What did they do with all the pet food that was recalled?
There was an enormous amount of pet food recalled. Where does it all go and how can the public be sure it is destroyed and not put back into circulation, possibility in another country.
May 22, 2010 | 5 | pet foodI asked a pet food company if they did animal test and….?
Here’s what they had to say… give your opinions
Thank you for taking the time to write about Wellness® Dry Dog Food.
We perform a limited amount of food trials. We are passionate about our pets and their nutrition. We are very fortunate to have many consumers and employees that help us during the development of our diets and treats. We provide product for in-home trials and we talk to every person to find out how their cat or dog likes the food or treat. We also learn about the stool quality and any other benefits the food may provide such as improving skin & coat or palatability.
It is also important for us to understand some other important nutritional information such as digestibility or how our food compares in taste to other brands. For this, we occasionally use kennels with standard processes that provide reliable information. The kennels are selected based on them sharing the same philosophy towards animal welfare that we do. For instance, the dogs are socialized every day and the cats enjoy a specially designed play area. The dogs and cats are also available for adoption to the kennel employees and their families.
As animal lovers, we have to be comfortable with the choices we make to ensure our diets are complete, balanced and proven. We are very proud to rely on our own consumers, employees, and like-minded kennels to stand behind our natural products.
We appreciate your feedback and your suggestion to have that information provided on our website or label will be forwarded to our Marketing Department.
Thanks again for contacting us.
Apr 13, 2010 | 3 | pet nutritionIs there a such thing as a doggy dietitian,someone who helps pets with good nutrition? Where are they if so?
Mar 16, 2010 | 5 | pet nutritionDid you know they found melamine in the rice protein in the Natural Balance pet food?
In the article in Pet Connection.com it stated that they found melamine in the dog and cat food but it was not wheat gluten it was the rice Protein. It was found in the Natural Balance pet foods.
Melamine is a fertilizer and it is not good for animals.
What happens to your pet if they eat the tainted pet food?
I heard about the whole tainted food incident…
So what disease(?) does your pet get,
if your pet eats the tainted pet food?
I feel soo bad for the pets, and do what I can do to stop them
from dying everywhere… but what kind of disease do they get?
What natural grain free or rice only (no wheat or corn) do they sell at pet supplies plus?
It has to be from pet supplies plus.
Thank you I am looking at it now and I think my only choice (price wise) may be the chicken soup
If I couldn’t find them a grain free food within are price range I would rather them eat that then corn or wheat since rice is gluten free. They aren’t my cats they are my moms I have been giving her the guilt trip about feeding them bad food.
Can I trust my vet if they don’t know about pet nutrition?
I know that Vet’s get very little training on pet nutrition, I feel upset that they recommend Iams, Science Diet, Hill’s Science and Medi-cal. They are just recommending the companies that gave them grants in school. These all contain by-products, wheat gluten and corn and not to mention they were all involved in the pet recall of 2007.
Is there a way to find a Vet that knows about pet nutrition beyond what they learned in school? I checked the yellow pages but none of them say anything about healthy nutrition, there was only one holistic Vet.
So I called my current Vet recently and asked them what they recommend, which is the above. I asked the person on the phone what they knew about Wellness cat food, she had no idea what I was talking about. I guess I should talk to the Vet herself.
She is probably a competent Vet in all other aspects so as long as I know what I’m feeding her that is what is important.
How do we encourage pet food companies to change the way they do business?
Now that many of our pets have died, and many pet food manufacturers (including Purina) are recalling their products, how do we go about changing the way that pet food companies conduct their business? How do we insist that they stop outsourcing their business to suspect countries, suspect vendors, thereby endangering our precious pets? Humans will be next to be endangered by the “outsourced” food industry, mark my words.
