When I saw this thing about China, I stopped buying the chicken strips back when Baby was around.
Prsently they get two stuffs (Jumbone and Hill's Hypo-Allergenic Biscuits) that's made by our neighbors in Canada, Ehy!

PS All I'm wait'in on is to see if this ALL PROTEIN diet works on Harlee!
PPS I wish I could get Harlee n' Calvin to eat vegetable treats! Cause they share one (x2) pack of medium size Jumbone at $3.50 once a day. And the bag of Hill's Hypo-Allergenic treats is $7.50 a bag!
After which you gotta figure in that they eat (x1) large tray of boneless/skinless chicken breast per week (usually the $15.00 - $16.00 dollar size. Which by the way is brough in from China. But I do boild the heck out of'um before I freeze it).
And now they're on different types of Royal Canin caned Dog Food!
Then to top it off, the two ask if I could make them "Eggs Benedict with a side of dollar size pancakes with beef or chicken gravy" on Sundays for a little variety!
I'm beginning to think that some'tuns definately work here! .... I mean "wrong" here!

Those jumbones are HUGE....... that's a lot of extra calories per day, and a LOT of chicken per week, on top of kibble.

Harlee could lose a few punds, but both their weights a pretty much stable with their present intake. How do I know about their weight? Well we've been to the vet's quite a lot since July! ... LOL
Calvin however, works it off since we walk a good 5 plus miles a night since arriving to this new property. Been good for me as well!
Since Harlee had her pancreas problem, Jumbone was the only treat I could find with a low fat content (crude fat 1%). It's unreal the fat content in these treats! And again, both dogs will NOT eat veggies! No Way No How! Wish they did though, would save me a ton of cash!

I can get your dogs eating green beans. It's the enhanced green bean diet. You go to the store and get a smoked ham hock and a five pound bag of frozen green beans. Put it in the slow cooker and add as many green beans as will fit (could use a big pot also) then some water. Set to cook on high for 6 hours and go to bed. (Um, on low and cook while you're awake if you use a regular pot.) In the morning, voila! Ham flavored but almost fat free. You might want to add some salt when you eat yours, but not for the dogs.
Good and good for ya!
Good and good for you!

Two of mine eat their green beans every evening with a bit of kibble and a splash low salt chicken broth, sometimes the broth is homemade sometimes it's store bought. Mugsy & Tootsie eat them right up... Petey on the other hand will eat the kibble but pick out each green bean and carefully place them on the floor. The two younger ones love carrots as treats, Petey spits them out.
Some dogs just don't like veggies I guess.

Okay I had to log on and comment; We have been giving Carrots for treats and for one of the dogs feedings, (they get three feedings a-day) for about month now. In fact I just went out and bought Ten pds of them this morning.
Anyways the good part is Our, 10-year-old) Cocker. just went to the vet yesterday and TADAAA she lost 4pds in the last month.
So carrots work and my doggies love them too.

Sounds like good progress Chris.
Mugsy has lost 5 pounds and Tootsie has lost 2.5 pounds since I started supplementing their evening meal with about 1/3 green beans. I also give carrots as treats to them a few times day. Our vet says they are "at a perfect weight", I'm happy with that. Now if I could lose the same percentage of weight it would wonderful.

In addition to carrots as snacks, we give our furbabies pieces of sweet potato. They love it. Very simple to microwave!
