Another recall.

I'm going to keep feeding my dog table scraps for now. I usually give her Royal Canin breed specific dry food, and I haven't seen a recall for it, but to stay on the safe side, she eats what we eat--LOL!

TANKS a Bunch for the thread,,,all the Ol'Roy just went in the trash...

If anyone is looking for an American-made, American-ingredients, food made specifically for carnivores, try ABADY.

You'll have to call them and ask for the name of the distributor near you. 1-845-473-1900 Or if you're on the west coast, private message me and I'll give you the name/number of my distributor in Oregon who can ship by UPS to wherever you are.

There are no fillers in Abady, so you feed 1/2 - 2/3 as much as commercial foods. So be careful not to overfeed or your pet will probably get the runs. And if your pet has allergies, you'll be amazed at the difference on Abady. If anyone does try it, let me know how it works out for you.

I used to feed it but got lazy and had been feeding Iams for the last couple years. I just rec'd my order of Abady yesterday, and I'm very happy to be back to a GOOD food for my dogs. (They make cat foods too.)

Made in Mexico? Made in China? More fruits of uncontrolled "free trade" with third world cesspools? How long before most of OUR food is in recall mode?

[Domandred]

Jeez, this keeps up much longer and we are going to need a ping list for pet owners to keep up with it.

My Purina One is still safe so far

[Grizzled Bear]

IIRC a certain Congresswoman, with a "D" next to her name, who is also speaker of the house is married to a man who is neck deep in Del Monte.

If it was an "R" next to her name the MSM would be playing up that angle.

Just an observation. By the way - NANCY PELOSI IS KILLING PUPPIES AND KITTIES!!!

Might want to check out this FR thread on alternative food for your pets, since every day more recalls are announced:

bttt.......

I've always cooked my little dachsund's food, but he gets Ol Roy for treats.

[BagCamAddict]

From www.petconnection.com:

"The most recent numbers from our Pet Connection database: (3/31 8:45 p.m. PT):

2,797 deceased pets (1,546 cats and 1,251 dogs). Remember, these are self-reported numbers, but there is now a widespread acknowledgement that thousands of pets have been made ill or killed by one of the recalled products.

Truth is, no one will ever really know how many there are."

I won't feed my dog what I wouldn't eat ... she eats Nutra Nuggets which is primarily lamb and rice .... no wheat or corn products or chicken, period. She's a Border Collie.

I'm not satisfied that the real contaminate has been found yet. I have seen reports that the melimine is parts per million or even parts per billion. Then you have labs saying they have not found any aminopterin in samples as was found earlier. I'm still waiting for another shoe to drop...

[beaversmom]

Did you see this? Gravy Train is part of the products Del Monte is recalling.

Wow. I found a pak of ol roy bark n bacon. It will go in the trash. I cut up one for my Yorkie and she didn't like it.

[4yearlurker]

Bummer. Our Willy loves those Ol' Roy bacon treats. I used to buy the dollar general brand once in a while. Looks like he will get cheese bits for treats.
