If you use the Diamond Brand Dog Food, there has been a recall.


(I apologize for the multiple threads but my original one was posted in General Chat and it occurred to me that some ppl might miss it.)

I have worked for several pet food companies, and have a certification in canine nutrition. There is a lot I could tell you about a lot of different types of foods that would suprise you or just be very informative.

But back on topic lol, thank you for letting me know, it's not in my area, but I am going to pass this along through the rescue group vine as a lot of them feed Diamond pet food.

We use Acana for all of my 4 legged furbutts (and the one three legged one). My critter brigade loves it and refuses to eat anything but.

Check the ingredients in that dog chow and then google Purina Rendering Plants any you may be surprised! I would post a YouTube video, but it's very graphic and contains images of dead dogs, so I won't post it.

I hope this gets seen by enough ppl. I know some ppl using VGV diet (as well as others) chose to give their gliders "high quality kibble", and if this is their brand, I hope it doesn't give their gliders salmonella poisoning. (I don't. I don't like the idea of giving "pellets" of any kind, but I know there are ppl who feel differently and I hope to reach that audience. Wasn't trying to be a jerk by posting in two different spots.)

So far, there are no recorded sick pets from this...but you never know.

I use canned dog food for my english shepherd because of the corn in dry food and many other nasty ingredients. I'm not worried about gunking up her teeth, I brush them and give her rawhide bones.

Thanks for heads up on dog food. We use Blue Buffalo, our doggie loves, loves, loves the Salmon!

This one will probably get moved there as well.
