are these made in China, and are preservatives added?

Yes they are made in China. I believe they use irradiation. The process of treating food with a specific dosage of ionizing radiation. This treatment slows or halts spoilage by retarding enzymic action or destroying microorganisms and it can also inactivate foodborne pathogenic organisms reducing the risk of food borne illness. Either with my dogs or cats I have never had any issue with chicken or duck jerky treats. That is not to say that some animals, like humans, can have a reaction to something in the product. I have never had an animal react to a rabies vacine either but my next door neighbor's car developed a cancerous tumor at the site of a rabies shot. But, I ramble.

There were no preservatives and sorry I can't remember if they were made in China. My dog enjoyed them.

Yes these are made in China. I don't know about preservatives, but our Yorkies, which have very finicky stomachs, have never been sick eating these. We just give one to each at night, either the duck or chicken jerky or the sweet potato wrapped with chicken or duck. Our dogs love these treats.

I am not sure of there origin, I was so happy to find them as our vet said only duck or vension treats as our dog has allergies

After further research I found they were made in China. Go to the Kingdom Pets website and they will tell you about their testing process. I would not have bought them if I knew they were made in China, but after reading their website I decided to let my dogs have them. They loved the treats, and had no ill effects from them, but I will not purchase again, as treats from China killed my last 2 dogs.

These are made in China. It clearly states this on the box. They are still great. I bought 3 sets for a total of 6. Very impressed!

They used to be made in USA, or at least that is what my package said. Now they are made in China and packaged in USA. I don't give anything to my dog that is made in China.

I hardly doubt if they are. If they were it would be printed in large print on their packages. I don't know how large China is but it must be huge as everything I see in made there. No regulations on any thing they make. What about our medicines we take. I found out a lot of them are made there also. Just look at what happened in the compounding medicine shop up north, killing people right here in the USA!!! Not regulated by FDA standarads or any.

They are made in China, now. The original ones have a RED mark on the bottom. At leastthat has been my experience.

I purchased these a while ago. I'm thinking China - not 100% sure. Notin the USA - I remember I was surprised by that.

They are not labeled - maybe the original package was. I'm sure they were made in Taiwan or China. They are a great product. If you limit yourself to USA made items, you are really limiting what you can buy. I try to buy USA, but it's often impossible.

Hello, according to the package they are MADE IN THE USA. I am not a China product person as there has been way too many bad items put into our pets foods. I highly recommend these treats as they are the perfect size for my pugs.

No, Mine were not labeled "Made in USA", buyer be aware. Though, they were also not labeled made in china/PRC. Who knows where these are currently made.

The products itself do not give any description of where they were made, sorry... Updated: Even though the products itself does not say whether or not they were made in China, I was able to find the packaging and Yes they were made in China.

Wish I could remember. And I know what you mean. But even if made in China, they seemed to be fine for my dogs. They loved them and didn't get sick at all. Sorry I wish I could help you with that. But I will get more when the price comes back down. Cheers!

to tell you the truth....I do not know, but I do not think so if I remember correctly, mind you it was a while ago that I looked at the packaging that they did not come from china but in from one of the states.........I hope this helps you out

They are made in China. It says on packaging it is environmentally friendly but that could be because it reduces on waste rather than the materials they use.

Leah they are made in the USA. I won't buy my dog treats not made in the USA. Just too risky these days.

these are made in China. I do use them. I smell every piece before I give it (should not smell musty or sweet). And I never give them if I am not supervising. The vegetable glycerin is what hurts the dogs sometimes. They don't coat the pieces evenly. But my dogs need meat treats in the morning and these have worked for years.

I've never looked at the box to see where they're made. No where on the company web site [that I could find] says where they're made. I worry about the Chinese [chicken] products. All I know is that my dogs have never had any problems digesting greenies. Sorry I couldn't directly answer your question.
