That bone treat may be deadly for your canine friends.
The FDA has received 68 reports of pet illnesses and approximately 15 deaths related to bone treats.
Unlike uncooked bones that one might get from the butcher, bone treats are processed and dried through a smoking or baking process. According to the FDA, they may also contain other ingredients, including preservatives, seasoning, and smoke flavoring.
After consumption of these treats, dogs have reportedly faced digestive tract blockages, choking, vomiting, diarrhea, bleeding, and cuts and wounds in the mouth. In 15 of the reported instances, the dog died. The illnesses arose from a variety of treats, including those described as “ham bones,” “rib bones,” “pork femur bones,” and “smokey knuckle bones.”
