Greenies & Health Issues

Joe, like most dogs, loves Greenies.

Our vet asked how much of them Joe ate and how often. Apparently, vets all over the country are seeing life-threatening bowel-obstruction problems with them. Owners should take care to feed their dog the appropriate size treat, and limit the number.

Here's an article about the Greenies and other risky dog treats (for readability on this page the website address takes 2 lines), http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/

I think it's a good product, but going forward Joe is only going to get the tiniest sized Greenie for puppies, and I'm watching him with those pig ears, too.
