| Oh my gosh! I am completely horrified! I will NEVER purchase one of their products again. Any suggestions on what brand of food to feed my babies now that I will no longer be purchasing Eukanuba? |

| Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier Formula. This is what I believe to be the best food for our Yorkies. Otis loves it, and he's happy and healthy. http://www.caninehealthnutrition.com/yorkshire.htm |

| So I have a question. My little Luigi has an extremely sensitive tummy and the only thing that doesn't bother him and make him sick is the Iams puppy food. My vet told me that is a good brand and to go ahead with that. I am totally horrified at those pics and that article. He has such a sensitive tummy that I can't even give him tap water. It has to be bottled water. So should try something else, when we finally have him regulated? We have tried numerous foods. Have they always animal tested? And is euchanuba the same company? |

| Iams Cruelty I use Eukanuba...and just purchased a bag. This is so sad. I'm going to send emails and complain. In the meantime, I see Royal Canine is supposed to be a good food from someone's post. Does anyone know anything about Flint River? |

| This is so disgusting !!!! I don't know how these people get away with the things they do. Those animals will go to heaven for sure, but the people responsible for this kind of treatment will go somewhere else!!! I wish that anyone involved in this kind of stuff could receive the same treatment as those animals and see how they feel about it !!!! Words cannot describe the anger i feel when i hear or see things like this!!!!

| Thank goodness Natural Balance was on the "good" list!! I wonder why Royal Canin wasn't?? Does anyone know how we might find out? I don't know how anyone could be so cruel!! You would think that out of the thousands of employees ... someone would try to do something!! [I know that people have to work but I would rather do anything than work for one of these companies!!!]

| Natural Balance I am going to try this one or the Paul Newman one. But neither have a puppy food. When can they get fed adult food? |

| i am not supporting animal testing and they are right video doesnt lie....... but cmon people...... the list of ones that are "safe"...... they ASKED if they tested on animals, anyone can lie.... and i honestly think that EVERY DOG FOOD COMPANY has animal testing..... maybe not in the united states, but they certainly test it somewhere... again i am not supporting any testing facilities but it is silly to think that any "pet food" is safe.... the only way you can ensure that your pets food was not being tested on other dogs is to handcook it yourself |
