Warning on Sweet Potato Treats!

[LaylaLop]

I just wanted to warn everyone out there about the commercially produced sweet potato treats. It seems those from China have been causing renal (kidney) failure in dogs due to toxins in the treats. The same thing has happened lately with chicken jerky treats from China, but bunnies don't eat chicken jerky so it's not as much concern. I've seen a few people mention they have fed sweet potato treats to their bunnies and just wanted to give people a head's up!

Here's an article on it for more info: http://poisonedpets.com/2012/04/06/alert-vets-warn-about-new-treats-from-china-poisoning-dogs/

I've become rather picky about the treats I give anyway.

This problem can easily be solved by buying your own food dehydrator. :coolness: You know what's in it and where it came from that way.
