elvie in for her annual shots, the Vet even mentioned how great her teeth looked.
Funny thing is each morning after I put her out I "hide" one of the chews in the laundry room. It's like our little game, she comes in and immediately heads to the laundry room to find it.

I have greenies and my dog is a dick and won't eat them. He still loves the bull dick. We got rawhide(less) chicken sticks and that's a new one he loves.
He really liked these Vibrant Life Pigs in a Blanket from walmart....like fucking loved them. Now it seems they have vanished. I'm sure because they were garbage. My wife picked them up not knowing what to get one day and dude went ape shit over them.
