Question 1

Dingo sticks at local petsmart are made in cambodia or vietnam. are the dingo sticks sold by amazon these days still from china?

Accepted Answer

I usually buy the green dental sticks - some sold on Amazon are advertised “non-China.” Those that I’ve received are made in Vietnam. My toy poodle has done fine for years. Until October 2019 - came home to find vomiting x 3, prolific diarrhea. Thought it was the sticks. She had been getting sick a couple times in previous 2 weeks that seemed to be related to the sticks, but not consistently enough to be sure. End of story, her diarrhea continued,  though less intense, sometimes blood-tinged. Vet said “hemorrhagic gastroenteritis” which starts from dehydration (“it happens” and “not sure what really starts it.”)  Got better with IV fluids, antibiotics, bland diet. (No steroids or anything).  I asked about the sticks, they asked if I’d recently opened a new bag. Yes, I had. Threw that bag away, waited a month (per vet’s instructions) to retry, new bag, different lot number, everything fine.  ALSO: when my dog was released to come home, the vet said, “we’ve had an "epidemic" of dogs with the same thing over the last couple of days.”  My lawn guy’s dog had same thing too (goes to different vet). so IDK if it was the sticks at all - could be coincidence. But, the vet didn’t seem too worried, she asked the question about the new bag as if dogs can get sick from any treat, if it’s a “bad bag.”  These sticks are one of very few treats that my dog will actually chew, rather than try to bury, and she needs to chew for her oral hygiene. She absolutely loves them.

Question 2

Are these even beef rawhide or are they something disgusting, like cat or dog rawhide. they're from china, so how do we know?

Accepted Answer

I don't care what they're made from.  My dog pretty much refuses most kinds of dry treats, but he LOVES these.  He's had 2 or 3 a day for the past 5 years and couldn't be happier.

Question 3

I cannot find the calorie count of the Dingo Twist anywhere.  Does anyone know?

Accepted Answer

Not sure about calories but have you ever tasted one?  I have a very small dog and she figured out that only the red part is what she wants.  And I saw her struggling so bad to get the outside rawhide off that I started helping her get it off.  One time after I got that outside white rawhide off I started chewing the end to play with her and the Red Part is PURE SALT!!!  I couldn’t believe how salty.
