For large dogs who make short work of standard sticks. Our 12-inch thick bully sticks weigh 50–59 g — a denser, longer-lasting chew that still is not as heavy as a jumbo.
Thickness slows down strong chewers and makes the stick harder to swallow in big pieces. Single ingredient — 100% beef pizzle — slow-roasted and air-dried so it stays low-odour indoors.
A popular pick for Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Boxers and other 25–40 kg dogs.

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) This product | 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 |
| ThickThis product | 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.
How to give bully sticks safely
- Supervise every session. Stay nearby while your dog chews.
- Remove the last 5 cm (2 in). Once the stick is small enough to swallow whole, take it away — or use a bully stick holder.
- Count the calories. Treats should stay under 10% of your dog's daily calories; see the calorie line in the table above.
- Introduce gradually. Start with 10–15 minute sessions so your dog's stomach can adjust.
- Puppies: from about 4 months old, with a thin or standard stick.
- Fresh water should always be available.
Bully sticks are a treat, not a replacement for regular vet dental care. Ask your veterinarian if your dog has dental, digestive or weight concerns.

Good sticks but a couple were thinner than the rest. The pouch reseals well.

Lasts well for our golden
Our golden takes a long time with one of these. They soften as she chews, no sharp pieces. Happy customer. -
Happy with the lack of odour
Big, heavy sticks. No smell in the house at all. Way better than the rawhide we used to buy. We use them for crate time and it helps a lot. Thanks! -
Handy when I need to take a call
These last way longer than the thin ones we had before. Keeps him busy while I'm on work calls. -
A favourite with our husky
Our husky is obsessed. Subscribing next time. -
Mastiff approved
