Thanks for listening to the consumers and seeing an opportunity. BTW, I'm considering the artichoke and eggplant and/or strawberry for my babes (aggressive chewers, medium-sized dogs). I know they're made in Maine (great), but from what country do the plastic/rubber recycled materials come? Also, where does the mint scent come from? (I'd actually prefer unscented for my dogs.) Could you please ask someone to give a little more detail (country of origin for raw materials) in the descriptions of each product? Thanks. Kudos to Planet Dog!!!!! (Arf! Arf! Ba-roooooooo! from my shelter pups.) Hopefully, other companies that want to come along with us will finally realize that when we "hysterical," "off-the-chart" pet people mean "No China," we mean "No China!" Perhaps we haven't written enough about how the pet food poisonings have changed our entire ways of eating, shopping, living, etc.? If some don't get it and just want wide profit margins from using cheap, inferior, toxic materials and deplorable labor practices, tough luck for them. They're not getting a cent from me.

the problem with our economy vis a vis china is we don’t make anything anymore thus there aren’t that many american manufacturing workers - not like there used to be.we have to start making things again or we’ll be pussified continually by china and her crappy dangerous deadly products.

Nice to see that the public has input on something. Remember when we talked about the American worker instead of the American consumer? Yes, kudos to planet dog.

This is only the first of what I hope will be many more to pull their production out of China. After all the negative publicity & damage that China has done to this country with their tainted goods, it would make a difference if it appeared that they are making an honest effort to change things & clean up their act. It seems that, if anything, they are getting worse. If only these morons would stop apologizing to China & demand either they clean up their act or we're outta there, things might change. Instead, they grovel before them like we are wrong & they are right. What the hell do you expect them to do when we aren't even asking them to clean things up......oh pullllllleeeeeezzzzzz. Now if only they would stop any kind of food (or drugs) from coming into this country, that would make me feel safe & secure. I know it won't happen but maybe if enough companies pull production out of there & they refuse to allow their goods into this country, they'll see the light. I still say the only thing that will change this mess is when people start dropping from contaminated food. Sad but true..... Apparently, we (ALL consumers) made our point. This is only the first of what I hope will be many more to pull their production out of China.
