Subject: Warning on dog bones
I would like to warn all dog lovers out there to be very careful about
the dog treats that you give your dogs. Last week I bought a "Real Ham
Bone" made by Dynamic Pet Products of Missouri from Walmart. Here is
what it looks like: . The label says it is made with "100% Food Grade
Ingredients" and it isn't made from China . I thought that meant that
this would make a good treat for my dogs. Boy was I wrong.
Trace, my dog, enjoyed chewing on this bone. It did not splinter or
anything, in fact there is quite a large piece of it still left. Then in
the evening she started vomiting. She spent the next day at a
veterinarian' s office where she was diagnosed with a blockage of the
colon. That night she endured a 4 hour surgery at Brandon Veterinary
Specialists where the vet picked out small round pellets of the bone, up
to the size of about a b-b. The next morning she was moved to Florida
Veterinary Specialist critical care unit. Again in the evening she had
another 2 hour surgery, because the blockage had caused poison in her
body. She passed away at 4:30 the next afternoon.
In the memory of Trace, please pass this email on to all of the dog
lovers that you know. This type of bone is sold in all of the stores
under several different manufacturers names. I would assume they all
may do the same thing. Even if they don't splinter, they can cause a
blockage.
