Sorry I haven't been on much, I should be back full force mid January. Received the following via email this am, just wanted to pass it on.

P.S. Sappire would vomit after she would eat them, so we stopped giving them to her. That company is run by Meanies!!!

I have a warning to pass on with a story to tell of my own.....
On the way back from the Dobe National this year, I was walking one of the
dogs at the airport waiting for the owner to return our rental car when the
dog decided to throw up.....I was shocked to see a mass of green rubber-like
material and immediately called the owner. The mass looked like something
you would see in the pad under a carpet. I was assured the dog did not shred
anything...and that the only thing the dog had been given to eat recently
was a "Greenie"...one of those formed green dog treats that look like a
toothbrush....
.I couldn't believe one of those pressed dog treats would
reconstitute into
what looked like a mass of foam rubber pieces!
Well, after getting home my friend did an experiment....
cut up one of those
things and soaked it in water overnight....l
ow and behold a mass of foam
rubber crap! Certainly NOT digestible! We both made a note to never feed
those things again...and then last night in the Seattle area the newscast
did a piece on...you guessed it GREENIES! A whole story about how dogs are
DYING from blockages after eating those stupid things! Here is a link to the
article....tur
ns out they are NOT 100% digestible....
DUH!
