Many of the pet chewables and treats are made or processed in countries such as China, India, Mexico, Vietnam, etc. Is it worth the risk to purchase them? Your thoughts.

Heck no. I wouldn't feed that stuff to a dead dog.
Toss your dogs a beaver foot couple times a week.

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out why we buy any food or medical supplies from foreign countries who consider us their adversary (which seems to be most countries).

Never buy imported pet stuff they send toxic toys for our kids they don’t care about our pets either.

My dog loves ice cubes for treats. She gets moose leg bones that are cut into 4’ish inch pieces also. I take them after she is done with them to wolf sets.

No not safe. It may cost 15 dollars for a bag of good ones. But we'll worth it. May need to go to a decent feed store for them. I don't mean TSC either.

Never bought treats for any of my dogs. Seems like my love was good enough, may be wrong, but they never said otherwise.

A dried back beaver foot is a great treat for most dogs.

Dog biscuits made in North America would be my choice my dog never walked away from one yet.

I've seen my dog eat some pretty disgusting things so I don't think twice about where their treats are from .

That’s like buying a good AR and putting Russian ammo through it to me.

Wasn't too long ago they did a big recall on Chink treats because they had anti-freeze in them and were killing dogs.


Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon.

Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor.
