rawhide exer-hide chips

(Cottonwood, AZ)

I have three dogs, had four, now three, and they all chew on the flat chips, 2lb. bag, product number 68113143910 or 3909.

My dogs eat them every day; they can eat five a night without a blink. One is 130lbs one is 70lbs and there is one that is 10lbs but he can steal a chip faster than the big ones can see him coming!

My dogs are very healthy, but I do wonder what chips do to them. They have fatty deposits on their abdomens and now a few spots on the rib cage area. I have not had the ones on the ribcage checked yet and I hope they are just fatty deposits too.

Has anyone else noticed lumps on their dogs who eat rawhide dog chews? My dogs love these chips and I don't think they could live without them really. But I do hope they are safe.

They eat a lot of them, all my dogs in the past have also eaten them and loved them. For me there is no better treat for my dogs.

NOW, Wal-Mart in my town anyway, has decided to delete this item from their store and I am worried!!! I called 1-800-walmart and made an inquiry about it and they are checking into it and will call me back but I hope I can get them back into the store.

If anyone wants to help please call WalMart and ask them to keep the product number above in Cottonwood AZ, I don't know but it is probably ALL the stores because that is how they order I think for all or none.

Thanks for your help!
