my beloved dog, Twister, died from fanconi syndrome from eating these treats. I felt so bad that I gave them to him. He died of renal failure. They have not been able to definitively tie the treats to a reason for this but the treats are made in China and the Chinese won't allow inspections of the plants. I thought I was giving a healthy treat to my dog but I was slowly poisoning him. The brand I used was Smokehouse but any dried jerkey from China should be avoided.
