[nagdu] blueberries and milk bones

[Tracy Carcione]

Hi Hannah.
I give my dogs a blueberry or two when they're in season, with no bad
effects.  I'd suspect the milkbones of causing problems, because I've had
similar experiences with milkbones.
If your family dog leaves milkbones lying around, that could be an ongoing
problem.
