"Our dog really likes these treats and we don't have to worry about her eating rawhide."
"My dog loved the flavor but the treats did not love her back. They upset her stomach so bad she was howling, Luna being a 20 pound poodle isn’t usually a howler but she had to express her pain somehow. Nothing but liquid when we took her outside to use the restroom"
