| This is going to sound strange at first, so be patient. I get bulletins and mailings from consumerreports.org ALL of the time. They investigate defective and unsafe products as well. I would write to them with your evidence. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/index.htm I actually don't trust the company to change anything until they are made to change it. This is a nonprofit consumer advocacy group. If you contact them with your evidence and photos, I think they would see that something is changed.

| OMG, I can't believe that happened to your baby! I'm just glad she's okay and that you saw it in time! Definately notify the company... A product like this is a danger to all our furbabies... and to think I was going to buy one like that a few weeks ago for Mr. Biggs, but changed my mind and got the stick ones instead.

| OMG, of all things to happen! I'm so glad your baby is OK. I have often looked at those round bully sticks and just got an odd feeling in the pit of my stomach, so I never bought one. Thanks for the warning!

| Me too! Consumer Reports actually reviews quite a few pet products. I really think they will write a review at least to warn pet owners.

| Judy, I am going to try it on some other pet products that we have had problems with. Maybe if enough of us do this, things will begin to change. Thanks for the tip.

| I can't believe something like this could happen. We buy things that we think are safer for our babies, and then we find out how wrong we were. Thank you so much for the warning, you may have saved several of our yorkies from injury or worse. I swear, this site is a Godsend to all of us. I have learned so many wonderful things on here. I hope you get your money from that company; if there is anything we can do ; writing letters or calling them, please let us know. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being so on the ball.
