Taking Gross to a Whole New Level

Last year, I posted about a great treat for dogs....Dry Roasted Duck Feet. While we were down at the beach, I came across a dog specialty store I had never been to before. On their treat shelf, they had something similar, yet somehow even grosser. Maybe it was due to the scale. These things were big! What were they you might ask?


Dried turkey legs.......

Lovely, right?

They really were pretty similar to the duck feet, just the leg portion was much thicker. The boys were just as interested in them. They looked messy, so I put the boys out on our balcony for their treat.

Look at the size of that thing!!!

Jimmy dug right in. It took a bit more effort to chew these up than with the duck feet. I always supervise when I give treats like this, and the leg portion seemed to splinter into toothpick shaped slivers. I really didn't like that about them. The slivers were stiff/pointy enough I was a tad concerned. I gathered up as many as I could just to be safe. I did let the boys finish. The toes didn't splinter at all so no worries there. Call me paranoid, but I fed the boys each a big handful of kibble afterwards to help pad any of those little slivers.

Did the guys like their turkey legs? You'd better believe it!
Would I buy them again? No way! Those slivers were too worrisome for me.
Did I see any issues later? Nope, not a bit. Thank doG!
So why did I post about them? Just can't pass up good blog fodder!
