Ummm, That link has a virus attached to it. Norton blocked it automatically...not sure why it's on there, but it is.

Okay, i'll go look at it there...Thought maybe Walmart was messing with the link...LOL! I have an active imagination, but you Never know what a large company will do to keep Black Friday sales up.

Its obviously Walmart doesn't care- You would think people would stop buying these treats so Walmart takes them off the shelf!!

I would try to Educate the public about the treats- you might get further.

There is high new coverage of Black Friday. Hopefully, someone will get on the news to get the word out in addition to telling people in person! My parents were both interviewed by different news sources but it never got printed or made the news. I would imagine people picketing all over the place will draw some kind of attention.

I do educate everyday about these horrible treats.

My Zoey was killed with kindness. I just wish someone had told me before I ever feed them to my little angel.

Bump for the cause!!

Yes, I got the same link from The Truth About Pet Foods also. It's a great site for information about dog foods. Good idea to try to get the current situation more out into the public eye.

Hopefully it gets out there, and the black Friday thing goes out with a bang!- That is just horrible. I just wish people would stop buying the darn things… That would stop it all right there- It is very sad-

I heard about your sweet angel Zoey. I know your heart still hurts for her- I am sad that you had to go through something like that. You do so much work to try to stop other people from going through the same thing you did, I know your precious angel is still alive in your heart- It shows how pro-active you are.

MikaTallulah · 10-16-2012, 04:18 PM

I plan to bump this thread daily until Black Friday and encourage others to do the same.

Any help is greatly appreciated in spreading the word.

My dream is that these companies stop making the poisonous products and recognize that what have done is wrong. Really all I want is for them to admit they killed my dog.

I have not taken part in any lawsuits against them nor do I plan to because money will never bring my Zoey back! If I ever do get money from this company I will immediately donate it to a rescue in Zoey's honor- I don't want their blood money.
