Default WARNING ABOUT GREENIES DOG TREATS!!!

I have been reading all over the net that the Greenies Dog Treats have been responsible for deaths in dogs as they cannot digest them. They ran an article about them on CNN.

I am just passing this on to everyone as a caution because I would hate for anything to happen to your pets. All I know about this is what I've been reading on the net.

Thanks for posting. My mom told me about this a few months ago. She knows I'm always trying new treats for my dogs and said to definitely steer clear of these.

Oh my...thank you so much for posting this. I signed up yesterday to get a free sample of these treats, but now I know so I will throw them straight in the trash. I don't even want to think of what could have happened if I had fed them to my pets.
