First four everything great! In july ordered 100 lamb weasands. Dogs loved them!Three of my dogs became ill(vomiting over and over), within 2 hrs of ingesting weasands. I called BBS. Company owner, said to return them, and they would send them out for independent testing. He reported they were free of salmonella and ecoli. ?Mystery? of what made my dogs ill, since no other changes or additions to their lives. I reordered another 100 aug. 30th. Found crawling bugs in bottom of bag, after feeding for a week and a half.. Cooked remaining 80 twists. MAGGOTS EVERYWHERE! I took them to gA. dept. of agr.identified as warehouse beetles. the name tells you, they are food storage pests. I contacted FDA. Owner is arrogant and refuses to accept responsibility(blames customers for any problems.) He cannot admit, he shipped an infested product! He believes I am a complainer(three dogs ill, one needing antibiotics and fluids), and hundreds of maggots in the next batch sent. Damn right I am complaining. He ships most of his sticks(bully and otherwise), in clear unmarked bags. Impossible to check lot #s, manufacturer or even country of origin. Please be careful. His prices are very good, but the old adage"you get what you pay for", may be very true. I have 80 weasands and hundreds of dead maggots without any resolution. PlEASE BE VERY CAREFUL DEALING WITH BBS, I spent almost $1500 in 6 months, and am now called a complainer and thorn in their side. anyone who wants to contact me , please e mail me @nancyelizabethpi@aol.com. best to your pups I have been buying from BBS for six mos.

These sound really good. It's a pity I don't have any real life dog friends any more. I have been hearing about Bully Sticks quite a bit recently. These sound really good.
