Why 9196 to start

It adds up, line by line.

Every product starts at 96. Flags, the brand's transparency grade and any recall linked to this product take points away. Nothing else moves the number, and no brand can pay to move it.

Best Bully Sticks

Bully sticks and other single-ingredient chews. Graded from the 1 product of theirs in this catalogue, not from an audit of the company.

Not enough to grade: we hold 1 panel, a single named part, and two of the three product pages we opened print no ingredient list. The C grade takes 5 points off this product's score.

Independent testing & contaminants

No independent testing on file.

Third-party lab findings for things that never appear on an ingredient label. This is separate from the score above and does not change it.

We haven't found published third-party lab results (PFAS, heavy metals, phthalates) for this product. That is not a clean bill of health, just an absence of data.
