Bonio is owned by the Nestle Purina Company, who also do Bakers Complete. They know about dogs nutritional needs, and specialise in products that are good for you pets.

Bonio have become so popular, you can now buy them in various sizes, depending on the size of your dog:-

Bite Size :- Especially made for smaller dogs and pups. These are so easy to keep in your pocket when you take your dog for a walk, just the thing to have for that special treat when Fido does well.

Big Bonio :- Available in a plastic wrapper, these are a lot larger, ideal for big dogs, or to keep your smaller dog happy for a while longer.

Price:-

All I will say about the price, is that you should shop wisely, as the price varies by an enormous amount. On average and in my area, I think these are cheap.

As for the taste, obviously they are not made for our palates, but my Daughter's little Westie eats them, so they must be okay. The don't look too nice to us of course, more along the lines of a boring biscuit in the shape of a bone, I have no idea is dogs thonk the shape is attractive, or perhaps they just pretent to get excited to please us!
And for those who simply can not get to sleep at night - One Bonio weighs 22grammes.

There is of course an official Bonio website! see here if you want to score some canine brownie points;-
