What Size Marrow Bone Should I Get for My Dog?

Choosing a Bubs Bone starts with your dog’s weight, but mouth size and chewing habits matter too. Use the size chart below to compare our small, medium and large smoked beef marrow bones.

Bubs Bones size chart

Dog’s weight Approximate bone length Shop this size
Under 20 lb 2 inches Small smoked marrow bone
20–60 lb 4 inches Medium smoked marrow bone
Over 60 lb 6+ inches Large smoked marrow bone

These weight ranges are a starting point, not a guarantee of suitability. Each bone is a natural product, so shape, thickness and length vary.

Check the fit before offering a bone

  • Do not offer a bone your dog can fit entirely inside their mouth or swallow.
  • Consider your dog’s mouth size and whether they try to crush or swallow chews.
  • If your dog falls between sizes, contact us for product dimensions before ordering.

Chewing guidance

Hard bones can damage teeth and may break into pieces. A larger size does not remove those risks. Ask your veterinarian whether a hard bone is appropriate for your dog, especially for puppies or dogs with dental or digestive concerns.

Always supervise chewing. Take the bone away if it cracks, splinters, develops sharp edges or becomes small enough to swallow. Discard loose pieces. These bones are intended for supervised chewing, not to be eaten whole.

What is in a Bubs Bone?

One ingredient: beef marrow bone. We use grass-fed, USDA-inspected beef and slow-smoke our bones in small batches, without added flavors, preservatives or fillers.
