Newman's Own&reg; Organics Dog Treats for Medium Size Dogs: What happened to all these treats?
667763
I order a box a month from amazon - now they're gone. I don't know what's going on either.

I'm not sure if this is what happened to you too, but there is a 6 ct box of regular (not organic) cheddar bunnies that have the organic package pictured on Amazon even though they are not totally organic. I've told Amazon about it twice now (after getting 8 boxes free when I asked for a return), but they haven't changed the image yet.

think!dog changed from the cut rectangles to the molded "paw" to conform with the shape they were using for their other treats. I believe they changed the formula because of manufacturing process issues. I have no idea what justification they had for calling either the old or new formulation "jerky". The old formulation was nothing like a biscuit or cookie. It seemed more like a hard "fruit leather." The change may be why Costco and Sam's Club no longer stock it. Or maybe think!dog made the change and then made a deal with Costco and Sam's Club to clear out the old inventory. Pure speculation. think!dog changed from the cut rectangles to the molded "paw" to conform with the shape they were using for their other treats.

They are from China. Costco discontinued them after receiving a LOT of pressure from "pet interest groups" and then brought them back one more time, but I've noticed they are gone again! There is a strong lobby regarding this and I suspect it's partially political. Pet products are a billion+ industry and veterinarians and large pet food suppliers are not wanting "foreign interests" cornering their market, where they can charge prices that guarantee HUGE profits! My 3 dogs have been enjoying these chews for years and they are 14, 13 and 5 years old. HOWEVER, they are used as a treat with no more than 2 chews a day...NEVER as a meal. They shouldn't be used as a meal! Recently I bought some chicken chews and printed right on the package instructions it stated, "No more than 25 chews a day" Really, I thought! That's just crazy that you'd have to tell a pet owner THAT! No wonder they "MIGHT" end up with cancer! Also, be wary of the chews that say "Distributed in the USA" That doesn't really say where they are coming from, does it? Hope this helps?

It is Pate. All of newman's are pate. I have tried about 5 or 6 different Newman's organics and organic dog food. All pate. To make something hold the form of shreds or pieces, you would have to add some junk, some useless chemical non-food junk.

Yes, I did notice that the chews were much smaller in size. For a medium size dog, it should be bigger ... And the price has shot up.

Wish I could help you with that. Sounds like a question for someone at Ideal Pet Products.

They are dog biscuits so hard. You can get it in spray bottle. Neither helped for my pup though. Good luck!

Here's an apparent statement by Newman's Own Organics:"Newman's Own Organics pet foods are NOT part of the mass recall by Menu Foods or the extended recall. We DO NOT use wheat gluten or rice protein concentrate in any of our pet products. All our pet foods are made in the US and certified organic by Oregon Tilth, a USDA accredited certifying agency."http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address;=389x774322

I don't know. In fact, I quit buying this from Amazon because the bag was too heavy for any of their boxes which always arrived open/shredded/generally destroyed. I'm now buying Rachel Ray Just Six and Newman's organic senior dog supplemented by the BIG bags of salmon & pea at Sam's.

Try Petco. I'm down to one left and thought you had them. I'll check and let you know.

Unfortunately this can be the case with some treats. I too have had the experience of being disappointed when opening a new bag of treats. However I don't think I had that problem with the Whole Life treats.

I went directly to the Newman's own website. I am happy to report; this food is manufactured in America. Some of the dog treats are made in Canada. Any other outsourced ingredients are from New Zealand. They also said NONE of the ingredients or manufacturing is from China. Rock on Newmans own! My dog loves it.

The design of the packaging has been changing. Maybe they are tired of paying the dog models. I would still like to know what HC stands for but it looks like it will eventually leave the design all together. I don't believe that the ingredients have changed. I have one dog that would like paint off the floor if it was wet, but the other dog is more choosy so I'm pretty sure it's the same formula.

I'm also looking for dog treats made in the U.S. Have you found any yet? I'd like to ship them as a Christmas gift.
