Default Thousands Of Pet Deaths Feared!

Of concern are those pet lovers in the U.S. while anyone who can understand the complexity of seeing a pet loss can also pay attention and comment here. The link here is from one media source with several artcles and even video clips on the massive recall of many name brand canned pet foods. Apparently the problem of something still unknown is a cause for concern. http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/story?id=2974319

In the last few days the list of brands effected included both dog and cat foods with the initial thought on the wheat gluten used as a filler for the various flavored popular brands. For you pet owners pay attention here.

The reports on this started being seen this week. Yet the reports on a number of animals having the same symptoms and seeing kidneys fail and first in cats was over two weeks ago. It's taken this long for the news of this to get out? That's what actually seems more strange when you consider fast information can travel these days.

You wouldn't say that if your dog was lying next to you dying would you?

Hmm i worked for over 10 years at a vet clinic and was a certified vet tech i have never heard of food leading to kidney failure this would have had to been a long long long term effect not just a one time thing sounds like they knew this was a problem and never said anything... Thats why i will never ever buy wet food for my dog even though the dry is the same food just put through one more process lol...

This scared me too, but I think my dog is alright. I will definitely be careful when purchasing food for him from now on.
