Anco Naturals Bully Pizzle Stick

Anco Naturals Bully Pizzle Stick

This is the standard pizzle, thinner and shorter than the large, and the one most dogs start on. Anco declare 78% protein and 10% fat for the stick, marginally richer than the large size but still low enough to sit comfortably in a restricted diet.

A pizzle stick is tough without being brittle, so it does not shatter into sharp pieces the way a hard bone can. Most medium dogs get a good quarter of an hour out of one, and the fibrous texture that develops as it softens is what makes it useful for teeth.
