Okay, today a friend asked if the Purina Veterinarian Diets were good food for her new puppy. Apparantly her vet yesterday gave her the whole monologue she had memorized from the Purina supplier, and sold her a bag of expensive puppy kibble.

I've always thought that by-products were considered bad. But if you look at some of the things that are considered by-products (chicken necks, liver, kidneys, etc.), these things are being fed by raw feeders. Am I missing something? Does it have to do with how they are processed that makes them ... more >>
A bit of new stuff added yesterday, for anybody who missed it...And of course, after the fact, this bit from their FAQ makes more sense: They never said it was safe. They just said they don't make ... more >>

Help me. As I posted in the TJT... Jemma's fur SUCKS! She got swimmer itch in the summer and lost 1/2 the fur on her back. She's only now starting to get her undercoat back.
