Thank you so much for all the work you’ve put into this. It is so irratating and frustating to see what’s happening and none of our elected congress or our unelected bureaucrats are doing anything to resolve the problem.
I feed my dog Solid Gold products and so far so good, but I’m keeping a close eye on her.

Not to mention that even reading labels, don’t aleays tell you if an ingredient came from China. Also, letters and emails to companies asking about their products are usually not very forthcoming. Even if we as a consumer wanted to make a statement against chinese products it is difficult because of the lack of information.

Thanks for the ping.
Pinging others.
We should ping all of FR and do a mass postcard mail to Washington, with pictures of our dead and sick pets.
Also pictures of our families, asking if we are next?
Read where the EPA is on this now, along with the FDA and the, can all these A agencies get their a$$’s together
