Chicken Jerky Treats

Chicken Jerky treats have been suspicious for causing kidney illness in dogs for some time.  These treats have been continued to be imported and sold in pet stores nationwide.  Not enough evidence has been available to link the suspected illness directly to the treats but the FDA is ramping up warning for pet owners.  The warning is specifically for treats MADE IN CHINA but personally I suspect many of the treats labeled as made in the USA are only packaged in the USA from materials made in China so I personally would not recommend the feeding of ANY chicken jerky type treat.  Please visit the FDA warning site below and feel free to call Boulder Veterinary Hospital at 303-442-6262 if you have any concerns about your pet.
