This is what I found.... I'm outraged!!!!!!!!
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States recently cautioned dog owners of a possible link between their dogsbecoming ill and the consumption of chickenjerky products.
This alert comes in the wake of the FDA receiving more than 70 complaints from dog owners whose dogs had eaten the chicken jerky treats and became ill; sadly in a couple of cases the dogs died.
The FDA has yet to determine what caused these dogs' illnesses. Despite extensive testing of the products in question, no contaminant has been found.
The products being investigated by the FDA are Bestro’s Chicken Jerk Stfrom Import-Pingyang Pet Product Co., both sold by Wal Mart. Dogs Dogsthat have become ill have shown some or all of the following symptoms:
decreased food consumption, although some may continue to consume the treats to the exclusion of other foods;
decreased activity or lethargy;
vomiting;
diarrhea, sometimes with blood; and
increased water consumption and/or increased urination.
If your dog has eaten chickenijerky treats and is showing any of the above symptoms, take him to a vet as soon as you can.
