The Cadet Duck Breast Treats that I started buying from Costco did not have China listed anywhere on the package and I looked. Now it does from Amazon and our Costco isn't selling them. Does anyone know of a replacement product?

They are from China. Costco discontinued them after receiving a LOT of pressure from "pet interest groups" and then brought them back one more time, but I've noticed they are gone again! There is a strong lobby regarding this and I suspect it's partially political. Pet products are a billion+ industry and veterinarians and large pet food suppliers are not wanting "foreign interests" cornering their market, where they can charge prices that guarantee HUGE profits! My 3 dogs have been enjoying these chews for years and they are 14, 13 and 5 years old. HOWEVER, they are used as a treat with no more than 2 chews a day...NEVER as a meal. They shouldn't be used as a meal! Recently I bought some chicken chews and printed right on the package instructions it stated, "No more than 25 chews a day" Really, I thought! That's just crazy that you'd have to tell a pet owner THAT! No wonder they "MIGHT" end up with cancer! Also, be wary of the chews that say "Distributed in the USA" That doesn't really say where they are coming from, does it? Hope this helps?

My dogs had loved these, and thankfully never had any issues with them! However, because the are made in CHINA, I will no longer buy them. I really WISH MORE pet foods were manufactured her in the US and inspected for safety at human standards! Now, I buy Chicken and cook it for them myself...better safe and sorry!!

These are made in China but my dog has been crazy to eat chicken jerky since he was a puppy. So we still give these treats to him. He used to eat the one brand which had rumor of causing death long time. But luckily my dog is OK.

I'm not sure. I seem to remember seeing this item at Costco but I haven't looked specifically.

I bought the pump version, poultry flavor, and it's made in Forth Worth, Texas. They also export it to Canada from Texas. My Golden Retriever loves it, haunts my bathroom until he gets his teeth brushed in the morning and before he goes to sleep at night. Our mini long haired Dachshund also lurks until she gets her teeth brushed and it temporarily takes away her bad breath. It's REALLY expensive at Petsmart and Petco.

Not per the Kirkland Signature pet care hotline, 1-888-987-4110. They certainly are pushing it via mailings but I note that it isn't offered on costco.com. Are they avoiding the bad reviews by not providing a Costco venue for comment? The representative said they had addressed the vehicle (oil) issues by changing the amount. Or some such. It's been 4 months since I called. If you call let us know what they told you. I was told in the store by a manager and in the pharmacy by a pharmacist in charge that they had changed the formulation, "so I've heard".

I don't know! All I know is the product that I bought says "Product of China" right on the label. And after hearing such terrible stories, and having my dog get sick, I threw them in the trash! I've started making my own dog treats just to be on the safe side..

Hi Joyce, I only purchase food and snacks for my wonderful Chihuahua, Jed, if it is made in the USA. Thankfully, Purina does NOT get any product they sell from China or anywhere else. I hope this helps. Unfortunately, my picky little Jed did not like these as he prefers Chicken Jerky, lol. But that has nothing to do with Purina's quality.

As far as I know all the ingredients are from the USA. It is definitely Made in America. I don't feed my pets anything made in China. The only thing my pets get from outside the US are Brazilian Rawhide and some treats made in Canada.I think your pet will enjoy this canned duck, mine did.

recalls include various duck and chicken treats, however, since FDA does not know WHAT causes the illness that kills so many animals, there is only a general "recall". I'm feeding the Cadet Duck treats to my MinPins right now and know that the pack I have is safe since none are sick. Cadet Duck Treats are (unfortunately) made in China but my dogs love them.

It's made in China but the treats don't look like they could contain anything bad since it's NOT real chicken. Furthermore, Starmark claims the plastic doesn't contain three types of toxic materials, so hopefully it'll be OK. I did notice, however, the plastic smelled funky.

When i browsed amazon.com for dental dog treats for my puppy, I feel like I was mislead by this product, C.E.T. Enzymatic Oral Hygiene Chews for Petite Dogs, because the ingredients were listed in French which was misleading because the product bag says Made in Mexico. I feel the same way about where I buy my dog foods. I want the ingredients to be made in the USA and distributed here. I do not want my dog to get sick from cheap toxic ingredients from China or the likes. I love my dog and do not want products that can cause his death or make him sick. I would like to see all products listed on Amazon.com to have the country of origin posted so consumers can easily see where it is from. I do not want to have to guess or search for a long time for this critical information. We have learned what poisonous dog food ingredients from China does to our pets here. Thank you.

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.

No the package says it is made in China, however I have found this brand to be safe for dogs. I gave been buying Cadet brand sweet potato and duck jerky for several years with no ill effects on my pets.

The product that was available at Costco warehouses is by Big Train and is labeled "Chamba Chai, Spiced Chai Latte Drink Mix" and is probably the same. The problem is not all Costco warehouses carry this product. The last time we saw Chamba Chai available we bought six 4 pound cartons. Since then it has not been available. So hello Amazon.com! Hope this helps:-)

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.
