Love, for any creature on this earth, doesn't ever end, so how could they? Anybody that's ever loved an animal/pet knows how unique and special they each are (just like us humans) - I have faith that they get to go on too, otherwise what would be the point of their spending lives (usually way too short) with us? Wherever she is, she's happy & knows that someone, somewhere loves her

Matarilevich:  I don't know if this will make much sense, but I had a pet rat named Ann.  I taught kindergarten at the time and the kids loved playing with her.  She's sit on my shoulder and never messed when we held her.  She was the first pet rat I'd ever had.  I had many other pet rats after she died but not one could replace her.  There was something special about her.  It's been many years since she died and I still think of her.  Perhaps it was special because she was our class pet too.  But she was so loving.  I can't believe I'm saying that about a rat but it's true.  I'm saddened for you and your loss.  I wish our pets could live longer.   Take Care.  ;)

This from a dog safety site:

dogs can easily choke on it when the original large rawhide object is
chewed down to a smaller piece. “Choking is a hazard, and rawhide can
cause gastric irritation when dogs chew on it often,” he says. Wedeking
adds that gastric irritation can also cause vomiting and extreme
discomfort in dogs. 'Tests on imported pet products made from animal
hides by UK health authorities revealed many carried the salmonella
bug, a common cause of gastro-intestinal infections in humans." "They
found that one in three batches imported from Thailand and one in eight
from China contained salmonellas that had survived processing and
manufacturing"

this from dog.com
 R A W H I D E S,   C O W   H O O V E S,   &   P I G S '   E A R S



These well-liked dog treats are purchased in large numbers, especially
around holidays, by well-meaning dog owners hoping to give their pets
something special. These toys are favorites for many dogs and are
popular with owners because they keep their pets occupied and
supposedly out of trouble during holiday activities. There are
definite risks associated with these treats, however. All three types
are supposedly made of digestible animal products. However, they are
digested quite slowly and, if consumed rapidly, can cause either
vomiting or diarrhea from the many pieces still sitting undigested in
the GI tract. If the treats are swallowed whole or in large chunks,
there are additional dangers. Rawhide chews can lodge in the throat
and cause choking, or a large piece may be swallowed, scraping and
irritating the throat and esophagus on the way down. Once in the
stomach or intestinal tract, a large piece of rawhide can also create
a physical obstruction. An additional danger that is less widely known
is the practice, in some countries, of using an arsenic-based
preservative in the processing of rawhide toys. We recommend that, if
you do purchase these products, stick to brands processed in the U.S.
There has also been a recent FDA alert about the risk of Salmonella
accociated with dog chew products made from pork or beef-derived
materials: refer to the FDA advisory or
call 1-888-INFO-FDA. See below (discussion on pigs' ears) for more
details.


I had no idea.. I'll make sure I talk to my local pet store about it. they sell ears by the bucket load.. they are an awesome store who arent just in it for the money. They sell all types health products for pets..

Rose: We give Damien "almost pig ears" a better alternative to real pig ears.We use to give the real ones to Patch,he loved them but the fat is so high in them.
Damien loves his rawhide and we usually let him have a bone at all times..BUT..that said,he is NEVER EVER unsupervised while eating one and if he does chew chuncks off,in the trash they go.He is an agressive chewer and we have to keep him with chew things at all times,lol
