This is not the first time I've heard of hikers consuming jerky made for
dogs.  I've not heard of any getting sick but I don't do it myself.  I
make my own jerky...it's easy and cheaper than buying jerky, whether it
be for pets or people.  And it avoids all the junk
additives/preservatives found in the commercial stuff.

I recommend caution about jerky for pets.  First, I don't *know* but I
suspect that pet food plants do not maintain the same food standards as
plants that produce food for human consumption.  I would think the
standards for product storage may be lower as well.  Second, remembering
the tragedy of contaminated pet products from China, I don't give
anything to my dog that isn't made in the USA or Canada.  This doesn't
provide total safety as 'ingredients' can still be imported from places
unknown but it's *something.*  If one is going to consume pet products,
I recommend the same practice...eat stuff that's not imported.  If I'm
right about the standards in our pet food plants just imagine what other
countries' pet food standards must be...
