Milk-Bone MaroSnacks Dog Treats with Real Bone Marrow and Calcium
[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I saw something that reminded me of dog marrow bones and fell for it hook, line, and sinker. These are NOT nutritious, nor should they be fed to any dog. Here\'s why . . .\n\nMy Jack Russell loved this, and for 5 years, we ignorantly fed these to her -- two or three a day -- thinking that they were harmless, and she certainly loved them. Then, one day, during a vet visit, we discovered her teeth were rotting. We couldn\'t determine what it could be because we tried desperately to keep her away from people food and THOUGHT we were doing right by her with her dog food -- and these "nutritious snacks". She had 12 teeth extracted that day. We didn\'t know then what we know now. Soon after, when we got our German Shepherd puppy, we were told to be very careful what we fed him, so we started reading labels, something that didn\'t register as important prior. Guess what we found on THIS label: THE THIRD INGREDIENT IS SUGAR. Nutritionists have long stated that the first 3-5 ingredients in a product are it\'s primary ingredients. SUGAR!!! I\'d never buy products for myself where sugar was in the top five ingredients, so why in the name of all that\'s holy would I purchase it for my dog. In addition, two of the ingredients are colorants. My poor Jack Russell lost 12 teeth, and I now suspect this is why. If I could prove it was this product, I\'d sue this company for her $1,000 dental bill.\n\nIf you love your dogs, and they are a part of your family, DON\'T feed these to them. Not if you care. We read labels to take care of our own health, so why would we feed our dogs just anything. I\'ve switched to Blue Wilderness. The ingredients in that are: Salmon,Chicken Meal,Potatoes,Chicken Fat (preserved with Mixed Tocopherols),Flaxseed (source of Omega 3 and 6 Fatty Acids),Calcium Ascorbate (source of Vitamin C),Vitamin E Supplement,Salt,Calcium Carbonate.\n\nLOOK at the picture to see the ingredients in these Milk-Bone MaroSnacks. If the picture isn\'t clear, look at the back of your container. If you don\'t cringe, you\'re a stronger person than I am.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'The last order I received was in the May and I just notice a lot of tiny dead worms and black bugs. Some black bugs are dead but there are still a lot that are alive. Not sure if anyone else had this problem. I have a been getting these on regular basis and just notice this batch with bugs.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I don’t know if I can fairly rate the flavor of this since I haven’t actually tried the treats...but my dogs love it and I’m going to say that they think the flavor is great! I have a small Pomeranian with dental issues/several missing teeth and this is his favorite treat. It doesn’t seem to be too hard for him to break up and chew and he prefers these over something softer. Both of my boys give this “Two paws up”.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'My dogs love these Milkbone treats, all of them developed fatty lumps all over their bodies that never go away. Its the only treat they ever get and the only item that is consistent in their diet. It took me years to come to this conclusion, whatever Milkbone is doing looks clean on the outside but I think their products need to be taken a closer look at. My dogs get no treats anymore, I only feed them natural food in which I know what each ingredient is because I put it there myself. These big companies are not trustworthy, I used to think so but not anymore.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2016', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Having these delivered to my home is much cheaper than going out and getting them. My lil\' Chihuahua Minnie won\'t eat any other "cookie". Milkbone products are the best! I have been using Milkbone products since the 1970\'s. (Photo is of my pup "Doodles", he is being raised on Milkbone too!)'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2016', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "My dog, a boston terrier, loves this treat. They are small enough that I can give her a couple, so I like to use them when training for tricks to reward her for doing something particularly hard. They are more exciting than training treats but can still be eaten quickly. This is a huge bin, a great price, and the container is air tight. There are a lot of little bugs where I live that like to infiltrate my dog food, so I actually keep the container every time I empty one and use it to store dog food, treats, etc. The wide mouth to the jar means it's very easy to get in and out of."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "We have 6 rescue dogs and they LOVE these treats. I got a great deal on these in May 2019 at $16 for two 40 oz jars but now they have gone up to twice that for ONE jar. They are less expensive at Chewy at this time. I don't know if they are good for them or not but I feel like if I stop giving them Marrow Bone Snacks I'll have to give up ice cream which is not good for me so i always try to keep these in the house. (And ice cream too)."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "We are trying to teach out dog to lay down. I thought that these would be good treats to reward him with when he does a good job. They came fast, were sealed and had a lot in there. I was excited to start giving these to him. He loved them. However, we soon found they were making him sick, they gave him diarrhea, made him puke and something in them made his coat become really greasy and stinky. Even after a bath he stunk and not like a dirty dog, it was a putrid stench that we couldn't get rid of, he also became itchy and broke out in hives. It only took about 4 days of treats for all these issue to happen. They went away in a few days once we stopped giving them to him. These treats are a no go for my dog."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'These treats are the best yet. My dog loves them. I bought these after seeing my cousin’s dog chow down on them years ago. I ordered them yesterday and got them today. And my dog LOVES them! 😀 She sniffed it as if unsure then picked it up and tested it out in her mouth. She seemed like she couldn’t tell whether she wanted to eat it or not. But then she bit it...and it was on! She wolfed it down. The middle part is definitely her favorite. I’m so glad she likes it. I’m one satisfied customer. 👍'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Having a large gang of dogs means that I buy a LOT of treats! My gang has some favorites and these are right up there! They are very small and I like that! They are small enough even for a chihuahua. If you have a dog with some dental issues, look no further! Even puny humans can crack or crush these easily.\n\nThey arrived in the container with a freshness seal on the lid. We've been dishing them out for about a month now and they are still fresh. My gang gobbles them like M&M's. They love the exterior but go really crazy for the interior.\n\nI highly recommend as a training treat or even for a regular daily snack. How many you give depends on the size of the dog and your wallet."}]
