Stores Continue to Sell Poison Dog Food After Recall

In a shocking news story, head of the Center for Veterinary Medicine, CVM of the FDA, Dr Steven Sundlof says that some stores have not removed contaminated dog food from their shelves.

Initially, the dog food recall involved Menu Foods which has recalled more than 100 brands of dog food. That recall has expanded and continues to grow with more brands and manufacturers being added to the recall list almost daily.

Dr. Sundlof told Senators in a recent hearing that he could not rule out the discovery of more tainted food.

While the FDA continues its investigation and monitoring of dog food retailers, the sad result is that some retailers are continuing to sell contaminated dog food. While there is no evidence that this is intentional, the sad fact remains that dogs who eat this food are in danger of suffering from kidney failure and dying.

The Veterinary Information Network states that between 2,000 to 7,000, pet deaths have been reported since the inception of the dog food crisis.

With the possibility of more poison dog food being discovered and some retailers not having removed poison dog food from their shelves, reports of kidney failure and death in dogs will most likely continue to grow.

Who Do You Believe?

Elizabeth Hodgkins, DVM indicated that said pet food labels should be prohibited from proclaiming claims of safety unless ingredients are rigorously tested. The veterinarian went on to say that such testing does not take place.

Dr Hodgkins went on to tell U.S. Senators that:

“Through astonishingly successfully marketing efforts of the industry, pet owners and their veterinarians have come to believe that household pets must consume commercial foods, and only commercial foods, day in and day out, throughout their entire lives, in order to remain healthy”

We have long proclaimed the fallacy of this notion and the serious health consequences our dogs may experience if more attention is given to just what we feed our dogs.

The dog food industry stated the following in defense of commercial dog food products.

“Pet foods are safe,”

Yup, that’s it. One report indicates that Menu Foods blames the dog food recall on a clerical error.

Some deadly error !

As a consumer and dog parent, the choice is yours. Will you change the way you feed your dog? Will you find out if the dog food you feed your best friend is slowly poisoning her? Or will you believe the claims of the dog food industry?

News stories report that many dog owners are not aware of the impact of the dog food recall, nor have changed the food that they feed their dogs.

This is perhaps one of the more frightening collateral aspects of the story. Your dog depends on you for love and the basic necessities of life. Taking the time to become an informed dog parent can make the difference between having a long and happy life with your best friend or the possibility that your dog may become the next statistic in a database of recalled dog food deaths.

My small 8 year old dog suddenly became ill and no vet could determine the cause. Her life expectancy was 25 years. Don’t let anything happen to your best friend.

Dog Food Secrets Review

Growing up in a family comprised of a science professor, multiple registered nurses, and a surgeon, nutrition and health were always common topics at the dinner table.

As a lifelong dog owner interested in dog health and longevity I was curious to find out what Andrew Lewis had to say about the state of commercial dog food. I have spent a good deal of time and research on dog nutrition in the quest for the ultimate objective- keeping my dogs healthy and maximizing their longevity.

My independent research revealed that dogs are frequently classified as geriatric at the ripe young age of 5 years old. Why? Well the number 1 reason is diet. Dogs have nutritional needs that are frequently ignored or simply unfulfilled by otherwise well meaning dog owners who feed their dogs every day commercial dog food.

Veterinarians and dog nutritionists tell us that many commercial dog foods have inadequate proteins, fats vitamins and minerals. Not only that these commercial dog food products are loaded with slaughterhouse waste, toxic materials, junk fillers, heavy metals , pesticides, herbicides, additives , preservatives and more worthless and potentially harmful "ingredients."

That is not to say that all commercial dog food is bad. But, a lot of it is simply unhealthy and a hazard to your dog's health and longevity.

With this perspective I read Dog Food Secrets to see if Andrew Lewis would shed any light on this murky mess. As an ardent dog lover I was floored by what I read.

The state of the commercial dog food world is worse than I had imagined. Andrew gives an incredibly detailed look at just what is in dog food and tells you how to decipher what's in your dog food. He goes on to explain what your dog needs in her food to support a long and healthy life.

In fact, Andrew reveals that your dog's life is being drastically reduced daily if your are feeding commercial dog food. You are, in reality, killing your dog with some of the "ingredients" commonly found in many commercial dog food brands.

I made fast and furious notes as I read Dog Food Secrets and learned a great deal about healthy alternatives. This was spell binding as I now had a true path to doubling my dogs life expectancy .

With the recent dog food recall by Menu Foods, Purina and Hills Science Diet that have caused approximately 100 brands to be pulled from store shelves, this information is a must have. To date there have been 8000 reported cases of problems from contaminated commercial food that we are feeding our dogs daily. Dogs are suffering from kidney and renal failure as the result of eating commercial dog food tainted with rat poison, and a chemical that is used in the making of plastics and fertilizer as I write this.

Not only that, I learned that dogs are being slowly euthanized every day they eat many commercial dog food brands, and why. Andrew tells us how to put a stop to this slow killing of man’s best friend. If you love your dog, you have to read Dog Food Secrets, print it out and keep it handy every time you go near a dog food aisle in a store.

I will continue to report on dog food that is killing your dog as well as the handful of healthy dog food brands. The sad fact is that the healthy are but a few and the majority are unhealthy and potentially fatal to your dog. No wonder dogs are considered geriatric at 5 years old. Unwittingly, we are depriving them of their nutritional requirements and poisoning our dogs every time we fill their bowl.

To give your dog her best chance at a healthy and long life, up to 27 years or more, read Dog Food Secrets. You'll be glad you did. I know I am.
