With so many scares coming in the way of international commerce as it relates to consumer products that are imported into this country, I started wondering where my dog toys where actually manufactured. The last thing I would want to do is place my pets in harms way just so I could save a buck or two.

I own both big dogs as well as little weenies. For the behemoths I have to buy dog toys for strong chewers. If I don’t I’m usually not even back in the house from giving them a new toy before it is shredded. The little guys can sometimes take days to devour a new chewy. Way to give me my monies worth!

After looking at the chew toys, my next stop was to check in on their pet beds. While nothing negative about bedding has come my way, you can just never be too careful. And since I had recently purchased the big dogs outside heated pet beds, I figured I’d better really check on the electrical warming connections to make sure I wasn’t the first pet owner to report some awful story about their sleeping dogs getting electrocuted because of faulty foreign workmanship.
