Our boxers each got one Friday night. Saturday morning, after throwing up atleast 15 times, our eldest boy had to go to the vet. He was so dehydrated from vomiting he received subcutaneous fluids for about an hour, a shot, and is now on meds for a week for gastritis. He was throwing up chucks of splintered bones (even in my car on the way to the doc...)which i took with me to have checked out. He is on a cottage cheese and yogurt diet per the vet for a few days. Hopefully he threw everything up, it is only Monday but seems to feel a lot better. A sick dog and $120 vet bill later, we decided to stick with uncooked bones only! (I'm not complaining about the money for the vet, it's just the principle of it...makes for a costly treat if you ask me!) I'm just so glad that he is ok, and I'm reading about alot of complaints after our incident. I'm sorry to hear about your loss. These should be taken off of the market.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08513534682703163822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568397636794936636.post-56357096784272925392010-02-16T14:10:24.033-05:002010-02-16T14:10:24.033-05:00I am sorry to read this a year later, it is Februa...I am sorry to read this a year later, it is February 2010. I hope by now there has been some type of resolution. Not that this will help any of the emotional pain, but there should be some retribution by now. <br /><br />I just fed my dog one of these bones and am hoping the same thing does not happen to my dog!<br /><br />At the very least they need to list a warning on the packaging!<br /><br />You should also send copies of these letters to all of the stores that sell this product (WalMart) legal departments. list the cc at the bottom of the letter you send to them and they will have to listen since all of the stores that sell their products will be informed on this terrible event.<br /><br />My deepest sympathies.dellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03225730377421667692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568397636794936636.post-41958008779124805802009-01-11T18:56:00.000-05:002009-01-11T18:56:00.000-05:00Makes me sad, but I wish I was also surprised.

She said a splinter caused the death of one of her Scotties, and yet, people still give their dogs nylabones. <BR/><BR/>I have also heard that Greenies are not safe. <BR/><BR/>People tend to think that by giving their dogs things like these, they won't need to brush their dogs' teeth...but, like humans, dogs need a good brushing!<BR/><BR/>Many people still tend to say that IF you want to give your dog a bone, give it RAW instead of anything processed.....<BR/><BR/>My Scotties get raw bones randomly and the only treats given are generally Evo natural treats. <BR/><BR/>I am so sorry for this poor woman. Our dogs are not "just" dogs, but our faithful little companions whom we love just like children.Katyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06558961417235143567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568397636794936636.post-50041755406352006212009-01-08T01:51:00.000-05:002009-01-08T01:51:00.000-05:00OMG...that is horrible!

Please don't give up on this mission...contact every agency and be relentless with the company! Contact your local news agency!!! They love stories like this and probably have an investigative reporter you can talk to that will help. This info needs to get out to the public...I will be sending an email out to all my doggie friends.

So I asked at the counter if they had any in the back and was told they no longer carry them. Why? Because they have had cases of dogs choking on them....!!!<BR/><BR/>They said there were enough cases that they just didn't feel comfortable carrying the product any more. Good grief.

The old chattel concept is being abandoned in many jurisdictions. I suggest you contact some of the rescue groups in your area for legal referrals. Poison is poison and Trace was poisoned.
