I have cross posted this from another forum as I thought it important.

Hi Everyone.
A product called EXER-HIDE DOG CHEWS is being sold in stores in the UK. They are manufactured in Brazil and Mexico. They are causing VERY SERIOUS ILLNESS IN DOGS AND MAJOR SEIZURES AND MANY DEATHS.
Please take care and do not buy them.
Please be careful. For further infomation look up Exer-Hide dog chews on the internet

There are many warnings about these on the net,Facebook etc. Personally I don't allow my dogs ANY type of rawhide chews. I would be concerned about the chemicals used to 'cure' them and choking issues.

> Personally I don't allow my dogs ANY type of rawhide chews

Me too.

I'm not sure if this is legit pat even though it is on a few dog forums, it's also being shown to be a spam hoax? :-)

>> Personally I don't allow my dogs ANY type of rawhide chews

Totally agree. In over 35 years of owning dogs, none of them have had any type of rawhide chews and never will.

I'm not sure but think this may be another hoax doing the rounds. Having said that I never allow my lot rawhide chews as I don't believe they are safe. I don't let them have calves hooves either.
