This Could Save Your Dogs Life!!!

That's horrible but a WEEK?

I never knew the dangers of them until my cocker spaniel almost choked on one. Also, this is kinda gross, but I would notice small chunks of it coming out in her poop now and then, meaning that they don't dissolve even after going through their digestive system. I quit buying them altogether.

I have never purchased greenies and never will especially since everybody has told such awful horror stories.

I am very sorry for your loss I can't imagin how that has impacted you and your families lives.

I give bella those big blue Nylabones with the bumps on it. She just chews it or will play fetch with it, but once they start to fall apart I go and get another one at pet shoppe.
We have never had an issue with them, but I will be sure to keep a closer eye on her when she chews on it.

Thanks you for the answer....I googled it as I guess I will have to do most things rather than asking on here. SOmetimes I feel like I have invaded some private club where I most unwelcome.

Now, I was in a forum the other day where a vet tech works, she said that they've never had anyone come in with a dog having problems from the "new greenies", but have from nylabones..I love the greenies, I will continue to give them to my dogs..have you done the water test on them? If not, do so..they do dissolve, and they DO help with their teeth and gums..My vet sells the new ones, and I will continue giving them..I have seen them do more good with my dogs teeth than anything else.

I just did a post on Kalina and the Smokehouse treat she choked on...now I'm worried sick that it is still in there just waiting to dislodge and kill her!! How did that happen?? Did it go into her lung or trachea or what?

dont say that, we dont read all posts before making one thats not fair to judge us like that!!!! but we're sorry

So sorry. Once it came out on the news how dangerous they were, we threw ours out. Now everything we give them is in the smallest pieces to avoid chocking. We even break their hard food up to be on the safe side. It can be a chore, but worth my time if it prevents them from choking.
