Dead: Over 1,140 dogs, at least 1 cat
Sickened: over 6,200 dogs, 26 cats, 3 people

2013
Residue of illegal antibiotics found in several brands of treats, only a couple of companies initiate formal voluntary recalls, rest "withdraw" products.

Look the package over carefully, "Made In China" is typically in tiny print in a hard to see spot on the package. It may be covered by a price tag too.
Just because a product is still on the shelf does NOT mean it is safe!
