Who 6-inch bully sticks are for

A 6-inch (15 cm) bully stick is the right size for dogs under about 20 kg, for puppies from 4 months, and for any dog that should chew in shorter sessions. They are also easier to portion if your dog is watching its weight.

Always supervise, and take the stick away when about 5 cm (2 in) is left.

Which bully stick is right for your dog?

Pick by your dog's weight first, then by how hard they chew. When in doubt, size up — a stick that is too small can become a choking hazard.

Dog weight Typical breeds Recommended sticks
Under 10 kg (22 lb) Chihuahua, Yorkshire Terrier, Shih Tzu, puppies from 4 months

6-inch thin or standard sticks
10–25 kg (22–55 lb) Beagle, Cocker Spaniel, Border Collie, French Bulldog

6-inch thick or braided, or 12-inch standard
25–40 kg (55–88 lb) Labrador, Golden Retriever, Boxer, Husky

12-inch thick or braided; 6-inch jumbo for shorter sessions
Over 40 kg (88 lb) or power chewers German Shepherd, Rottweiler, Bernese Mountain Dog, Mastiff

12-inch jumbo or braided

Always supervise chewing and take the stick away once it is small enough to swallow.

Compare bully stick styles

All PUPHE sticks are the same single ingredient — the difference is thickness, and thickness decides how long a stick lasts.

Style 6-inch weight 12-inch weight Best for Chewer type Avg. chew time
Thin 10–18 g 20–37 g Puppies & toy breeds Gentle 10–20 min
Standard 19–24 g 38–49 g Small to medium dogs Light to moderate 20–40 min
Thick 25–29 g 50–59 g Medium to large dogs Moderate to strong 30–60 min
Jumbo 30 g+ 60 g+ Large & giant dogs Power chewers 45–90 min
Braided 30–50 g 60–100 g Medium to large dogs Strong 60–120 min

Chew times are averages from our in-house testing with medium-sized dogs; every dog is different.

Frequently asked questions

Should I buy 6-inch or 12-inch bully sticks?

Choose 6-inch sticks for small dogs, puppies and short sessions, and 12-inch sticks for medium and large dogs or longer chewing. A 12-inch stick is roughly twice the chew of a 6-inch stick of the same thickness, and twice the calories.

Are bully sticks safe for puppies?

Yes, from about 4 months old. Start with a thin or standard 6-inch stick, keep sessions to 10–15 minutes, and always supervise. Take the stick away once it is small enough to swallow. Our full guide, Are bully sticks safe for puppies?, covers sizes, calories and warning signs.

How many bully sticks can my dog have per day?

Treats should make up no more than 10% of your dog's daily calories. Each product page lists the approximate calories per stick; for most dogs that means one stick a day, or part of a larger stick. Ask your vet if your dog is on a weight-loss plan.

When should I take the bully stick away?

Remove it when about 5 cm (2 in) is left, or as soon as it is small enough for your dog to swallow whole. A bully stick holder lets your dog finish more of the stick safely.

How should I store bully sticks, and how long do they keep?

Keep them in the resealed pouch in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Unopened, they keep for 24 months; once opened, use within about 3 months. A partly chewed stick can be rinsed, air-dried and stored for the next session.
