I buy the vacuum packed short ribs at Walmart. The ribs are not as large as regular beef ribs. Mine love them. Once the meat is gone they play with the bone for a few more minutes then I throw them away. They are the perfect size for a dachsie. I cut them into 1 bone portions then freeze them on a cookie sheet until frozen, then transfer to a ziplock bag. They don't stick together. I give them frozen so they last longer. YMMV
