Do you buy Iams?

[My Peanuts]

I don't like the ingredient in most all dogs foods except the high end foods without fillers. I feed EVO personally, when not feeding raw, and before that used Canidae and Chicken Soup, although I read recently Chicken Soup removed some of the better ingredients and added more fillers so I'm glad I stopped using it as that came about. Iams, Purina foods, Hill's, all filled with crap dogs just don't need that turns into bigger piles of crap in the yard because it's just byproduct waste that they can't utilize in the body. I would not feed grocery store food to my dogs unless it was a matter of life and death starvation and that's all there was around to get.

I didn't read that about Chicken soup. Can you provide a link or let me know where you read that? I'd like to read it too. I don't want to continue to use it if they chnaged their quality.

Sure let me find it and I'll post it.

I was mistaken with the fillers, it was the fish, it was a while back and I didn't remember correctly.


Ahh okay I found it, this page will explain the changes, it appers they did finally get a guarnatee from the company about the fish meal, which replaced the turkey meal they used to use. It was being preserved with ethoxyquin, which is a carcinogenic agent. It appears though that now they have guaranteed not to use it, so I think it's okay to use again.

Wait - so Chicken Soup is good, or not? I thought it was a premium food, and that's what I have been feeding Roscoe and the cats. Is it not a good brand anymore?

It looks like they worked out the problems, seems to be a good food still.

Ok, whew, thank you - I really don't want to switch them again, and they all seem to like Chicken Soup

I feed only nutro, i think Iams isn't too bad but it isn't too good either still better then any Purina or pedigree
all pet foods must be tested on animals it it required by laws ...
and yes peta has lost its way
they went from animal lovers to eco terrorist
they are watched more in the USA then any other terrorist group So if Uncle Sam keeps a watchful on the terrorist peta/alf/elf groups then I know to stay far--far away from them and don't listen to a thing they say.
Animals do have rights but Peta does have the right to fire bomb MSU( Michigan State UNI) to try and prove that point nor do they have the right to go to our public schools and attempt to turn our kids against us by telling them their parents murder animals .
peta wants all zoos to be shut down , no dairy farms , no k9 units for police ,no seeing eye dogs, no pets allowed of any size shape or form!
the list goes on and on even to your mouth wash and yogurt



again I think Nutro is the best bite for the buck
