| OMG - STOP FEEDING WAGGIN TRAIL Chicken Jerky TJ and Roxy LOVE this chicken jerky, but with everything going on lately, I thought - maybe there's something not right about that stuff too! My heart and mind is racing. I really hope that I haven't been hurting TJ and Roxy this whole time! They have been eating it for a while now! I have stock piled about 5 bags...OMG - They are being returned to Costco ASAP! http://forums.ebay.com/db1/thread.js...463956&start=0 This stuff is NO GOOD!!!!! |

| Oh gosh! We have to really be careful now. I don't feed them any treats like that mainly because Miko has a compromised liver. I give them yogurt, green apples (cut up and peeled), stuff like that.

| Yogurt, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, apples, bananas and dried fruits.......dates, figs, prunes and apricots, are healthy treats. I wouldn't be buying ANY dog food, dog treats or chewey's. Stick with the real stuff and also make your own cookies for them. |

| Too many weird things going on with dog food. I just back from the vet. Dezi had to get blood work done and urine sample. I was feeding her Nutro dry and wet in the evening. All of the pouches I had were on the recall list. So I am praying that her levels are fine. I will find out tomorrow. |

| These too are suppose to be natural and no preservatives... But, what I never noticed nor did I know what it meant was, at the bottom of the bag is a symbol that reads somthing like this: Sanitized by Irradiation for Freshness This is just horrible! I can't believe I have been feeding this everyday for months now. In the begginning, I would give them whole ones to be quiet somewhere - so they were occupied! Then I used to cut and grate fine pieces ontop of their food to entice them to eat. But, lately I have been cutting down, they were only getting a tiny piece here and there - for good potty behavior. WOW, I just can't beleive how stupid I was, to think that I was 'stock piling' this horrible garbage - from China! I pray to God, that my babies are ok |

| ME TOO! I had no idea - this Chicken Jerkey - was done that way! How disgusting is this? I have been feeding this for almost a year! I am so livid right now! I just don't know what to do. Roxy had 2 LP surgeries (Aug 2006 and November 2006) They did blood work, nothing outrangeous I am sure, but I guess if somethinf didn't seem right they would say something to me? And TJ will have his LP in May, so he will need blood work for that. I don't know, unless, I call the Vet and ask if he feel we should do blood work now. This SUCKS!!! I had NO IDEA that they shot the jerkey with Gamma Rays!!! I am so upset with how stupid I was |

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Please let me know what he says! Do you mind PM'ing me when you find out incase I don't see your update if you post it? Tatum goes to the vet on Friday for more shots (ugh...I'm dreading it since she started throwing up the last time) - so I will ask mine then too...but please let me know what you find out!

| Irradiated for freshness? That doesn't sound good.... . I never gave Pepper chicken jerky but just recently bought some 'natural dried chicken breasts fillets'. I don't have the label anymore but I'll hold on with those treats until I check the label again . That's terrible, I hope all the babies that have been eating the jerky are fine...
