Are these treats made in china? If so, forget it.

There are two different type of products. If you get the PRIME CHIPS, or other prime products, it say they are USA, the others are products of China and I'm with you.....not buying! I did call the manufacturer myself and this is what hey told me. My fur kids love them and I have not had any health problems with them. They are more pricey, but who cares for the safety of our pets. Good luck.

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).

Hello, according to the package they are MADE IN THE USA. I am not a China product person as there has been way too many bad items put into our pets foods. I highly recommend these treats as they are the perfect size for my pugs.

Glad you asked. I had several conversations with Smokehouse's Customer Service rep. concerning this. In short, this item IS made in China as many of their products. In the past the product label has always stated 'Tested in The US"; however this did NOT. I was assured that ALL of their Chinese made products ARE indeed tested either in the US or Canada. I never actually got a satisfactory answer as to why the additional label (tested in the US) was absent from these last items. I have noticed NO ill effects in our 19lb Kerrin Terrier mix.

The ones in the big plastic tub are from China, and the ones without a red white and blue sticker on the front of the bag are also from China. ONLY the ones with the red white blue sticker that says Made in the USA are made here. Very misleading that the same company and product are made in 2 places.

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.

I believe the ones I got did say China on them. They seem to hold up well I only had one that the noise pipe came off the inside but I got it back on, both my dogs just love these, and sorry to say, the adults play with them too because of the great noise they make LOL! hope that helps.

No, they are made in china. I check the info on the Cardinal Labs. They do not have made in the USA anywhere on the package. If you search dog training treats made in the USA, the real ones come up. I ordered the brands that popped up on the search and they smell fresher and are made from real meat.

The information I found on the back of these treats state USA, not china. My poodles love these treats and I've searched everywhere to get the ones that are not from China. These are wonderful.

I only know of the ones that come from China.. Also i noticed at the stores, it if very hard to get Chicken Jerky treats made in America.. and the ones that do seem to be all out. My pups love these, and I trust them.

Yes they are made in China. I believe they use irradiation. The process of treating food with a specific dosage of ionizing radiation. This treatment slows or halts spoilage by retarding enzymic action or destroying microorganisms and it can also inactivate foodborne pathogenic organisms reducing the risk of food borne illness. Either with my dogs or cats I have never had any issue with chicken or duck jerky treats. That is not to say that some animals, like humans, can have a reaction to something in the product. I have never had an animal react to a rabies vacine either but my next door neighbor's car developed a cancerous tumor at the site of a rabies shot. But, I ramble. Yes they are made in China.

I don't know where they are made but there is no aftertaste as far as I can tell.

They used to be made in USA, or at least that is what my package said. Now they are made in China and packaged in USA. I don't give anything to my dog that is made in China.

No they are not. I believe they are made in china. I don't have it right here before me at the moment.

The bag says China, but these aren't like the quality of the jerky and other things that have been recalled lately. They seem much more process, not strips of dried meat. My dogs absolutely love these!

Alas, like just about everything else, they're made in China. Wish they weren't but...

From what I read on the back of the package, and I have ordered several bags of these duck treats, they only state information related to the US. They do NOT state they are made in China. I would not take a chance with them if they were made in China. I love my dogs like family members and would only give them food that is good for them. All my babies love the duck jerky treats. I hope this helps you Ms. Stother. Sincerely, Pat Cooley

Yes these are made in China. I don't know about preservatives, but our Yorkies, which have very finicky stomachs, have never been sick eating these. We just give one to each at night, either the duck or chicken jerky or the sweet potato wrapped with chicken or duck. Our dogs love these treats.

It appears they are made in China. But then, what isn't nowadays at least in part?

It says made in China on the bottle but I won't be buying them again even though my dogs love them.
