In 1683, an Ottoman army that stretched from horizon to horizon set out to seize the "Golden Apple," as Turks referred to Vienna. The ensuing siege pitted battle-hardened Janissaries wielding seventeenth-century grenades against Habsburg armies, widely feared for their savagery. The walls of Vienna bristled with guns as the besieging Ottoman host launched bombs, fired cannons, and showered the populace with arrows during the battle for Christianity's bulwark. Each side was sustained by the hatred of its age-old enemy, certain that victory would be won by the grace of God.

The Great Siege of Vienna is the centerpiece for historian Andrew Wheatcroft's richly drawn portrait of the centuries-long rivalry between the Ottoman and Habsburg empires for control of the European continent. A gripping work by a master historian, The Enemy at the Gate offers a timely examination of an epic clash of civilizations.

My dogs favorite treat.
Size: 0.06 Ounce (Pack of 16)
My dog loves these. He has tummy troubles and these do not seem to upset him. He’s never had diarrhea from eating these. The size is perfect. He’s a small dog and has no problem chewing these up.

Gave my dog diarhhea
Size: 0.06 Ounce (Pack of 16)
I love the design of these toys - keep my pooches busy for a good amount of time. However, these treats gave one of my babies diarrhea, possibly due to the sorbitol, a known laxative for dogs :( My dogs are both ~11lbs, and they would only get one disk at a time in their toys, and still one had loose stools. I know it's not the rawhide because he dosen't have trouble with regular rawhide, but these are so soft I can only assume they have too much of other ingredients inside. Update: I just tried the dental disks and my boy that was sensitive to the regular refills has no issue with those. There's definitely an ingredient in these which he is sensitive to.
