"Do not buy this for your pets. Give them all natural treats.
A friend of mine gets bones from a butcher and bakes the bones and dips them in beef or chicken broth. They love getting the marrow out of the bone, as well as chewing the leftover meat from the bone.
Beef hocks are another great treat, boiled then baked. Just enough meat and gristle to make doggie happy."
Do some research on cooked bones for dogs. Cooked bones can splinter & damage the intenstines. Many people give the leftover steak bones as treats too.
Raw bones, including chicken bones are okay to feed because they are soft & can be digested. Cooked bones are brittle & have sharp edges & that's the problem.

I’ve had dogs on the Bones and Raw Food (BARF) diet since 1998.
No processed crap...only fresh meat, fruits and veggies. My dogs range in size from Irish Wolfhound to Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Better health, better coats, smaller dumps and you don’t have to pay to have their teeth cleaned.
I can’t believe that so many Americans buy goods from people who want to kill us...especially food products.
BUY AMERICAN. It may take longer to find and you may pay more, but it’s worth it.

I buy raw chicken parts (don’t cook them the bones will choke them) and feed them to my dog. He’s alive and happy at this time!
