Deep Dog Doo Doo
Posted by Christopher Smith
One of our dogs is not aging well. She has been losing teeth, so we’ve switched her to wet dog food. We went with a “cuts and gravy” style of food, because it still looks mostly like the dry dog food we’ve given her. So far she’s taken to it with a kind of alacrity that she never displayed for dry dog food. Sure enough, just over a week after we start this, my mother-in-law calls us last night to warn us that CNN is reporting that there is a massive recall out on “cuts and gravy” style cat and dog foods. Sure enough, after checking things out on Iams’ helpful website, it turns out we’ve been feeding her poison (okay, not really poisonous, but apparently a lot of animals have suffered kidney failure and ten have died). For details on how to know if your Iams dog food is effected, check out this PDF.
