Today we are helping our friend Flea celebrate her second blogiversary. For those of you who don’t know Flea (I’m shocked, really I am) she is the official blogger for Jones Natural Chews. Flea is funny and smart, she’s so good at integrating Jones into her post, that you actually forget she’s blogging for Jones.
I met Flea last year when I attended BlogPaws in D.C. Over the course of the past year, we’ve developed a friendship so when she asked me to help celebrate her Blogiversary with a Jones Natural Chew giveaway, I was totally thrilled.
Turns out my dogs are too.
I picked up the delivery from the front steps and set it on my interior stairs when I got home from work. I hitched Delilah up for her walk and watched her head whip around as we walked past the package on the stairs. Siriusly, I thought for a minute there she would give up her walk for the box. She forgot all about that little indiscretion when I placed the box on the floor.
Holy woof, something smells amazing. Why did they put so much tape on there?
She tried opening it, but she was too slow, so I helped her out.
Siriusly, you want me to wait? What the woof is wrong with you?
She tried a different tactic, but I insisted we do a thorough review.
Who staples treats? What the woof?
Today we are reviewing Jones Natural Chews Beef Tracheas and Jones Natural Chews Lamb Lung Puffs and at the end we’re going to tell you how you can win a package of lamb lung puffs or beef tracheas for your pet.
We started out with the beef tracheas. Guess what’s in them?
Beef trachea, that’s it! I love a treat that isn’t chock full of stuff I can’t pronounce. (I really can pronounce trachea, I promise.)
Sampson was first. He’s such a good boy, I actually set the treat down and made him wait while I took a picture, but he looked so sad, I didn’t have the heart to post it.
Jones beef trachea you say? Nom, nom.
Apparently it was so good, he felt the need to make sure there was nothing left on the carpet.
Yes it’s true, I licked the carpet.
I had to place the treats quite some distance from Delilah, she’s fast that one.
Well now you’re just woofing with me. You’re cruel Mama, very cruel.
I shall simply say, Delilah enjoyed the treat as well, if she in fact tasted it on it’s way down.
Sampson and Delilah give the beef trachea from Jones, a four paws up.
We moved to the lamb lungs. Guess what’s in them?
Lamb Lung! I know, I feel like we hit the lottery and so do Sampson and Delilah!
The first thing I noticed was how LARGE they were. Folks, these were hanging out of my treat bag. Don’t believe me? Look.
That’s a damn quarter! See how small it is compared to the treat?
Again we went with the easy dog first. (I wanted to make sure I still had fingers to operate the camera.)
Nom, nom. This is way bigger and better then those stingy pieces you give us Mama.
Yes it’s true. I use the lamb lungs for my recall treats and I break them into bits. I know, I’m a bad Mama.
Then it was Jaw’s turn. What? You think I’m kidding?
You gotta be quicker than that Mama. Grass don’t grow under these feet.
Dog’s so damn fast the camera couldn’t capture it.
Sampson and Delilah give the Jones Natural Chews lamb lung puffs another four paws up.
In honor of Flea’s Blogiversary I was working on a little ditty. I was trying to tie it in with Delilah’s broken tooth, but I could only get so far. Sing it to the tune of Friends in Low Places by Garth Brooks.
Blame it all on my tooth, the dang thing went poof and ruined my chewing affair, The vet seemed to know and to my mama did show, I was hoping she just wouldn’t care But I saw the surprise and the fear in her eyes When the vet said this tooth has to go I said hold it right there, this just isn’t fair There’s something I want you to know I’ve got friends at Jones Che-ews, who make treats so good they’re better than booze.
I told you I could only get so far.
I also told you there was also a chance for you to win the treat of your choice, so here goes. Leave me a comment and tell me how you think I could wrap up the end of that song.
I’m just kidding!! Siriusly, tell me in the comments which treat your dog would like. The winner will be determined by random.org, contest will remain open until midnight (EST) July 7th and winner will be announced Thursday, July 10th.
I want to thank my friend Flea for the privilege of helping her celebrate her 2nd Blogiversary. It’s a real honor, I enjoy your blog immensely and I treasure your friendship. For those of you who don’t know Flea, you can find Flea in all her hilarity HERE.Today we’re joining the Tasty Tuesday blog hop, hosted by Kol’s Notes and Sugar the Golden Retriever.
I so misread what we had to do to enter and thought it said tell me which dog you would like. My original thought was WTF? A great review, and a brilliant giveaway!!
Mom has our box on top of the refrigerator so we can’t get it and the cat can’t get up there either. I guess it is like Fort Knox around here lately! Nice review!
I nominated you for the Shine On Award on my blog today! Pop by to grab the badge and the rules 🙂
Great review and little ditty!!!!! My gang would like to try the trachea treats! Happy 2nd year in blogville jones
My 2 princesses would love to try the Jones Natural Chews Lamb Lung Puffs. Thank You. 😉
Jones Chews are super yummy! And OMD…I LOVE your ditty. I even sang it to myself with a ‘twang’ in my voice! Happy Tasty Tuesday.
You did a great review of the yummy treats. Brown dawgs loved them too. 🙂
We love Flea too AND we love our Jones treats!
We got some of those treats at blogpaws this year. The dogs love them!
Following directions:
I’ll be okay
aaas long as Mom doesn’t loo-oo-ose
the address for those scru-uu-ump-tious che-ews
So we will always have friends at Jo-oo-ones che-ews
And now I have to thank you for that song getting STUCK in my brain all day. 🙂 Guess there could be worse things.
GREAT story Jodi!!!!
Since my two eat like Delilah, the lamb lung might be best. Of course, they’ll take anything!
I’m sure my dogs would love eating lungs and tracheas and ligaments and scrotums and…
They sound frightening but I bet they are so good
Lily & Edward
Happy Anniversary to Flea. Great review.
Mr. N would like the lamb lung.
My Frankie would love to try the Jones Natural Chews Lamb Lung Puffs. Flea is such an awesome woman! We had the wonderful pleasure of being Chewy’s foster parents before his perfect family came along. Thanks!
Ha – you are most creative with your giveaway! Normally, I would be able to help you finish that song but I have a head injury from walking into a bookshelf. Hey – that’s a good excuse, right? It’s ok to laugh, I am graceful like a gazelle.
those look delish! we often choke on chews trying to gulp them, or at least the little guys do, so we don’t get them as often as we would like

LOVE your song! My dogs would love to try the lamb lungs.
this is the third blog post we have seen for these! Dakota would LOVE to try the lamb lungs!
I have a serious feeling that the lamb lung puffs would be inhaled here at our house!
Are you sure you don’t want to start a career as a songwriter? You seem to have a knack for it!
I want to enter- I would love to win the lamb lung puffs! I already know Shiloh loves them.
OMD!!!! That was such a great version of the Garth Brooks song!!!!! I even sang it in my head to the tune of the original song! hahahaha!!!! Great job!

My pup Stella would be howling with delight to try the lamb lung puffs! Thanks so much!
Gwynn would love to try that lamb lung stuff 🙂 There are some things I’m willing to cook for him myself, and others (lamb lung) that I wouldn’t even know where to buy raw, even if i thought I could stomach dehydrating it!
My basset hound, Norman, LOVES these treats! We’re tried them based on your review and a few other personal friend recommendations and Norman cannot stop eating – although, that could be a basset hound thing. Ha! I normally try to make homemade treats because I like to know what goes in Norman’s food, but these were great! Thank you.
Thanks for the giveaway, my dogs would love to try the lamb lung puffs.
I would love to be entered to win the Lamb Lung Puffs.
As gross at they sound, my dog would probably also like the Lamb Lung Puffs! Actually, he would like ANY kind of treat at all!
Great article! I will definitely try to give these treats to my dog. They really sound yummy! Have you tried the doggie pupcakes here? : http://www.wannasharethis.com/the-7-best-homemade-dog-treat-recipes/
