Pet Owners Making Own Dog Food 
Pet owners from the U.S. and other parts of the world are living a horrendous situation IF they have been feeding U.S. made kibble and canned food to their beloved furry friends.
We are lucky to have two beautiful and healthy dogs as companions: Silky-Lu (a Weimaraner girl) and Hannibal the Cannibal (a Basset Hound boy). Since day one they entered this home they were fed raw food, including raw beef, chicken liver, chicken necks or wings, raw free range eggs with the shell, and an array of selected fresh veggies suggested by the Barf Diet and Weston A. Price Foundation nutrition guidelines. Silky and Hannibal have never being sick, ...they are two healthy beautiful specimens with bright spirits and full of energy.
As a pet owner I can just imagine the pain and despair the people and all those sweet dogs and cats are living right now. What could be worst than thinking you are providing your furry friend with a good diet, when the truth is that you have been killing them slowly, poisoning them without knowing it. If this is your case, well, blame the kibble company or the vet if you want, although I won't speculate. How about the dog breeder that sold you the puppy and didn't give you good advice on what to feed him/her, they probably didn't know any better.
The following is a comment by William C. Douglass II, MD:
With the tsunami of horrible news of the mass poisoning of our pets has come a second wave of bad advice from amateurs and nutritional experts of all varieties including veterinarians and university PhDs.
The Associated Press tells us: “But veterinarians warn that making balanced meals for pets can be complicated and should only be a temporary remedy until the scare passes.” The “scare”? Hundreds, and possibly thousands of our pets are dead or dying and yet “veterinarians” (unnamed) are calling it a “scare”? The problem is that vets have been completely taken in by the pseudo science of the pet food industry. The vets are perked and petted just like the pharmaceutical industry perks and pets the doctors of humans. There are, in both cases, reasons for going along for prestige and financial gain. “Making balanced meals” for dogs and cats is not complicated. They only need raw meat and raw animal fat – nothing else for a “balanced” diet. It’s that simple. My two cats, Paint and Pistol, never had a thing to eat but raw chicken liver during their entire lives. They were never sick. They never went to a vet.

Wow!
No había leído sobre esto, pero es una situación bien extraña y muy triste. Es hora de revisar bien las dietas de nuestras mascotas.
Dharma, nuestro Schnauzer gigante, tiene 13 añitos y está muy bien… creo que nunca ha comido de esas latas horribles de las cuales hablas!!!

Asi es Maria Luisa, es una situación muy triste. Por la mala dieta es que las mascotas en la actualidad tienen las mismas enfermedades que los humanos! Que tengas una linda semana

Greetings,
I have a pit bull, and im not sure if its just the breed or my dog, he does not get fed people food. Ive tried a few dog food brands pedigree dry and wet food and science diet and he farts so much. Hes an indoor dog so the farting is an issue when i have guests over for dinner…Dog Nutrition

I agree with the article information and moreover,Check smaller local pet stores, animal feed places, ask your vet, and Natural Dog Food. I live in PA and I get mine at a local feed center. If not, try calling the company or search for their website to see where its sold at near you
