Re: China gets added to the avoid list

BTW are you saying the person who gave them too you was horrified you could have such a high moral standard or horrified they had bought something with out thinking of the consequences. Somehow I think I know the answer but just wanted to check.

No it's not easy. What annoys me is that nearly all animal products are made in China, plus dog chews and some dog foods. I managed to buy Asti to new dog beds that were made in New Zeland as all others were made in China and she won't sit in the ones from China probably because she doesn't like the smell of the materials they use, she loved the New Zeland beds.
