    I wonder how the zoo animals are faring in all of this?
    I know the San Diego Zoo and Wild Animal park use a carnivore diet made by the same parent company that has Dick Van Patton's Natural Balance .Natural Balance has not been part of the recall nor does it look like it will be. I'm not sure about other zoos though.

    Thanks! One zoo I don't have to worry about 13,999(?) more to go

    Seriously though, I wouldn't have expected any less from them.

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
