Even when the company is a reputable company, and makes good quality dog/cat food, they still have to purchase ingredients, especially for added vitamins and minerals. Many of the vitamins, as well as prescription pharmaceuticals, that we use today are coming from China, and that is true for both people vitamins and pet vitamins.
Since the regulation from China is pretty limited sometimes, we have received all kinds of products from China that are not safe for people to use.
We usually give our little dogs small chunks of hot dogs as a treat, and that will bypass any problems with imported treats that are harmful to the dogs. Since Chpper is old and his teeth are not so good anymore, he much prefers the soft treats to hard chewy ones anyway.
One brand that seems to be safe and that the dogs do like is the Purina Beyond treats. I was given some of those to product test a few months ago, and the dogs really liked them.
I did have to break Chipper's little biscuits into small bites since he can't chew the whole one ; but they seemed to taste great to the dogs.
The salmon ones really smelled like salmon, and seemed to me like they would smell great to a dog looking for a treat.
While we will probably stick with the soft hot dogs as the main treat, I do recomend the Purina Beyond treats as well.
