Beware chicken strips from China, always read packages, we thought we were buying good ones but in fine print showed they were made in China, put both of our dogs in acute early renal failure, stopped the strips and they got better. We bought them at Petsupermarket and Walmart |

there are tons of brands, the key is to look for any indication it was made in china, usually small letters |

Here's a link to some previous and similar problems.
http://vdi.sagepub.com/content/19/5/525.abstract Melamine is a plastic used to "improve" protien content of substandard wheat gluten and other products. It's not a food and unfortunatley it's also toxic. In China, products with melamine found their way into infant formula. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Chinese_milk_scandal This resulted in a crackdown (and a few executions), but no doubt the practice continues. Especially in the poorly regulated pet food industry. If you have any of the strips left, I'm sure there would be some interest in testing them. Sorry man, hope your dogs get better. tom ------------------------- add a signature since I'm here in profile anyway |

While you're at it, beware of bologna! I was giving about 2 slices(piece by piece) a day, as a goodie. I started drinking and peeing more. I stopped and he was better. ------------------------- Yo no estoy casado. Pero mi esposa esta casada. |
