I don't think these pet treat makers realize that our dogs and cats are meat eaters. I am not feeding a horse or a chicken. What's up with all the grain included in these treats?

I don't like for my dog to eat animal poop. If she were to get into the cat liter box I'd have to take drastic measures yet this product is made from manure. What gives? This product does not contribute to a long life for my dog. Shame on this product! Boo.
