Hi, now that the government is allowing China to send chicken to USA, my concern is the chicken you use? are they actually sourced from USA &amp; natural?

I've read on the packaging that this product is 100% sourced and produced in the USA. Before I knew about the problems with Chinese chicken and how ill dogs were getting here in the US, I learned the hard way. My Beagle became extremely ill, began bleeding from the GI tract and had to be put on a course of antibiotics. It took her a long time to heal from this terrible food. Then I began reading about how ill so many other dogs were getting and some even died. However, thankfully, there are alternatives and I am happy to say that my dogs have never for an instant become ill eating these treats. I hope this helps. However, if you are still in a bit of doubt, I would think the manufacturer would not mind a phone call asking for a confirmation of the safety of their product.

Yes you can! After several experiences with "recalled" chicken jerky from China, I decided to make my own. That was the main purpose of this purchase. My dogs love, love, love the homemade!

I've never looked at the box to see where they're made. No where on the company web site [that I could find] says where they're made. I worry about the Chinese [chicken] products. All I know is that my dogs have never had any problems digesting greenies. Sorry I couldn't directly answer your question.

They are made in China and checked in the USA. I would never buy chicken products from China but I have purchased the duck and rice balls for years. It is the only treat my rat terrier will eat and she loves them.

It's been so long since I've purchased this product, however, the pkg should read produced and manufactured in the USA. The chickens could be from here, (USA) but manufactured in China or visa-versa.

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!!

The packet says that Pet Center is an American owned company and operates U S managed facilities. No. for Pet Center, INC is 1-800-390-0575. At the very bottom of the packet, it does say made in China. Eek I hope I haven't been giving my 16 yr. old cocker something harmful. She loves them but only eats the chicken, does not eat the rawhide?

I've done quite a bit of research on the best chow for dubias and everywhere I look I read the same thing: Do not buy chicken feed that is medicated. Did you end up mixing it into your super worm bedding? How did that work out?

Great question. It is identified as Pacific Northwest Salmon, and per their website it is a combination of both wild and farm raised Salmon from around the Seatle as well as British Columbia areas, so some of the sourcing would be Canadian waters, not all US. None of the primary ingredients is from China at least, although in almost any pet food or treat it is likely that vitamin supplementation did come from China as the vast majority is produced there, even on treats or food considered US ingredients.

It's my understanding that Chicken of the Sea bought Genova, so I can no longer recommend it. It's still good quality, but not what it was before. I don't know what the diff is about. Sorry.

I also take Chlorella and was considering it for my dog. However, since my brand, and this one, is made in Japan, I am now very leery of using any products from Japan. We all know about the radiation fall out and the fact that they have not yet seemed to have truly contained such. Never mind that people think it is contained to the ocean- we are talking hundreds/thousands of tons dumped non-stop....and there is always a trickle down effect to an event like this. While the Ocean( sea life & sea food) is one problem to be concerned over, various areas in Japan are contaminated from what tragically happened and will remain so, past our lifetime. China puts out products( for our companies who stupidly outsource to them)of inferior quality because they disregard the company standards they are given. I am sad to say to say that with Japan I have a choice;but with hardly anything made in American anymore- with China- we don't have much choice in our buying decisions on way too many things.

In this world that we live in anything is possible. We all know that hotdogs are terrible but we eat them and don't question it. Same goes with Chinese food...lol my childhood friend that in the business said that here in USA quality and honesty is far better than stuff made overseas. QC is strict by food and drug administration and sterile environment is mandatory. Hope that helps

I had no idea this was an issue with some brand of dried mushrooms. I would not know how you could find out specifically about this brand. The label and insructions on the package were all in Chinese, if memory serves, so that would not be of help unless you are fluent in Chinese. With foodstuffs coming from countries other than the United States, my attitude is one of Caveat emptor --buyer beware. And if I choose to consume them, I do so knowing there is a risk.

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 called Now Foods @ 888-669-3663 and they said that peas are sourced from China :(
