You know I love Petsmart.. But honestly I really wish they would carry some decent treats!! Pretty much all the treats they have are horrible! Filled with wheat, corn and bi products!!

I think I am going to start going to Petco...I think they at least have the "wellness" treats...

I agree...I agree. We have Petsmart & they don't carry NB.

I have to go out of town to Petco.

I did read a post recently about Charlie Bear treats @Petsmart, I think. Anyone know if they r good?

Charlie Bear?? Never seen them.. Wait are those the little bears they look like little teddy bears??? Like a gummy bear kinda, but hard like a cookie?? If so Peanut almost choked to death on one of those when he was about 6 months!

Peanut always gets like "jerky" treats. Soft and easy to break. For some reason he has to have little bites.. If its too big he will look at it, take it, and drop it and wait for me to break it for him LoL.

Look or ask for Charlie Bears as Petsmart carries them. They are shaped like oyster crackers. You can get the natural flavor or cheese flavors. They are low in fat and are a healthy treat.

oh my goodness....well, I've never noticed them, but thanks so much for the warning. So glad Peanut was ok. awww....he probably remembers & he's a little smartie that knows what's best for him now.

Hmm I dont think the treat Peanut choked on is the Charlie Bear treats.. The one he had I got at the "treat bar" at Petco and they were hard little gummy bear looking treats! Yeah its really strange he will not eat anything that he thinks is too big, I guess that is a good thing! I dont mind breaking treats up for him, I am so use to it now I just do it without even thinking of it

lovespandp · 10-25-2009, 07:08 PM

Ohhh these are the ones!! LoL Silly me I have gotten those before! The cranberry flavor.. Peanut loved them but they were too big and too hard to break! haha

I know what you mean. I love PetsMart but they have horrible food and treats. Even PetCo carries healthy food and treats. I started going to a local Pet Store (although they don't sell animals) because they price match and carry good food.

I thought I saw Old Mother Hubbard Bone Treats at Petsmart (that is Wellness).

ChantalB · 10-26-2009, 05:50 AM

I think petsmart is a good place to buy toys, but for the grooming products, treat and food they are so so. They don't even carry Wellness!

I now go to Global and Renspets.com (Canadian store) most of the time.

Yeah I have to go to Petco for food & treats. My kidz love NB Roll Arounds.

Are Bil Jacs bad? I like them because they are chewy and small. I guess I should take a look at the ingredients, but Capone loves them.

luvfla · 10-26-2009, 06:05 AM

My Hubby uses the Bil Jack treats for training. They'll do anything for those!
