Still feeding your pups chicken jerky treats? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I can't believe Purina is the maker of this poisonous product ;( Zoey ate Waggin Train treat and is now sick. My vet and I have filled complaints/cases without the FDA, Waggin Train, and Purina. All my dogs ate them at some point but Zoey ate them everyday

These recalls and the information about these toxic products from China have been all over the news, on and off, for at least 5 years!!!!! I am totally befuddled as to why in the world anyone would CONTINUE to feed these treats to their pets! BUY A DEHYDRATOR AND MAKE YOUR OWN JERKY!!!! JERKEY CONTINUES KILLING DOGS! Just because the stores continue to stock these toxic treats, does not mean you are obligated to buy them and feed them to YOUR baby!!!!! As long as people are willing to buy them, the stores will stock them!!! We have to be intelligent enough to listen to the news, watch TV, and act on what we hear and see!

I know I did bad. Please don't yell at me.

I had previously spoken at length about jerky treats with my vet and he seemed to think it was a lot of hype. Now he can't believe he was blind for so long.

I plan to buy a one or learn how to do it in the oven.

I am not a stupid person. Your post has made me feel worse than I already do which I didn't think was possible.

May you never make any mistakes in your life. Good night

Ugh, I just read about this on my manager's Facebook! I work at Petsmart and really liked the Canyon Creek Ranch brand. But..no more! Threw out what I had left and will no longer be recommending these to my customers!!! Going to email and call corporate too.
