After eating a Dreambone Peanut Butter Pretzel Stick this morning, my dog vomited +6 times and had runny diarrhea all throughout the day. Several times during the diarrhea he couldn't get anything out and yelped in pain. I first bought these treats a couple weeks ago and... See More he had the same symptoms afterward the first time. I didn't realize it was the Dreambone treats until I gave him a second one today. I will do everything in my power to spread the word that Dreambone's treats are horrible, causing painful diarrhea, vomiting, and death. Why haven't these been recalled and/or banned after multiple proven lawsuits and cases against them? | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Vomiting See Less

Dreambone twist, Sullivan, Missouri, USA
2 weeks ago
My 12 year old dachshund has had diarrhea for 5 weeks. I found pieces of undigested Dreambone twist while cleaning up one of the earlier messes. After three vet visits, a X-Ray and different medicines, nothing has helped to stop the chronic diarrhea. She has lost weight... See More because most of what she decides to eat soon comes out one end or the other. It is so sad. | Symptoms: Diarrhea See Less

If he still is in this shape, I would get him to your vet ASAP. Mine nearly died! Had she not had IV's with Vitamin K, she would have died.

Dream bones dog treats, Jackson, KY, USA
1 month ago
We have lost our second baby, Pixie to dog treats made by Spectrum. They are responsible for Dream bones and Good n Fun. When we lost ChaCha we started to inquire on the dog food and treats we where giving our pets. Especially after all of them... See More fell ill. After research and comparing symptoms we learned our dogs had been poisoned. The vomiting and diarrhea come first. The neurological symptoms follow. Lethargy and flopping to one side. The the loss of the ability to use the back legs. The blood coming from the bowels and mouth. The amount of suffering so many furbabies have gone through are indescribable. I reported the illness to Good n Fun and Dream Bones. Still no explanation or response for why this is happening. Check the ingredients in your dog food and treats. The top three ingredients should not contain sorbitol. The FDA classified it as a laxative. The ingredients should be natural. I will not stop until the FDA regulates our products for our pets. Nobody else should have to go through what our family and many other families have experienced. No other pet should have to lose their life to in such pain and agony. We have lost two babies and the other two are under care from our veterinarian. I shared ChaCha’s report. Pixie, passed away at the vet 10/02/23. My daughter held her while she convulsed and she is traumatized. Justice for ChaCha and Pixie!!! | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Vomiting See Less
