Greenies can be dangerous- Please Read

If you give your dogs "greenies" as treats or to help with dental hygiene, please check out the attached link before you hand your pal over another one.

They aren't really as digestable as they claim to be and there have been quite a few cases of injuries and/or deaths as a result. I'm not telling you not to give them to your dogs......but please get all the information you can before you do.

Most of us went thru all this information awhile back and have passed it on. We don't buy greenies anymore and I hope all the newbies here that missed the last time it was discussed reads this now. Thank you for posting.
