Do you buy Iams?

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

Thank you! I was feeding Nutro until I found out that they changed ingredients, so I switched to Chicken Soup - didn't want to have to change again!

Actualy all food that's been afco aprooved has been tested on dogs but that's just a food trial and doesn't mean much except the animal ate it for a few months and most of them didn't die.

And as for carnivores in reality they tear into the belly and tear out the stomach and leave it then eat the other organs first. They really don't want that. It's only little carnivores like cats or foxes that eat the whole thing because they'll eat the whole mouse or whatever in just a bite or two.

Not sure if what they say about Iams is true, but it's MUCH MUCH worse than just feeding the dogs the food. True or not, the descriptions are disgusting.

Yes it has been in the past but they later changed the ingredients, removed turkey meal and replaced it with fish meal that was perserved with a known carcinogen, ethoxyquin. There was some issue with this and they have now come back and changed suppliers to provide guaranteed fish meal free of this preservative, thus making it safe to use once again.

Of course. It's not whether the accusations are true or not, it's the seriousness of the allegations. To hell with guilt or innocence.

Hey there, I'm new to this thread - but I was searching through the web trying to find some bad stuff about Iams...because it is totally making my puppy's poop gross! Don't mean to be brutal, but it's like sludge with caramel. We went to the vet and he gave him antibiotics just in case it was parasites/worms/etc. Everything went back to normal, but now that the antibiotics are finished, his poop is the way it was before!

We are gradually changing his food to Nutrience, and I can ALREADY notice the difference in his poop!!!

Do not try IAMS!!!!

ok, that one really has me baffled. So you're saying if someone accuses two different companies (one guilty one innocent) of the same very serious thing, then both companies should be suspect because the accusation was serious??

It's sarcasm.
