NO CORN, NO WHEAT, NO SOY AND NO DAIRY

I had the science diet savory cuts ocean fish but the numbers didn't match--do you think i'm ok?
I never thought a pet food recall could be related to illegal immigration, but I underestimated the creativity of FReepdom.
They're fine now, but they're getting Friskies from now on!
Or not...
I just realized that Scooby, my Ozzy-Lab mix has been barfing a little outside the last few days, something he's never done before that I can remember.
He gets dry food, NUTRO.
Now I have to wonder. He's an indoor dog, and I'm usually outside with him whenever he leaves the house. We play and I usually watch him do his business to make sure he doesn't have digestive problems.
On the other hand, although he's not an indiscriminate swallower, he has been know to eat leaves...
Roxie thanks you. She one of our four.(Corgis are like potato chips--You never can have just one.)
Of the tens of millions of animals that have eaten this food, ten die. Hardly a reason for mass hysteria.
I just don't know what to tell you about this ;/ What I can tell you is that if it were me, I would just pitch it out and spare myself the worry. ya know?
The only Science Diet food that I have for my 2 cats isn't on the list. That being said, they refuse to eat it so it will probably get tossed out sooner or later. Mine have been eating Friskies products as their main wet food for a long time but here in the past few weeks they are refusing to eat the types that they would always eat before. I'm not sure what's up with them and if they are just being picky but right now I have many different types of wet food that I'm trying them on to see if they'll find a new favorite.
I only had one can, but it has already been eaten. I pulled the empty can out of the recycling bin to check it. I bought this by accident and only 1 can mixed in with the "entree" kind. They don't like it very much, but lick the gravy. The numbers don't match, but i am keeping the can to call the 800 number when they FINALLY get a human being to answer instead of a recording.
Give it awhile..and I promise you, this is much bigger than is being reported. It always is..

I notice that the very last item does not mention the word "can", although I suspect that it was intended.
The problem was traced back to where all these products get there filler (kinda like the spinach, dif names same location of source)
the supplier to all the labels/names.
Read the label of what you feed your animals.
I may spend $120 a month to feed my 3 labs Fish/Sweet Potato (no corn, soy, dairy, wheat ect) but I have healthy trim boyz and no vet bills. Except shots.
We have to go to a feed store to get it and they can't keep it in stock, I have to call ahead to make sure they put my bags aside.
New item:
Purina is voluntarily withdrawing its 5.3 ounce Mighty Dog® brand pouch products that were produced by Menu Foods, Inc. from December 3, 2006 through March 14, 2007.
I am sorry for the loss of your mommy cat. It can be hard to know when to take a cat in. We had a diabetic cat who needed insulin shots for three years. Then he was no longer diabetic, then he stopped eating. He turned to have a stomach cancer and we had to put him down. It all happened so fast.
I also remember our family cat died soon after she had stopped eating. My mom was going to take her to the vet, but she died before she took her. (I was no longer living at home, only heard about it after she had died.)
Congratulations on caring enough to research good nutrition.
I have two mini dachshunds and they eat the RAW frozen chicken/turkey medallions. I find this diet for them to be convenient and they are in excellent health!! Just thaw & feed - They love it!!
Information about what I feed. They also get a raw chicken thigh a couple of times a week to keep their teeth in good shape.
One thing to remember is NEVER feed cooked bones to a dog as the bones can splinter and puncture the intestines.
For anyone with a strong stomach - read about what is in most commercial dog food:
Thank you for posting this--I'm going to check out that brand
I'd like to plant a few footprints on the backside of the globalists who are responsible for us getting food from around the world that does not meet our safety standards. We've already had people die from bad produce and bad beef. Now our pets are getting sick and dying from food out of Canada. 'Ain't globalism swell? < / sarcasm >
I was really worried about my kitties because they eat meat with gravy! Thankfully, Friskies is not on the list. They're my babies. ;o)
