Yup. I heard that too. Thankfully I don't use any of those. My vet was trying to push Iams and Science Diet on me and I told him that I don't like the fact that they test on animals. He tried to tell me that all the animals get adopted after the testing, etc. Blah, he was just trying really hard to push the food on me because those are the brands they sell at the office.
oh my gosh!!!! I use Purina One for Meeka!! I am switching right away! Thank you for posting that!:eek:
Another reason why I hate Eukanuba and Iams so much.. thanks for posting the list.
Yikes! What a long list, what a shame. :(
I am so trying to convince my mom to buy other brands. :( Our vet feeds his dog Eukanuba so my mom thinks it must be good. Riiiiight. *sigh* There's one brand of food they make in Quebec which seems okay but it's a bit expensive. :(
Feeding Mickey this stuff really bothers me. :(
I might be dense, but isn't it wise to test the food on dogs
- to see if they will it eat - Before selling it?
they dont test it like that... they test it in bad ways.... here is a website about IAMS...
Iams Cruelty- www.iamscruelty.com
I am glad I don't feed my dogs any of those! i feed mine Nutro's natural choice.
WOW!!!!! :eek:
my mom feeds my dogs Iams i will tell her about it maybe I will get
Kibbles-n-bits
or
puppy/dog chow at least it isn't on the list thank you for letting us us know
Katie's food is up there, but NOT for long.
Elvis's isn't though.
It's terrible....
Hmm, Has anyone ever heard of "Cadillac"? It's a type of dog food..I just got it for Patches today. :p
I used to feed Patches IAMS/Mighty Dog. O_O *shudder*
Yeah, pretty bad isn't it? And also, when you see the in gredient "meat and bone meal" that it means they are using euthanized retired race horses and pets in the food? A lot of foods have it it them, that's why I would never purchase a commercial dog food, because they will slowly kill your dog. It's a good idea to get a dog food free of corn, wheat, soy, sugar, colorings, and preservatives. All commercial dog foods contain preservatives such as ethyoxoquin(active ingredient in some paint thinner), Propelene Glycol(a close cousin to antifreeze) or BHA or BHT which is banned to use in human foods. All these cause liver disease, kidney disease, or diabetes. If you are concerned about your dog's health, search the internet for all-natural dog foods or check out the Canidae website, which is what I feed my dog.
