Pup-Peroni treats...
For a long time we have given our dogs as a treat Pup-Peronis.
I was sure they were not processed in China.
Lately on Facebook there has been a poster circulating that list all the treats that are made in China and to not buy them. Many I recognized as treats that had been recalled in the past or were repeat offenders.
So I went on the web site for Del Monte pet products and I contacted customer service with my question. Do they or do they not make Pup-Peronis in China...simple question.
Below is the response I got this morning.

Dear Sharon
Thank you for your email about Pup-Peroni dog treats. We're glad you took the time to contact us and we appreciate the opportunity to respond.
Pup-Peroni treats are made right here in the USA with domestically sourced beef or chicken.
It may be helpful to know that Federal Regulations require a product to list the country of origin if it has been produced outside of the US or one of it's territories. So if one of our products does not specifically state the country of origin, then you can assume it was produced in the US or a US territory.
Our pets are members of our family too, and keeping them safe and healthy is our top priority. Thanks again for contacting us and giving us a chance to respond.

I feel better having received this, I don't know how many of you gives these as treats but these are the only ones that we buy except for the occasional box of Milk Bones.
If you have given up these treats because you thought maybe they came from China maybe this will make you feel better too.
I just wanted to pass this along, I don't have any stake in this company or own any stock this is for information only.
