The Treat Trap is a fun, challenging toy for your dog to flip over and retrieve their treat. It reduces tartar and plaque and helps maintain healthier gums, giving your dog fresher breath. Every time you come home your dog will walk up to you with the Treat Trap and beg for a treat!

 


WHAT ARE THE BULLIBONES MADE OF?

Bullibones consist of simple ingredients: nylon and natural flavoring. Everything is sourced exclusively in the United States.

 


ARE BULLIBONES EDIBLE?

Bullibones are intended to be a chew toy that clean teeth and offer oral health benefits. They aren’t designed to be consumed, though they can be ingested in small quantities. We recommend replacing your Bullibone after reasonable wear and, at a minimum, once a month.

 


WHERE ARE BULLIBONES MADE?

Bullibone products are manufactured and produced in the United States.

 

 
WHAT IS REASONABLE WEAR?

If you start to see large pieces of the Bullibone falling off after extended chewing, we recommend replacing your Bullibone right away.

 


HOW HARD IS A BULLIBONE?

Bullibones are very tough, durable chew toys, intended for dogs who need something sturdy to chew. A quick press on the bone will show you just how hard a Bullibone is.

 


HOW LONG DOES A BULLIBONE LAST?

Bullibones last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on how extreme of a chewer your dog is. We recommend replacing your Bullibone at least monthly. If your dog is an extreme chewer, we recommend replacing weekly or bi-weekly.

 


WHAT FLAVORS DO THE BULLIBONES COME IN?

Bullibone flavors are bacon, peanut, and beef. Avoid introducing any Bullibone product into a household with an allergy to any of the following: peanuts, beef, pork or nylon.

 


HOW LONG WILL THE FLAVOR LAST ON A BULLIBONE?

A Bullibone’s flavor lasts for a long time. Although you may not be able to smell the scent, your dog can certainly still taste and smell it.

 


WHAT SIZES DO THE BULLIBONES COME IN?

Bullibones come in three sizes – Small, Large, and Extra Large. Small Bullibones are meant for small dogs, large are meant for medium and large-sized dogs, and extra-large is meant for very large dogs. Use caution with puppies, as we recommend only experienced chewers tackle a Bullibone.

 


SHOULD I BUY THIS FOR MY PUPPY?

We do not recommend buying a Bullibone for puppies younger than 6 months due to the hardness of the chew toy.

IS IT OK TO PUT A BULLIBONE IN THE DISHWASHER?

Bullibones can be washed with hand soap and warm water. Try to keep it from extreme hot and cold temperatures.

 


DOES THE BULLIBONE STAIN CARPETS OR CLOTHING?

Since we do use natural flavors, coloring, and scents, we recommend keeping away from really light-colored clothing and carpets.

Bullibones can be found at Wal-mart and Albertsons. If you can’t find one at your local store, find us on Amazon.

How Bullibone Started

The story of how our CEO Trevor Jensen jumped in front of a car to save his dog, nearly died and dedicated his life to playing with dogs for a living.  

Trevor was walking his dog one morning and a driver ran a red light and came speeding toward him and his dog crossing the street at an intersection.  With no time to think, he just reacted.  He jumped in front of his dog and pushed her out of the way.  He was hit by the car and suffered internal bleeding, a torn ACL, a torn MCL, a concussion and a host of other issues.  It was a hit and run and he was left in the street and had to get himself to the hospital.  When Trevor was in the hospital he thought he was going to die because the doctors were rushing around and seemed panicked.  He remembered thinking “If I die today was I happy doing what I was doing?”  He came to the realization that he would be happy playing with dogs all day and helping to make his dog happier and healthier and not working a desk job.  If his instinct was to sacrifice himself for his dog they are obviously very important to him.  

After he got out of the hospital he did some soul searching and eventually quit his job and dedicated his time to figuring out how to make the dream of playing with dogs all day a reality.  He partnered up with inventor and mechanical engineer, Leebob Willingham.  Willingham had designed the original Bullibone chew toy to solve a daily problem he and his wife Leah dealt with, destructive chewing and dog boredom. Trevor pulled a small amount of money together from his friends and family and went to work turning Bullibone into a dog toy business.  That was at the end of 2015 and Trevor has made designing toys for the average aggressive chewer and playing with dogs a focal point in his life since then.

Bullibone solves 2 of the biggest and most common problems dog owners face,  destructive chewing and dental disease.  Dental disease effects 80% of dogs over the age of three and destructive chewing is the third most common behavioral issue after barking and jumping due to a lack of mental stimulation.

A dog’s brain has a natural instinct to chew on things which helps clean and strengthen teeth as well as increase blood flow to the gums. In the wild, a young dog, small dog, older dog, or a large dog would all be found chewing on bones and sticks, but if domestic pups are not given something to chew on they will chew on shoes, tables, chairs, or anything hard they find in their environment.  This can wreak havoc on a dog owners sanity.  

Bullibone chew toys are designed to clean teeth and address these 2 problems in an interactive and effective way.  Bullibone is the creator of the Paw Pad Handles(TM) that allows the dog to prop the  chew toy up as they chew.   Bullibone chew toys are made with a proprietary nylon and natural flavoring blend using Chew Scrub Technology(TM) that creates a tough, long-lasting chew toy that can withstand even the most aggressive chewers.  Unique and innovative designs as well as being 100% made in the USA help Bullibone stand above all the other mental stimulation toys and make them a top selling product in over 25,000 retail locations.
