Sustainable Dog Chews

Bully sticks are not only good for your dog, but helpful for the planet and farmers.

Did you know that beef requires more land, fertilizer, and water compared to other food sources. This adds to the greenhouse gas emissions. To make it worthwhile, we want to be able to use all part of the animal.

At Jack's, we work with local Texas slaughters to take what might be thrown away and put it to use. Outside of the pet industry, most parts of the cow besides the meat, is thrown out and considered byproducts. While most people shy away from byproducts, they actually offer many nutritional benefits. This does not mean that these parts are inedible to humans, they are actually considered a delicacy in some cultures.

Benefits of Bully Sticks

• 100% Digestible- Bully sticks are 100% beef muscle. There is no added ingredients. Bully sticks are a highly palatable and tough chew. You can feel good knowing you are giving your dog a treat that they will not only love the taste of, but that will not upset their stomach or send you to the vet. Even you could digest it.
• Dental Chew- Dental health is extremely important to your dog's overall health. Chewing can help maintain the the buildup of plaque and healthy gums. The mechanical actions of chewing on treats promotes dental hygiene by scraping the gums and teeth. This scraping keeps their teeth whiter and free of build up.
• High Protein- Dogs love meat; they are opportunistic carnivores. They need protein to survive along with other nutrients. Bully sticks contain a high protein concentration, but are also low in fat. Beef is rich in amino acids which supports healthy muscles, brain, skin, and coat.

How Are Bully Sticks Made?

Bully sticks are made from bull penis. After the cow has been slaughtered, the raw meat is sent off to different places to be used. The muscle is then cleaned, stretched, and either sun dried, baked, or smoked.

At Jacks, we smoke our bully sticks in small batches. After they have been smoked, we dehydrate them to finish the cooking process and naturally preserve them. Smoking gives the bully sticks a natural BBQ flavor.
