Talking Bone fragments in Stella and Chewy's

I'm feeding her Duck, Duck, Goose - the freeze-dried disks. I rehydrate it in her bowl and since it floats like a light hockey puck, I do break it down for her. This is when I noticed the bone fragments. I was breaking it down slowly in the water with my fingers. They are very small but still, I was worried that they may scratch/puncture her throat so I used the meat tenderizer's flat part to break them down. I realize that any raw food will have bones, I just expected that they would be pulverized to the point where the dogs get the nutrients without the splintering. I just got back from the pet store where the gal was very surprised to hear I found bones. Not a lot of people re-hydrate this food, let alone do it slowly with their fingers, so it's no surprise that not too many people would've noticed them, but there are definitely bones in there. I cannot stop feeding her S&C though, because she may revolt! She loves it. I have been mixing it with some Orijen and she totally ignores the Orijen in the bowl.
