The ones I buy don't smell at all. I don't even notice them while they're being chewed on.

Now I have smelled some of the pet store ones and those stink. I never buy those anymore though.

I've never noticed a smell when I've bought any, though I've only given them to Casey a couple times. Maybe depends on where the store gets them and the store here is a private owned pet store so I have no idea what brand they are.

They don't bother me! I suppose I just appreciate them for what they are (same goes for tripe!). I get the stinky ones - my dogs like those best

So far the ones I've tried haven't smelled that bad. Denta chews however stink to high heaven.

aron pet foods bully sticks are pretty odourless unless you stick the dog in a room to chew it. I just give them in the crate.. Order a bunch of extra large ones then use the electric saw. Now THAT stinks. Peee yyuuuuuuuu
