Has Glycerin, not good for dogs.
I foster dogs and 2 of the dogs that I fed to, one a chihuahua, another a bigger pitmix dog, got a little diarrhea from consuming these chews. They both ate the same raw diet and when I fed them, half a ring for the chi, and a full ring for the bigger dog, it showed when they went to the bathroom the next day. In a Canadian broadcast news program, CBC Marketplace "Toxic dog treats" they investigated that some dog treats have varying levels of glycerin that make dogs sick to the point of death (forbal esters). Some dogs react more strongly than others, some barely have any affects. None of the pet food companies care if your dog may get sick from the treats nor they may do good quality control. Why do they put a limit on how many rings a dog can have? It's fishy, a dog should be able to consume most of the bag and not get sick.
These treats are cheap, but would not recommend. If you want a chew for your dog, you can get bully sticks in small cuts and big cuts depending on what dog you have. Bully sticks are made from the parts of a bull, not a list of ingredients. Just provide some water too because it's very drying to a dog's mouth like kibble. For puppies, you can get soft toys to get them thru the baby to adult teething phase. Please don't get this chew.
