LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Wal-Mart quietly stopped selling two brands of dog treats after customers complained the treats made their dogs sick. But it hasn't
announced a recall.
Company spokeswoman Deisha Galberth says the world's largest retailer started pulling Chicken Jerky Strips from Import-Pingyang Pet Product Company and Chicken Jerky from Shanghai Bestro Trading on July 26th. Wal-Mart also placed a computerized block on all cash registers to prevent workers from selling the products.
Wal-Mart planned to wait until after testing before making any public announcement. Galberth says she does not know when the testing would be done or if the treats were sold at every Wal-Mart store.

Our pet Rosie, a 3 year old Chihuahua was poisoned from Chinese made Bestro’s Jerky Chicken Strips. She started with vomiting and dehydration.  she died July 21, We gave our dogs Bestro’s Jerky Chicken Strips. Our Sweet Rosie (our chihuahua that passed) loved them.  Up until today we never had any idea what happened but now with Wal Mart pulling this quietly from their selves.( I buy my treats at Wal Mart.) I truly believe that is why she died. We are totally heartbroken and will never forget Our Sweet Gypsy Rose!
