| Fish Skin Chews Hi Y'all - Just need some advice, please. Barking Deals deal of the day is Fish Skin Chews. I have never heard of them but I am always looking for something new for them to chew on. Are these acceptable for Yorkies? I have mine on a grain free diet right now due to ichy skin so my treat list is limited! Thanks for your help! |

| Toki really enjoys them! She doesn't get them very often and they don't last long in terms of chewing but are supposed to be a great source of Omega-3s. I know Honest Kitchen has Beams and the ones I get are from a local retailer (don't remember the specific brand). I'd grab a few to see if your pups like them and don't have any other issues to the treats. Again, they won't last nearly as long a a bully stick or Himalayan chew if that is what you're looking for in terms of chewing time and keeping your pups occupied but salmon skin rolls are still a nice treat to give occasionally anyway |

| From: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/3392445-post7.html "The rules are: 1. If the company does not add the ingredient it does not have to be listed on the label. 2. Any commercial fishing vessel in the U.S. that is catching fish to be supplied to the pet food market has to preserve the fish taken onboard with Ethyoxyquin. Because Blue doesn't add it, they don't have to list it. Ethoxyquin is usually burned off in the food processing cycle, but they do not test for it, nor can they insure that it is completely gone from their product before it is offered for sale. What if someone turns the oven off early for a batch here and there? The only way to be sure you are not feeding it to your dog, is to not feed them anything that contains fish." I'd also be concerned about Mercury content.
