User ID: 75946253 United States05/25/2018 04:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Lots of people don't know what to feed their pets anymore. :/ Some rarely if ever read labels on their own food, let alone their pets food. And many just grab whatever is cheapest at the store. :( Merrick is supposedly the best of the cheap dog foods and treats (if there is such a thing as best of). I don't know, haven't read their labels. On the other hand, this is a 'voluntary recall' which is good for Merrick, at least attempts to show that they are just as concerned as pet owners are. |

Because many stores don't pay as close attention as they should. Ideally, the product is to be pulled asap when a recall goes out. Realistically, often many stores (including walmart :/ ) do not pull the item til a customer points it out. And in my experience, even when I pointed one recall out to a walmart manager, they did NOT pull the item at all. We really have to educate ourselves and be aware of whats going on out there. |

There were so many last winter, more than 10 total I think. I was really starting to think that something very nefarious was going on. If Walmart won't comply, AC 5561 had a great idea about putting stick ums in the pet food aisles. Each click feeds a shelter animal [link to theanimalrescuesite.greatergood.com (secure)] |

I do think something very nefarious is going on with our pet food, many companies are trying to hide what is going into the food, just as with what is happening with our own food. I do believe that many companies get by with barely keeping above the 'just legal' limits. Recalls such as these happen when they oops slip under those limits. :/ And yes true, great idea AC 5561 !! :D |

Cupful long grain rice. ( I put all sorts of veg. in. Just whatever I pick or find reduced at the supermarket.) I have two dogs and this makes enough to feed them for 5 days. They love it! I mix some kibble in with it too when feeding them. They fuck you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do. They fill you with the faults they had And add some extra, just for you. But they were fucked up in their turn By fools in old-style hats and coats, Who half the time were soppy-stern And half at one another’s throats. Man hands on misery to man.

I have a slow cooker and am cooking up a batch of dog food in it right now. Quoting: BloodyMary This is their favourite recipe lol 2lb liver 1lb turkey mince. 1 large sweet potato 1 squash Big bunch of spinach. Cupful long grain rice. ( I put all sorts of veg. in.

Especially with liver because it is the organ used to detoxify the body, try to use organic grass fed liver. Organ meat is the best and doesn't have the chemicals, antibiotics and hormones given to non organic fed animals. I can't always afford organic meat for my dogs but liver is an exception. Great recipe! Raw bones or egg shells added will provide an important calcium/mineral balance. Last Edited by akaSuzanne on 05/26/2018 08:14 AM |

One of my dogs almost had the same fate from chewys from china, but thankfully the vet saved him. He was so sick and was at the vet on an IV for days. When he finally came home it took such a long time for him to recover. He was 4 years old at the time. Had he been old, I don't think he would have been able to pull through. After that I have never given any of my dogs rawhide chews again. Each click feeds a shelter animal [link to theanimalrescuesite.greatergood.com (secure)] |
