I forgot to say that Mr. Meyer respects his clients....I will never forget the fact that you sent me a free box....I am a senior on a limited budget and was reminded that I must stick with a quality product.  After all...you can get a bunch of chews...and the cost will be more as these are good for the pets and keep their teeth clean while keeping them occupied without demanding more things that are not so good for them.  K

Thanks so much. I hope my neighbors have been ordering from you. I try to share/introduce the bones to those who have dogs in my neighborhood. Even my vet has asked how my dogs teeth are so clean - no more $200 visits to clean teeth and no more putting the dogs under to do it. Your bones are great. Cathy

Dear Mr. Meatman,
I want to say that my Old English Sheepdog Olivia, is the happiest dog in town when the Meatman comes! The bones look so mouthwatering she loves them. And you are the most courteous and honest business man I've ever come across.  We'll be ordering a lot more bones to be sure.
Thanks, Olivia/Linda Rowan, Naples, Florida

Craig,  Thank you so much.  What a surprise!  Our 1 year old Golden Retriever is just crazy about the Knuckle Bones.  I usually give him one on Saturday and Sunday mornings.  When he sees me going to the freezer in my garage (where we keep the knuckles) he goes into his happy dance routine.  I think soon we will have to go to the giant knuckles!

Thanks again.

Hi Craig,
We have 2 dogs: a greyhound and a small-breed mutt.  The bones are a huge hit with both of them, and the funny thing is that even though the beef shanks are recommended for larger dogs, our little mutt goes at that bone like it's steak wrapped in bacon wrapped in steak wrapped in ... well, more bacon. No complaints there.
I don't know that there's anything better that you could be doing with the bones themselves, but I might wonder if you've looked in to whether or not the bones could be shipped in some kind of airtight, vacuum-sealed type packaging. That might save money in terms of not needing to ship the bones with a coldpack, and it also might help cut down on the odor factor. It's not that the odor is unpleasant or anything (quite the opposite) ... it's just that when the bones arrive, the smell of the box makes the dogs go a little nuts. :).

Craig,
Sounds great I actually would like to place a custom variety pack order now! 1large knuckle 1shank and 3 tendon chews please! I'll be placing my order right after I send this email! And thanks again for making these bones. I wish I knew about these when he was a puppy!
Aliya

Craig...
Thanks so much for this e-mail.  I have actually ordered twice from you in the past and both times have been very pleased with your products...I won't mention how Boomer & Emma feel as words cannot express their delight!  I get them when they have to be boarded for the week while we go away camping to help them get through the difficult time.  
Looking forward to the newest order to arrive and watching the "children" attempt to open the package!
Have a wonderful day and I look forward to my next order!

Howdy,
My dog Ranger loves his new meaty bones.  I am so glad I found your web site.  I had bought bones at various pet shops & he really was not that interested in them.  More were thrown out than enjoyed.  I wish I could send you a picture of him, but I am not that computer savvy.  You have a very satisfied new customer, hopefully for a long, long time.  I will definitely recommend you to all my dog loving friends.  Thanks for the great customer service - a lot of place should take lessons from you & your company.
Linda

The dogs love em and they have removed the plaque buildup on their teeth.
My dogs are small lap dogs and my only suggestion would be that you offer to cut them in half for smaller dogs.
(We are happy to do this for any of our customers at NO charge.  Just send us an email asking for this custom cut right before you place your order.)
Thank you,
Richard Haas

Craig, 
I just tried to place an order for dog bones online.  After going through the whole process, including the credit card, at the final step it said that a parameter error had occurred and to notify the company.  I need to know if my order went through, or if I can place it again.  Thanks for your help.  My Zoey will be really upset if I can’t get these ordered.  It was for 2 of the 5-pack shank bones and one of the 6-pack tendons.  Please let me know what to do.  I wanted to order today, so it will be delivered by Monday.  Thanks for your help,
Vicky H., Alva, Oklahoma

Craig,
Thanks for answering me back.  I did receive an order confirmation yesterday afternoon late.  Perhaps there was a foul-up in our internet.   Anyway, I just wanted to be sure I got the order in OK.  I would have been in big trouble with Zoey if I blew that. (Ha! Ha!)  I really appreciate your help, your good service, and the good products you send.  Zoey has quite an attitude, so pleasing her isn’t always easy.  Thanks again,
Vicky

Thank you so much Craig. My two Corgis absolute go nuts with these Tendon Chews.
 Linda

Hey Craig,
The bones arrived and the dogs have been chewing their hearts out for two days.  Not just one dog but all eleven love them.
These are the best bones I've found and will continue to buy them as long as they are available!  There is not one thing that you could do to make them better!
I'll be happy to send pictures in a separate e-mail. Thanks for providing such a great product!
Victoria

My two min pins LOVE your puppy chews.  I keep the bones in the freezer and microwave them for 30 seconds before I give them to Bambi and Katherine.  They now associate my opening the freezer and putting something in the microwave oven with getting their bones.  They both spin in circles with excitement when the bones are handed out.   My sister Barbara made "dog quilts" from fabric scraps to help me cover the floor for bone chewing time. Everyone in the family helps spoil my girls.
Bambi cam from a rescue group and I don't know when her birthday is.  I got her 2 yrs ago on 9/28 so we can consider that her birthday.  I figured out 9 days before the puppies were born that Bambi wasn't getting fat.  She had 3 puppies - James T. Kirk, Jean-Luc Picard and Katherine Janeway - My Star Trek captains.  The same people who told me Bambi was spayed, told me that she was 5 yrs old - not!  I think she's around 10.  My vet recently commented that Bambi's teeth were in great condition.  I believe it's because she gets your bones every week.
The one puppy I kept was Katherine Janeway.  Katherine was born on 11/24/2008.  She was 4 oz. at birth - the runt of the litter.
Thanks so much for giving my dogs such pleasure with your wonderful treats.

Just wanted to say THANK YOU!!  I don't usually do reviews, but this was one worth writing!  We adopted a dog two months ago and he has a wild personality- as cute as it can be it can also be pretty annoying when you're trying to do things and he's mouthing you while you walk...he already poked a few holes in my nice sweaters just trying to play!  When we put these bones down (we ordered the large smoked beef knuckles for our 20lb mixed breed) and he doesn't even notice we're in the room!  I cooked dinner right in front of him just now and he could care less what food I had- he was just too busy :)  We just put in our second order already and will continue shopping here.  Plus the shipping is extremely fast!!  THANKS again! 
Melissa.
I received my order of large Beef knuckles yesterday. I am extremely pleased with the fast shipping an excellent quality of your product. My Bulldog has never enjoyed a Bone more. I was impressed how your Bones do not splinter. This was always of great concern to me regarding my English Bulldog and chew bones since she has immense bite force. Even under the Huge amount of pressure she exerted there was no shattering of the knuckle, she was able to shave it down slowly ( much like a cheese grater )and consume it.. On a recent trip to a large retail pet  food chain , I could not find a single Natural bone that was not produced in China. After the last pet poisoning  incident from firms using imported ingredients of dubious quality I am very please that you use USA beef.  My Bull did not suffer from any gut issues or vomiting after consuming your Knuckle, which has not been the case in the past when I tried pet store Natural knuckle bones. It was only later that I read the label and noticed that the pet store knuckles were treated with Formaldehyde as a preservative. Well, thanks again for a fantastic pet product. I will be ordering more when these are gone.
Sincerely, Richard Schock, Northport, NY
Hi Mr. Meyer,
Just wanted to say thank you for the exceptional quality (and quantity) of your dog bones.  My Mooch is a very happy girl right now.  I also appreciate the fact that you use no chemicals, and minimize the packaging to what is necessary.
Happy New Year!

Meatman!
Just wanted to say that we received our order of large knuckle bones today.  My dog Lily is a 2 year old chocolate lab who can smell food from miles away. She must have known the package had arrived long before I did, since she was laying at the front door when I came in through the garage after work.  The postman left the package at the front door, and I probably wouldn't have even known if she hadn't been sniffing at the walls. Normally she would run off to hide whatever bad things she had done during the day, but not today!  She was laying patiently, knowing that something great was about to happen! I gave her one of the bones and I have never seen her enjoy one so much!  She licked and chewed at it for about 2 hours!  Shipping was VERY fast and these are the best quality bones I have found so far.  There's actually still meat left on them!  I will definitely be buying again!  Thank you so much for this great product.  Here's a picture of Lily enjoying her new snack:).  Kate, Feb. 15, 2011.
Dear Craig,
We used to buy the large knuckles for our good ol' boy, Max the Airedale. He knew when the box would arrive. Now we have a puppy, just about six months, Honey Bear the Airedale. Terriers sure love to chew, and after the  insoles of all my shoes disappeared, and several choice woven baskets were destroyed, I ordered the first box of knuckles for Honey Bear. I thought, she's only four months, she'll never be able to open her puppy jaw that wide.
Ha! Honey Bear loved the MEAT on those bones. She carried the first knuckle  to her special "corner den" and chewed contentedly. If I could think of what to do with absolutely clean white bones, I'd make garden sculptures out of them. She cleans them bare. But for now, I'm ordering TWO more boxes for her. The are a no-fail distraction for unwanted behavior, and she is showing us that she will be a wonderful Airedale. My feet are more comfortable with insoles! Those bone-sickels (we keep them in the freezer) make us MAGNIFICENT pet owners in her eyes. 
Now, if you can think of a way to keep the Maltese (6 pounds) from trying to steal the knuckles, we shall have peace in the valley at last.

"My little babies LOVE them. However, which ever bone the little boy dog has, is the one that my little girl dog wants ! So funny to watch !
Thanks for your fast service."
Thank you,

Just wanted to say THANK YOU!!  My American Mastiff is 8 months old (about 120 lbs.), and he absolutely loves your hickory smoked bones.  They are the only thing out there that keeps him busy for hours at a time.  We have tried the large knuckles, shanks and the extra large knuckles.  After trying all three, seems he has a preference for the extra large knuckles (just placed another order today).  Any way you could start selling these in a five or ten pack deal?  He really goes through them!!  Thanks again for the great product.

Dear AskTheMeatMan:
I ordered the Large Knuckle bones for my two Rottweiler's.  They absolutely LOVED them!  They were very meaty and large.
In the past, I have bought knuckle/femur bones from the local pet store and the local grocery store for a lot more money for each individual bone- and those bones were just that, BONE- no meat on them. They tended to splinter too. My dogs merely "picked" at them. 
Your bones are Fantastic!  They don't splinter. My dogs devour them!  They even smell good!
Your website is easy to navigate and your prices for dog bones can't be beat! ANYWHERE! The bones arrived in a very timely fashion and were packaged with care.
I really appreciate that!
I've told my family and friends about your website for their dogs.  They have ordered from you too and are very satisfied with their purchase.
You are THE SOURCE for dog bones!  I will be ordering from you again, and again!
Thank You!
Susan M
Thank you very much!  I actually went ahead and ordered the Mammoth bone before you got back to me.  I was so excited to give them to my dogs, I couldn't wait!  They absolutely love them!  I think I might get the extra large knuckle next time though.  They would probably fit better in my freezer! 

 Oh, I did have one more quick question.  Is it ok to keep putting the bones in the freezer and then taking them out when I give them to the dogs?  My boyfriend mentioned something about checking to see if that was ok, to keep taking them out and then freezing them again.  I said I was pretty sure that's what you are supposed to do, as you said to keep them stored in the freezer.   Anyway, thank you again for getting back to me and the super fast shipping also! 

My dogs love them and I will definitely be ordering from you again!!

Dear Craig,
 
I had heard that you offered exceptional service but I am really touched and amazed by the level of commitment you have for customer service.  I believe that it is a dying art. :)
I appreciate the tips on how to store the puppy chews in the future (freezer) and I'm sure the boys are excited for a new shipment of the puppy chews. 
Once again, thank you for responding to my concerns and taking the time to help me.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
 
Best regards,

Hi, Meatman,
 
I wasn't looking for "Quick Contact", but this is all I could find. Well, I ordered a double order of your dog bones on Saturday night and I got them this afternoon, Wednesday, 3 business days later, just like you stated.
Holy Moly! My dog, Czarina, is going wild already. Your bones are incredible! You even sent a couple of extras, including a "King Kong" bone that I'm giving to my friend's Airedale. I already gave the 2 Staffordshire Bull Terriers across the street a few bones, too. You're well worth the price for the quality, including shipping. Superb.
You'll definitely be getting more orders from me and my baby. I've attached her picture, if you're interested in another crazy dog owner!
Thank you so much,
 
Mary George and especially Czarina (a Boxer/Pit Bull mix)
Dear Meatman:
 
Thank You !! Thank You !! Thank You !! You are AWESOME !!!!!!!
 
We are the proud parents of 3 Pomeranians, 2 of which happen to be "VORACIOUS" chewers. I have been searching far and wide for an alternative to rawhide. Every pet store, every web site... you name it. These dogs go through rawhide like it's nothing. One of them even has a little weight problem. I'm sure it's due to the rawhide. It can't  be healthy for them to ingest this over time.
 
No other chewing alternatives seemed to be acceptable to them. Believe me I've tried them all.
 
A few weeks ago we found some smoked shanks at our local gourmet grocery. "Jackpot" or so I thought. They were a little too big and quite costly. After getting off all the good crunchy stuff on the outside, (and they couldn't get to the marrow in the middle, only at each end)  they lost their interest. The little mouths couldn't get around the big ole thing to work on chewing at it further. And after about breaking my toe a few times walking through the house.... I continued my search.
 
I was very impressed by your website. The "No Shipping Cost" caught my eye and I decided to give it a shot. 
 
I bought the "Hickory Smoked Puppy Chews", since the dogs are all under 7 pounds this worked out to be a very good choice for me. They went crazy over them.  When I arrive home from work and let them out of the kitchen they run straight for the last place they saw their chew. And three days later they are still working on the same chewies. They can get there jaws around them to chew and carry. It's hysterical to watch.
 
Our local gourmet grocery can't compete with you guys.  The only teeny, weeny drawback is that now my beautiful fluffy lap dogs smell like "Hickory Smoked" lap dogs. LOLOLOL --- I don't even care....They smell like my husband after he has been outside smoking ribs.
 
I was totally impressed with the delivery. To place an order on Wednesday afternoon and they arrived on Monday around noon. Who can beat that with no shipping cost added to my order? I was more excited to see these in the mail so soon then anything in a long time. And also the personal note included on my invoice from Craig was priceless. I had just about lost all hope in good old fashion service with a smile.
 
Thanks so much once again.
 
Your customers for life....

Dear Mr. Craig Meyer,
Wow! Thanks for the amazing deal and quality on the large beef knuckle bones. When I opened the package the bones smelled so good, my husband wanted to try them, let alone our dog. Thank you for a great product and fast delivery. We will be ordering from you again and again!
best wishes,
Jennifer Wong

Dear Craig,
I wanted to let ya’ll know our 1 year old chocolate lab LOVES the smoked knuckle bones.  He has been chewing one since I opened the box an hour ago!  I am so happy I found this site!  These are so much better quality than what I have ordered from other sites & you’re a lot more reasonable with your prices as well.  I’ll be telling all of my friends & fellow dog lovers.
Lisa Kirby     Houston, TX

BTW, our 19 month old Doberman, Willie, LOVES the bones and chews.  And I'm not just saying that.  It was obvious as soon as I opened the box that your goodies are top quality.  The intensity and focus of his chewing proves it!  He's a happy boy!  I've bought some other bones off of EBay and elsewhere and you would be dumbfounded with what they sell.  Charred, not smoked bones.  Ribs.  etc.  Not healthy AND dangerous. 
Again, thanks.  I will order again but next time I'll try harder to get it right!
Wendell

Hey Craig,
Thanks for the "Extra Large Knuckle Bones" you sent a few weeks ago.  Now I need a bigger freezer!  He loved them, especially with all the crappy weather we have had (CT)...He flips for these and smells the box when they deliver.  Have gotten 3 other people in the area to order - Highly recommended, especially when you have that shipping special.
Bob Evans
Hi Craig,
We received the shank bones for our Akita today-he is one very happy dog-
the product is terrific-better than anything we have purchased before-
Samurai our dog is so busy hiding the bone that he has not had the time to enjoy it yet-but my wife and I are thrilled to see him so happy-
Susan/Peter Katy
Dear Mr. Meatman,
My name is Eragon, the Rottweiler.  I am two years old.  I love, love your bones!!  They are so yummy.
 When my Mom takes them out of that square thing, a box, I think she says, my nose thinks it is in heaven.  I literally start to drool with the thought of your tasty hickory bones.
I will do anything to get one.  When my Mom asks me if I want a bone, I stand straight up and my ears perk up.  My Mom says I look so cute.  LOL!  Anyway, I will sit, give her my paw, lay down...whatever she wants.
She took some pictures of me with my bones.  I wanted to share those with you.  Enjoy.  :)   
Best regards,
Eragon, the Rottweiler
P.S.  This is my Mom now...Thanks for the extra large knuckle bones!  My dog loves them!  They are one of my best finds when it comes to Eragon. 
Paulette Brown, owner
My Lab / Terrier mix is, by far, the biggest chewer of all the dogs I have ever owned.  I have been through countless brands and varieties of bones and chews, and much to my dismay, none of them met our (or her) needs.  I ordered the knuckle bones and voila'!   We found the right product!    I've just ordered the variety pack to try out a couple different kinds.  I'm looking forward to receiving those.  Layla  is only a year old, so I am sure we will be customers for a LONG time. 
Thank you for your high quality, reasonably priced, bones.
I've attached a pic of our 'chewer', Layla.
