Waggin Train Chicken Jerky Tenders 40oz Review

Average Reviews:

My beagle absolutely loves these, but we think they may have gotten him sick. He started having diarrhea, which stopped when he went on an exclusive chicken and rice diet. Once he was better, we stayed with the same diet, but gave him a tiny bit of the chicken treat (because we thought it was healthy -- it's just chicken, right?). The diarrhea was back almost immediately. After the Walmart recall this week of a different brand of chicken strips, I'm scared to give these to him anymore. I don't care it's irradiated or not, something's not right with this food. Chicken is a hard meat to process -- lots of bacteria. I'd rather be safe with food from a responsible, high-end, organic pet food company than risk my dog's health with this product.

My elderly canine (14-16) loves this treat. The only drawback is this product is from China... and food contamination problems are still a possibility, so caution is needed.

Beggin Strips Dog Treats 10 oz (283 g) Review

Okay, so my dog is basically a pig. She'll eat almost anything you offer her. But I always enjoy giving her these! They look and smell like real pieces of bacon, and I actually wish I could try one myself! I usually have to rip them in half, because my dog is a little too small to be eating a whole one. But that makes for longer-lasting treats, if you think about it. Overall, I'd say that if your dog is a little carnivore or bacon eater, they'll love these! And since they're easily ripped into tiny pieces, you can also have a whole training session with your dog using only one strip! I speak for my dog when I say, "Hooray for Beggin' Strips!".

Beggin' Littles, Bacon Flavor Dog Snacks, 6-Ounce Bags (Pack of 10) Review

Beggin' Littles, Bacon Flavor Dog Snacks, 6-Ounce Bags (Pack of 10)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My German Shepherd Dog loves these (Bacon flavor) with a passion, but we hesitate to give these to him very often because the ingredients aren't the best, for any dog. The few times we give these to him, we break them into smaller pieces; longer-lasting flavor, less not so good ingredients. Still looking for a healthy, tasty, lower-calorie snack he can have more often.

Waggin Train Chicken Jerky Tenders Dog Treats - 48oz. Bag Review

This post is in response to the death of my dog Chelsea. My dog was a healthy border collie mix. She had shown no signs of any illness until one night I come home to find her lethargic at the bottom of the stairs. She could not move or stand up. Thankfully we have a 24 hour vet nearby. She was taken immediately and given a check up and had blood work done. The blood work came back with high spikes in her liver enzymes which the vet said was due to something that she ingested. The only thing that that had been introduced to her diet recently was Waggin Train chicken jerky treats. I had been feeding them to my dog for a few months (she loved them). I immediately stopped feeding her the treats. After being off the treats for a week she had another round of blood work and her liver enzymes started to return to normal. We had 1 more round of blood scheduled in 2 weeks to make sure that her liver has returned to normal. But unfortunately Chelsea did not live that long. I woke up on the morning of May 30th to her having a Gran Mal Seizure due to high toxin levels and she died in my arms. After her death I started researching Waggin Train Jerky treats and was amazed to find the large number of people that had posted instances of illness or death of their pet and they felt very strongly that the treats contributed to the illness or death. The FDA has issued an advisory concerning the feeding of chicken jerky products from China. Based on the fact that my dog had high liver enzymes and the vet attributed it to her ingesting something toxic and the fact that her liver enzymes started to return to normal after I stopped feeding her the treats I believe that the Waggin Train chicken jerky treats that I had been feeding her contributed to her death. I am not saying that every treat or every bag is dangerous but with them coming from China you never know what was added to them in the Chinese facility. My suggestion, stay away from them and you will also stay away from a $1000.00 vet bill like I had as well as the loss of a pet. JUST BEWARE. If you have experienced similar problems pass the word around. You can also file a complaint with the FDA. My suggestion is to do your own research, just Google waggin train jerky illness. You can read comments from other pet owners and make you own decision as to whether you want to feed this brand of treat or any other that is imported from China to your pet. I am posting this in memory of my beloved Chelsea and hope that the post will help to save the life of other pets. As consumers we should be able to question the safety of a product if we feel that it has caused harm. After my first post a friend that Lives in Las Vegas said that they had given their dog these treats and their dog had bloody diarrhea so they stopped feeding their dog the treats and their dogs bowels returned to normal.

Newman's Own Organics Chicken Dog Treats(10 Oz) Medium to Large Size Dog Treats Review

Newman's Own Organics Chicken Dog Treats(10 Oz) Medium to Large Size Dog Treats
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Newman's Own Organic Chicken Treats for Dogs are a big hit with my three dogs; a miniature poodle, a black lab and a standard doxie. Made in Canada these have the following analysis:
Crude Protien: 11.5% min
Crude Fat: 8.5% min
Crude Fiber: 6.0% max
Moisture: 10.0% max
INGREDIENTS: Barley flour*, ground chicken*, carrots*, apples*, canola oil, rolled oats, natural flavor. Note: (*) indicates certified organic.
SIZE: Medium sized in this case means 'heart-shaped', about 1.5" x 1.5". You could actually break them in half for small dogs.
While this is not supposed to replace your dog's food, they'd like it if it did! The reason I give it 4 stars is because of the 'premium price'. I picked them up at a local grocery closeout store for $2 a bag with 18 months left until the the 'best before' date. My doggies haven't said anything about them being stale, so I guess Newman's Own has done it again.
CONCLUSION: Organic, high quality dog treats. Nice product.

Dogswell Mellow Mut for Dogs, Chicken Breast, With Natural Vitamin E, 5-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6) Review

Dogswell Mellow Mut for Dogs, Chicken Breast, With Natural Vitamin E, 5-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We originally bought this brand due to the claim that it uses "All Natural Cage Free Chickens" as well as the "No Hormones" and "No Antibiotics," etc. But the items were surprisingly better in quality than the package claimed. These strips are real strips of dried chicken, not just processed "meats" as some companies may use. This particular flavor became our household favorite due to the effect it has on our easliy excited black lab, Hayden.
At first I thought the ingredients were just light flavoring, since all of the packages seem to contain the exact same looking treats. But, the smell is very strong. This flavor contains chamomile and lavender - which claims to calm your dog. This claim is very true for our dog. Only after a couple of nights, we noticed a considerable difference in behavior for Hayden. Our dog usually gets wound up in the evening time and continually wants to play even right before we go to bed. After giving Hayden six strips, which is the suggested amount for his body size, he became docile and even sleepy before our bed time.
I usually don't believe the statements that most products like this claim, but I can say we have noticed a big difference. Granted the effect is short term and can't be predicted for really young dogs or "unfixed" dogs (for comparison our dog Hayden weighs 85 lbs, is 6 years old, and has been fixed).
These are the draw backs though. 1) This is an expensive way to treat large dogs EVERY DAY, so maybe not realistic for everyone. 2) The effects may only last a few hours, so overly exciteable dogs may be able to "battle through" the effects. 3) Flavor is very strong and very odd (lavender?) some pickier dogs could turn their noses up to the smell and flavor of these treats.
Just a note - Dogswell Happy Heart Chicken Breast, Flax Seed & Taurine, 3-Count 16-Ounce Bags seems to have the opposite effect on our dog. This product contains taurine - like Redbull - so maybe that's the reason. I'd recommend that Happy Heart flavored treats should be avoided late in the evening.
