Donna–

Add some mushed veggies to that chicken and rice, along with some flaxseed oil and a dash of garlic–I bet your Buster would be greatful to have that over any of the dog foods on the market, and he will be safer too. Contact a holistic vet, who will guide you as to what would be a good recipe for your Buster…

Bob and Pita–

and now Dick Van Patten’s Natural Balance is also recalled due to Rice Protein Concentrate added to their food–which was also imported from china, and also contains melamine-
and they claimed that ALL of their ingredients were from the US–so who do we trust? I had used a couple cans of Merrick initially at the beginning of the recall, but then decided I was not going to trust ANY company-so I started making my dog’s food myself, and now Iam really glad that I did–because who knows what will be next.

This isn’t just a smoking gun. It’s a smoking cannon with great fingerprints in red paint and a sales receipt with the purchaser’s name!

In response to Donna’s query – I have found that MERRICK’S Brand and DICK VAN PATTEN’s Brand all Natural dry and canned food is best. There are absolutely NO additives or preservatives. It is all made from people grade ingredients; (so good even humans can eat it). I highly recommend these two brands. If Van Patten’s isnt available due to your geographic location, I know that MERRICK’s is sold throughout the United States. Good luck and good health to our furbabies!

I think he should do jail time. They knew what they were selling to us. At least make them stand trial and let a jury decide their fate. I am sure he is not the only one who did that if it is looked into more. Martha Stewart did time for the very same thing, so should he!

Does anyone else notice when reading these articles that there are “tests” mentioned and “test animals” mentioned? So, to confirm that their food is actually killing animals that ate it, they rounded up a bunch of “test” animals (cats and dogs), fed them tainted food, and watched them get sick and die?
They did not believe the reports of sickness and death, they had to re-create it in a lab and they STILL did not have a reason for it, only proof that it was happening.Could they not spend that time and money on testing the chemical analysis of the actual product?
I do not doubt for a second that he knew that there would be a recall and that he could profit from it in the end.

Oh, I believe him when he says, ““I hold myself to the highest ethical and moral standards possible.” Let’s face it, “possible” isn’t going to be very high at all when he’s already slithering lower than a snake’s belly!
