The NaturalNews.com article shares “Just to give you an idea of what that really means, just one rawhide ring weighing 8 grams would expose your dog to over 24 times the daily lead limit set by California Proposition 65. That’s almost a month’s worth of lead in a single pet treat.”
Some of the products that tested clean of heavy metal contamination include Hill Country Fare Dog Food, Friskies Can Cat Food, and Loving Pets Premium Duck Filet.
