Hopefully this is not new news to anyone. If it is, PLEASE toss out any dog treats made in China. Please! (And probably toss the human food too)

Sounds like it is best to just avoid anything made in China and if that is true for all dog treats then it should be kept in consideration for human food as well.

to serenjane, We live north of Jax in Yulee and use the nasau veterniary hospital . We see Dr Kim Carter. She has been great in our basenji's care She took care of our old basenji until he passed and she has had our new babies since they were a pup. I don't know if she is the best basenji vet in our area but she had certainly been great for our kids. Ours are not the first ones she has had. We always see her because her partner is not as versed in basenji's as kim is. Good luck on your hunt for a vet. I am sure there are vets in jax with lots of basenji experience. if you ask around you'll find the right one for you. Word of mouth helps alot.
