I heard that some treats that say made in usa, are indeed, manufactured in usa, but the ingredients still come from china. anyone know about that?

these are made in China. I do use them. I smell every piece before I give it (should not smell musty or sweet). And I never give them if I am not supervising. The vegetable glycerin is what hurts the dogs sometimes. They don't coat the pieces evenly. But my dogs need meat treats in the morning and these have worked for years.

I have been using this brand of dog treats for a coupe of years with no problem. Being made in the USA does not necessarily mean all the ingredients were also from the US. I wish it were so. Even then, there have been many recalls (due to contamination), of various products that were and are 100% USA grown or produced. Our government does not feel it is cost effective to staff enough people to check our and our pets food so we just have to take our chances!

If I remember, I'll look tonight for you. I have a long haired Chi and she's been eating these treats for years ... LOVES THEM. Never had a problem.

They are made in China and my vet said these type treats (no matter where they are made) have been found to cause problems. I have stopped buying them (which has made my dog unhappy as he loves them).

As far as I know all the ingredients are from the USA. It is definitely Made in America. I don't feed my pets anything made in China. The only thing my pets get from outside the US are Brazilian Rawhide and some treats made in Canada.I think your pet will enjoy this canned duck, mine did.

On the packaging, it states that they're sorted and packaged in the USA. However here's a blip from their website: "Most of our Himalayan Dog Chew (made with Yak and Cow Milk) comes from the shaded region (in the map to the right) of the Himalayas in Nepal. Remaining come from a Dairy Farm (made with Cow Milk) in Moses Lake, WA." So yes, a tiny region of the Himalayas is located in China, but I think that these treats shouldn't be lumped in with the other inferior and potentially dangerous treats coming from China. These aren't the typical factory made junk products we've all been told to avoid. On the packaging, it states that they're sorted and packaged in the USA.

Redbarn Pet foods are made in the USA!! You're right to be concerned. We can't be too careful these days with the crap that's coming out of China! Also, I researched every ingredient in this food (I lost a dog to cancer and I attribute it in part to the dog food I used). Anyway...I've used this food many times...in all flavors and I've been very happy with it. It's convenient and my dog loves it!

I am extremely careful not to buy anything for my dogs that is made in China, so I know that these are USA made. If I have any question about the origin of a product, I always call to confirm the information. BTW, my dogs love these.....

I'm sorry . . . I have no idea! The product did not work for my Havanese (too large), but unless they are specifically labeled "Made in USA", I would assume they are not of US origin. After all the problems with the foreign treats, USA-made products usually put that out front-and-center.

They are a product of China. I think the confusing part is that they show up when you ask for products made in the USA. There are even stickers on some of the products saying USA. Apparently, they are made in China from USA Dept. Of Agriculture ok'd chicken and then radiated once they are back here. Maybe I misunderstood what was said on the site, but it is certainly a misrepresentation on their part. My dogs love them and have always been fine, but , having said that, I started using them when I still thought they were made here and was just lucky my dogs didn't have a problem.

It says on the back: "All USA Ingredients Made in the USA" The contact info on the bag is 1-800-880-2327 A Division of Wixon, Inc. St. Francis, WI 53235. That is all directly from the back of the bag. I just want to say that my boys love these treats, and the price is just right. I also love the fact that they are so low in calories, 3 per treat.

Here is the answer to the question they posted on their website under FAQS:Where are Milk-Bone dog treats made? "All Milk-Bone Dog Biscuits and dog treats are produced at our facilities here in the U.S. The majority of ingredients are sourced from the U.S. Like most pet companies, we source a limited amount of minor ingredients, such as important nutritional supplements or preservatives, from other countries due to limited availability in the U.S. We want to assure you that our strict U.S. quality and operations standards apply equally to all of our ingredients, regardless of the country of origin." My experience is that vitamins, supplements and additives are sourced from the "world Market" which essentially means China. Frankly, you can make your own tartar reducing chews easily enough. there are recipes on ehow under How to Make Tartar Control Dog Treats Read more : http://www.ehow.com/how_6762488_make-tartar-control-dog-treats.html

I checked on the bag yesterday. No it is not made in the good old USA, but in China. I hope this answers your question. My dogs really love them.

That is the first thing I check because I will NEVER feed my dog kids anything made in China. I also share posts on Facebook regarding Chinese-made treats for dogs. You can buy these at pet stores as well like Petco and Petsmart. My only problem with them is they don't last long since I feed the smaller treats to my larger dogs. These are made in the USA. They are not like the normal Nylabone long-lasting chews, these are chewable, grain-free and made from natural ingredients.

These say made in the U.S., however, I heard some companies are buying from china and just packaging here. Hard to find honest companies anymore!

All resources are showing these are made in the USA. The dog treats causing problems are those that are "Jerky" or "Jerky style".

Alice Miller: You need to learn to ask your questions more precisely when dealing with corporations. You could never be an attorney! The question should have been "Do ANY of the ingredients come from outside the USA?" I asked this question and found out that some of the ingredients do come from China! Proudly claiming that "Greenies are made in the USA" is misleading when ingredients are purchased from around the world. Contaminated Chinese ingredients have repeatedly killed pets, so why do they continue to use them?

Don't know about the 'made in USA' everything I see says made in china. We give our minn pinn and Chihuahua 1/2 piece each a day and have seen NO adverse reaction except that they DEMAND their treat daily.

Hi, I bought this a while ago and didn't keep the packaging, but on petsmart's website, it says made in USA. It's made with vegetable coloring too, in case you want to know. Hopefully I helped you, I know many people on pet forums recommend these, so I figured it was made in the US. You can see for yourself on PetSmart's website.
