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.

You eat Nutro Nuggets?

Kidding aside, since there seems to still be mass confusion, I wonder if there is a site where people who have lost their pets in the last couple of weeks can talk to the rest of us about the symptoms that led up to the loss of their pet.

One of the things that disturb me about keeping a running "pets killed" is that pets, specially dogs, die often and regularly from ingesting things they shouldn't eat or drink. No allowance is ever made for this, so far as I can tell.

You're right about dogs ingesting things that are undigestible. We dog-sat for my sister-in-law's six-month old lab pup this week. The dog would eat anything, including pulling up my dormant Oriental lilies by the old stems and ripping off the canes of the climbing roses. Yikes!

I'm wary of the dried food now because my pampered 7 year old lab mix drank copious amounts of water on Thursday and had seizures for the lack of a better word. The dog we were sitting for vomited and our Jack has been lethargic.

I put all of them on a chicken and rice diet on Friday and they are all back to normal dog behavior.

Dogs have been some of my best companions for 46 years. This recall has made me rethink the way I feed them.
