New Line of Barkworthies Natural Dog Chews are Smoked in Small Batches over Natural Hickory Hardwood in Richmond, Virginia in a State-of-the-Art Smoke House Facility

Barkworthies high-quality, natural dog chews and snacks, is proud to introduce the first-ever hickory smoked line of natural dog chews. The new Barkworthies smoked chews feature Southern BBQ flavor and the sweet smelling aroma of ribs coming off the grill.

“Through our research and consumer studies, we know that dog parents want to give their dogs the best in health and nutrition,” said Andrea Blades, Chief Marketing Officer at Barkworthies. “But single ingredient natural chews such as Bully Sticks or Pig Ears often come with one top complaint – the odor.”

“While dogs love stinky chews, dog parents simply don’t,” she said. “Our research shows that this can sometimes result in the pet parent choosing an unhealthy choice – such as rawhide – simply to avoid an unpleasant odor.”

“At Barkworthies, we believe that dogs and their parents should have an exceptional experience with our products, including their odor and they should never need to compromise a healthy choice,” she added. “We are excited to announce our new line of Naturally Smoked Chews and Treats for Dogs.”

“Our line of hickory cold smoked chews and treats have an incredible aroma of smokey goodness making them irresistible to dogs and dog parents alike,” said Blades. “Our

innovative cold smoking process (patent pending) adds just the right amount of smokey barbecue aroma and unbeatable flavor, while maintaining the integrity of the chew and our steadfast commitment to an all-natural product. You won’t find smoke powder or liquid smoke on these chews – just meat, smoke and love.”

New Barkworthies naturally smoked dog chews include:

• Smoked Bully Sticks (3pk)
• Smoked Thick Bully Sticks (3pk)
• Smoked Trachea (3pk)
• Smoked Yak Cheese (2pk)
• Smoked Chicken Breast Fillet (4oz)

To create these great tasting treats TDBBS built a new state-of-the-art smoking operation located at company headquarters in Virginia to enhance the fact that all TDBBS products are manufactured in the United States.

Smoked Bully Sticks These bully sticks smell so good, you’ll find yourself going back for another whiff! Offered in standard and thick and approximately six inches in length, the sticks are long lasting and support dental health and a dog’s innate need to chew.

They’re a good choice for strong and enthusiastic chewers of all breeds and sizes. These long-lasting, challenging and satisfying chews will keep your pup occupied and begging for more.

Smoked Trachea features a natural, rich BBQ flavor and are designed for dogs who prefer a lighter chew.The crunchy, hollow treats are made from the windpipe of a cow and feature a gnarled surface that keeps dogs interested. The textured treats help grind down plaque and tartar as your dog chews, leading to better dental hygiene. Trachea is packed full of chondroitin and glucosamine, two naturally-occurring substances that help keep your dog’s joints healthy. The smokey flavor makes these a perfect healthy treat.
