I was going to copy and paste this list but the site specifically asked that people not do this because they are continually updating it. VERY informative.

I am feeding Wellness canned which does not contain wheat gluten but says on the list that it is made by Menu foods. Would you guys try switching to another brand?

~Yorkie~Mommy~ · 03-31-2007, 02:31 PM

Well this gives me a litte sigh of relief from Chicken Soup kibble

Kona · 03-31-2007, 02:35 PM

Anyone have any information about Innova dry food?

Edit - nevermind, I did a find search and I found it on that site.

Morkie4 · 03-31-2007, 02:37 PM

Thank for posting it..........I bookmarked it to keep up with anything new added.

Amanda7 · 03-31-2007, 03:36 PM

This is a really good site. I would be concerned about any company that holds back information at this point.

This from Timberwolf Organics -

When contacted, they refused to say whether or not their food is made by Menu Foods, and said they can?t give out that information.

Makes me wonder if they're hiding something. They have such a great reputation, yet they aren't giving out info that would put their customers' minds at ease. I'm really surprised.

I did some reasearch myself and contacted many companies as well. I posted last week and many companies were extremely rude and wouldn't disclose much

RLC12345678 -- thank you so very much for your hard work -- I very much appreciate this list.

And Jess --Jess -- I am sorry you had to endure rudeness -- there is absolutely no excuse....

Thanks for the link to the list. I was holding off on opening a box of canned Friskies cuts n gravy cat food when I saw wheat gluten on the label. To be honest, I don't think I can trust any food that says "wheat gluten" on the label. Unfortunately, my cats all turn their noses up at the good stuff. I guess they will eat it when they get hungry enough!

well isn't THAT interesting. as Dr. Phil says .. those who have nothing to hide.. hide nothing.. looks like many companies don't want you knowing some stuff!

sassypup · 03-31-2007, 05:55 PM

great post!

Rudys Mom · 03-31-2007, 06:01 PM

Thank you so much for posting that great link.

I have cans of Evangers and Merrick and was holding off on feeding it to them, cause I was worried. But watch out Rudy & Lucky, mom's going to be giving you some wet food mixed with your dry tomorrow.

They will be so.... happy, I think they were getting tired of just the dry.

Yes, very interesting indeed. Many were hesitant to disclose that their products were made at Menu Foods. I can see why but I believe they should disclose that kind of info to the public when asked.

I compiled a list myself of the ones I called/emailed. I posted last week-thankfully it matches this list

to all of you who have done so much research to bring us this much needed information.

I would probably switch. We had not been using Wellness at the time of the recall, but had in the past. We switched both dogs to Merrick.
