I want to suggest and let you know about Pet food .. It is certainly stomach twitching to hear the horror about the Pet food industry.. We hear about how dogs are allergic to this or that & we don't get the better results especially the Recall List
Most of the food chain pet stores that are selling for profile, the big company names such as Purina, Science Diet, Iams to name a few that are ripping our money to sell what they think are QUALITY or fit the nutritious values for our pets. Lets look past those talent design & the cute puppies/kittens on the bag & start looking what is going in our dog's bodys?
