OK, I lied, I'm not quite done....
I just got to the store and this is the latest news from Natural Balance...what individual stores do is up to them...
Natural Balance will replace their venison formulas with any of their other formulas, but, will NOT support a refund or exchange for another food.
Mike has had calls all day about it. The people we have on it have said that their dogs and cats are fine and Mike told them to watch them.
Here's a thought...could it be that these animals that are showing distress are showing symptoms of the recalled foods from Menu Foods? They said that it could take from 6 to 8 weeks for symptoms to show up.
And as far as the FDA getting involved...Natural Balanced ASKED the FDA to set up an independent investigation....not the other way around. Also, Natural Balance took it upon themselves to ask that the foods be pulled out of concern for the animals, unlike Menu Foods who covered their poisoned foods up for MONTHS and the CFO sells 1/2 of his stock 3 WEEKS before the recall.... Let's keep it in perspective here people. Don't villianize Natural Balance. I still believe wholeheartedly that these are either symptoms of the recalled Menu Foods crap or the sudden switch upset their systems. At least Natural Balance was PRO active not RE active.
I wonder how many people have bothered to THANK Natural Balance for caring enough about pets to issue the pull themselves without waiting for the FDA (who wasn't planning on doing anything). Probably NO ONE!
Ok, NOW I'm done with this discussion...I've said my peace and if anyone listens, great. If not...oh well, I've done my part.
