I about fell over after first seeing that as I got a puppy on Saturday and bought a bunch of Ol'Ray puppy food for him. Thankfully, I only got dry food and the recall is for the high moisture food.

[EclipseGST]

I did the same but I know a lot of people have pets on here and might use wet food.

I as well get dry food for my dog.

[AJ]

Fancy Feast & Purina is what we use so thankfull we are safe.

[EVOMR05]

We use Iams dry for both the cats & dogs at our place. Thankfully it wasn't the dry food. I feel for the ones that lost pets because of this.

Thought this would be useful for some of those who are nervous about the pet food recall. It's discussion group on how to make your own homemade pet food.

Jakey, if you are going to buy a pet at least feed him something decent. Ol' Roy is almost all filler. Get some Purina or something.

That's the plan from now on. This is an interesting website:

fuck'n rat poison.

[A//// Guy]

I was just about to link that. Wonder how that happened... interesting developments.

[stargirljulie]

I had yet to hear about the poison. Very interesting.

We have been swamped at work with phone calls and visits and bloodwork with concerned owners and their pets.

Thankfully, none of the clients at my office have been affected by this food recall. There were some clients that were feeding their pets the food, but none of those pets have become sick.

It's going to be interesting to see where this story goes and how it continues to develop.

Well today I picked up some Hill's Science Diet at the Vet's office. I know there is some Hill's stuff which has been recalled but this is not on the list and hopefully it never will be.
