    It's from PETA - take everything they say/do with a grain of salt.

    I don't know what to believe anymore. Who knows if it's true or not. They can make up lies about "facts" and make up false video footage just as easily as they can show the truth. But because it's PETA, I'm more apt to NOT believe it.

    It is a site created by Peta, therefore I discount everything on it, as they have lied and exaggerated their claims in the past, and go overboard in their efforts to gain publicity and funding for themselves.

    Here's the response from Iams:

    I too take everything PETA says with a large grain of salt.

    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?

    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.

    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.

    Whether its true or not, I personally think IAMs and Eukanuba, etc, are all poor quality foods and I wouldn't feed them to my animals, anyway.

    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.
