When Can Puppies Have Bully Sticks?

Introducing bully sticks into a puppy’s diet is a great way to offer a natural and healthy treat while also helping during the teething phase. However, it’s important to know the right time to introduce this type of treat to ensure your puppy’s safety and well-being.

Generally, puppies can start having bully sticks around 3 to 4 months of age when their baby teeth are developed and they have more control over chewing. At this stage, bully sticks can be especially beneficial, as they help relieve teething discomfort while providing a chewable activity that keeps puppies entertained.

However, it’s crucial to choose bully sticks that are appropriate for puppies. Treats that are too large or hard can be difficult for puppies to chew and may pose a choking hazard. Natural Farm offers bully sticks in different sizes and thicknesses, ideal for puppies and small dogs. These treats are made with 100% natural beef, ensuring your puppy is consuming a safe and nutritious product.

In addition, when introducing bully sticks to puppies, it’s important to supervise them during chewing. Puppies, being inexperienced, may try to swallow large pieces of the treat, which could cause choking. Supervise your puppy and remove the bully stick if they are chewing it improperly.

Another important tip is to limit the amount of time your puppy spends chewing on bully sticks. While they are an excellent tool for relieving teething discomfort, excessive chewing can cause wear on baby teeth.

In summary, puppies can start having bully sticks from around 3 to 4 months of age, with proper supervision and choosing a treat suitable for their size. Natural Farm offers a variety of bully sticks specifically designed to meet puppies’ needs, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience.
