That's when Chanel would do it too - which is what prompted me to talk to my vet who told me what I posted above......She barfed every time she ate some - so I just keep them from doing it.....Cats are different based on what he said - it helps them sooth an upset tummy - with dogs it has adverse affects
so anyone who has a chewer is lucky if they aren't getting ill. I should google it - cause all this was years ago

There's one place on our walks they both try to take a bite
(plus I'm in an apartment now and don't trust the grass which is another reason I keep them from making a meal out of it)
