    Ok, I'm glad it's not true. I didn't believe it for one second, anyways. Why does PETA do this, though? Can't they get arrested or something for false accusation?

    What everyone else said.

    I don't know if I believe it or not, either way their food sucks.

    One, it's PETA.

    Two, How can you promote a pet food as "Not tested on animals"?

    Either the Co. tested the food on animals before marketing it or your pet is their guinea pig.

    I don't believe it. They don't give any proof. They said they took video but didn't post it. It's PETA and they are not very trustworthy.

    They also want the give dogs vegetarian dog food. Isn't that bad or something because they are supposed to eat meat? It's ok for humans to become one, but I think/thought it would be harmful to dogs.

    Dogs are carnivores, so yes, vegetarian diets are harmful. Why people subject their dogs to a vegetarian diet because they don't believe in animal cruelty is beyond me. Especially since compromising your dog's health for your own morals is cruel, in my opinion.

    Actually, I am inclined to believe peta on this one. I don't trust proctor and gamble with a grain of salt. Besides, Iams isn't a good brand of food. It is crap that has a very low score as a dog food but so much money is poured into marketing that people are led to believe it is a quality food. I've no doubt that they could care less about the testing subjects that eat their food.

    It's from PETA - take everything they say/do with a grain of salt.
    What Sara said is absolutely right on the money. Besides, what dog or cat in a cage ISN'T lonely??? It's the way they worded it.

    I dunno... seems their may be, as some have said - at least a grain of truth to what they are saying. But they are such a radical group that one would have to wonder where the truth ends and the hype begins.

    Not saying I agree with the PETA, and I didn't really read the site to see what they mean by "animal testing", but could it be they are refering to the fact that Iams is owned by Procter and Gamble, and P&G tests cosmetics on animals?

    No, they specifically talk about Iams tesing its food on animals.

    Though it wasn't specifically an "Iams" laboratory the videos and pictures came from, Iams failed to mention that it was a Proctor and Gamble facility, and Proctor and Gamble owns Iams/Eukanuba. That is why the facility was connected to the Iams one -- same company.
    I've been BOO'd!
