Is this product made in the USA? I looked on the Virbac website but could not find any information about where the VeggieDent Chews are made.

I had the same question and found that they are made in Vietnam with ingredients originating in Vietnam. I did some research and found that they were recalled in Australia only back in 2009 because of a potential link to kidney issues with dogs. But there were no reported problems in the USA. A shame companies can't just make items here; as a responsible pet parent I would be willing to pay a bit more to have items made here and with ingredients sourced only from here.

What color are they? I can't tell with this picture. The green ones really make a mess. Is there any color that gets on your dog when they chew it?

The VeggieDent Chews are made in Vietnam. C.E.T. is a well respected company and I thought they were made and distributed in the USA, so I was surprised when I received them and found that they are made elsewhere. However, my dog LOVES the chews, he is almost 15 and they have indeed helped reduce his plaque and improve his breath. I've not noticed any change in bowel or eating habits, no increase or decrease in water intake, etc. or any difference in behavior so I will continue to give them to him. Hope this helps answer your question!

Yes. They are made in Ft Worth, TX. My dog loves them and they really keep his teeth clean. Highly recommend.

I don't know where it is made. But my dogs adore these chews and they really do help with bad dog breath. I have bought 5 bags over the last year. Great item.

It states on the package that this product is made in the USA...whiih is the reason I buy this brand. However, please take note that the ones from this website are extremely small and obviously rejects from pet stores. It was a big disappointment and a waste of money. But the product itself is great and loved by my dogs. I will only buy them from the store where I can see them first. Hope this helps a pet owner!

The packaging says Made in USA, Constructive Eating Inc, 1733 Foxdale Lane, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108; (734) 418-3241; www.constructiveeating.com. A good question - difficult to trust Chinese plastics, particularly with children, but these seem very good and made in the USA - you could follow up further with the contact details I just typed. I hope this helps.

Yup. Says right on the container "Made in USA." My dogs are hearty eaters, have good digestion, and are healthy. I like this stuff. And so do they. my only problem is that the container is rather large in diameter, and I have small hands. Getting it open is a bit of a trick. Hope this was helpful.

Not from China. Proudly made in the USA. Expiration date on my bag says 4/01/16 so they are "good" for another year and a half. And now that I have moved the bag to read it, the dogs are whining for treats, so hard or not, they must really be "yummy."

I never checked..my greyhound likes them..I break the biscuts into 1/3sI decided to check the box...made in USA!!

I can't find anything on the box that tells where the product is made. Unfortunately, even IF a product is made in US there is no way to be sure that some of the ingredients have not been imported. I recently discovered this website which reviews pet products and will email you product recall notices. If you love your dog as much as I love mine (and I'm sure you do) it pays to be informed. Sometimes I think the only safe dog food is what you make at home. But even then, who knows what the meat you purchase contains. Blerg!! http://www.dogfoodadvisor.com/

This is a statement on the bag: "Manufactured and guaranteed by Nestle Purina PetCare Company, St. Louis, MO 63164, USA" ... hope that helps! :-) I also started using the snackers because my personal (and very trusted for about 6 years) Vet recommended them for my poodle who has a very sensitive tummy.

Do you own any pets? Ever bought any dog rawhides, toys, etc...from China? Well these bags are also manufactured in China. Just because it says BPA-free, doesn't mean it is. Again, I remind everyone of the melamine-tainted dog food, the continual recall of dog treats made in China. China does not have a great track record for safe food. But go ahead, support China. I prefer to know where things are made if I am going to ingest them, or food that is cooked in them.

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).

This product is made in Vietnam, manufactured and distributed in Fort Worth, Texas. I was surprised myself to learn this, as they are also sold at my vet's office. I am glad you asked this question. Now, I will stop buying them as I thought they were made in the USA.

hi Lynn, as far as I know, I think that they are made in USA. I searched for a long time and researched alot of different brands. my dog loves them and hasn't gotten sick. I switched to Oliver and Iris, a company in the US, family owned. You have to buy their chicken a few bags at a time because they run out quickly and you have to wait until more is made, but definitely US made. Hope this helps. Supposedly, Henneford Farms brand out of CA is now stocking the stores at BJs if you have one or can check that one out too.

I'm unsure where these products are sourced from but the description says they are approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. You can probably find out more info by visiting the Greenies website.

Yes, it's made in China. I have now taken my dogs off all of these treats. Not because they had any bad effects but because of all of the warnings. I now buy "Smoke House" because they're made in the USA. They only have the chips and I look for only the ones with the label on here that state Made in the USA. For example the "Smoke House" Prime Chicken & Beef (Turkey) chips are made in the USA but the Duck chips don't state it, so I won't buy it. The dogs love them. Contrary to other reviewers I have 2 small dogs and the size of the chips seem fine for my 11 lb and 15 lb dogs. I could see where a smaller dog say under 6 lbs might have a hard time chewing the chips. Yes, it's made in China. I have now taken my dogs off all of these treats.

That is actually two different questions. They are made in the US as shown on the bottom of the package but the real question is where do they source their ingredients which is not disclosed. Natural Pawz will not carry any Blue Buffalo products because of this issue. That said my dogs love them.
