| Walmart bought treats. So on my toby's birthday, I thought I'd buy him a box of MilkBones mini's from Walmart. I opened the box, put it in his treat container like usual. Then last night, as I was cleaning up, I saw some bugs around his treat container so I flicked them off and wiped the top off. As I was leaving, I opened the treat container and then took one as usual. I looked at the milkbone, and I saw holes in the milkbones. They're perfect holes too. So I went back to check if the other milkbones had holes in them... And then to my surprise, there were bugs inside the container. I shook the container and more came out from the milkbones!! To make the long story short, I immediately put water in that container to kill the bugs and dumped it out. I'm never buying any treats from walmart. I dont know what those bugs were, but bugs ARE bugs. I now hate Walmart's doggie aisle.

YT 2000 Club Member | dog I think those treats are nust in the bos and bugs can get to them. I only give my Yorkies Newmans Own treats. They are good for them and come sealed up in a package. I am so glad you did not use those treats. I would not feed Milkbones. Give them more nutritious treats. |

| *sigh* I don't even know why I bothered with the milkbones. I usually give him Avoderm baked treats. Never ever again.

| I say no one ever go to Walmart to buy the treats there. I'm just glad that he didn't get any treats from me. I just hope my mom and uncle didn't give him any though. :| (Makes me worrieddddd.)

| I think I'm going to send both companies an email. Thanks ! I still can't get over the bugs. I don't want to give my dog any doggie cookies or any treats right now. @_@
