The company's Web site addresses the issue in its FAQ section with the question "When giving an animal Greenies, does it affect their digestive system?" The answer "The only time dogs would be unable to digest anything would be if they didn't chew it up before they swallowed it. Canine and Feline Greenies are highly digestible when chewed."
I love this part...how can someone insure a dog properly chews something before swallowing it?!

Does that mean they have to chew it 21 times before swallowing?
Please, the way our dogs woof things down, I swear they don't even taste it at times.

Exactly... It's a wonder any dog can digest them! Another good idea down the drain... or maybe I should say stuck in the disposal!

I love dogs, but $5 million seems a bit much.
Me too, and agreed.
I've never seen or heard of Greenies here in CO.

Our little puppies (very small 3mo chi pups) LOVE them...I buy the bigger size tho. They should get 'teenie' but I buy 2 sizes bigger and give them 'regular'. That way (I figure) they have to chew them (properly) cuz they can get the darn things in their mouths!!!
One of our pups did get a 'Denta stix' caught in his throat tho, so I never buy those!!
