Nancy,
This is getting really scary. I feed Lemmy NutroMax dry food. Do you think it would be a good idea to switch to something else for the time being, in case the start to recall dry food as well? He has been throwing up here and there lately, and I'm wondering if this could be the cause, or if he got into the kitty litter box too much.

Thanks!

Ugh! This is getting scarier each day. Okay, I am throwing away the Iams dry food I have been feeding my dog. The problem is, i don't know what to replace it with. Any suggestions. I know I should just make his food from scratch but I am lucky if I get food on the table for the humans around here:-)))

Hi Everyone,

You can do something to help put the pressure on governments and the pet food companies . . .

Sign our petition at www.petitionz.org or answer our polling questions anonymously. Please spread the word so we can get the numbers that politicians and the industry will pay attention to.

Diane, Try Canidae dog food - you probably won't go back to the other commercial foods.
