This is amazing. West Texas Wend and I are doing a project right now that involves just one dog. It's a puppy that was given to a friend over there after the mother and sibs died. The Iraqi's couldn't afford to feed him and gave him to our friend.
West Texas Wend is trying to get Purina involved and I was able to round up some food samples, snacks, toys and stuff from my vet. We need to press Purina and send them this thread, WTW! (thanks for the ping). :)
I'm sure the US govt. can afford some dog food!
I forwarded this to my Purina contact...will keep you posted.
