Like I said before, the truth hurts! And I stand by my posts. Respectable, long time YT er's? I guess everybody on here really knows each other personally? LMAO was used in the last comment, maybe it's more fitting now? This is an online blog, information exchange between dog owners, written comments. Taking it a bit too seriously??? Serious enough to try and attack me personally? I did NOT target anyone in specific, just posted general available reading! Last time I checked this is a free country, no? Freedom of speech? If anybody is offended by the fact that low protein does not cause liver disease and the points that I made regarding canine research, maybe I can remember to wrap it in a flower blanket next time ! Last time I checked all I did was post and quote accurate scientific information. I did not come to anybody's house and forcefully ejected kibble out of anybody's dog's mouth! Now that would be what I call offensive! To suggest that my point of view and saying so is condecending, offers no objective reasoning whatsoever as that would mean there's a different set of rules for people who joined this list sooner than I? What if I suggested that because I've had my dog for (almost) 12 years, someone who has less years invested is inferior to me? Would not be fair, would it?! Actual people(scientific studies) did actual research on actual dogs! Having said that, I don't need to do anything but be a responsible dog owner and homework on the subject matter, that I did! Just to clearify; I quoted some or one of the kibble pushers scientific evidence just to show that EVEN THEY know low protein is BAD! Can't wrap that fact in a flower blanket and I call it as I see it! If anything at all is offensive, it's giving junk advise to new dog owner's looking to improve their pet's health not make it worse! Why not just say; hey, I didn't do any research yet, so I can't give real concrete advise, just opinion!???? Don't most quotes ask to be corrected if found wrong? The problem is, SOME of these new pet owners actually take the advise of some other members and never investigate on their own because they think the advise given must be accurate, since it came from a long time, respectable YT member! Some advise here is good, some is not! I just happened to find a subject that needed a contrary point of view! I get questions all the time about raw, I refer them to articles, websites, scientific studies etc. and I don't just offer some advise I may or may not have heard somewhere. Has anybody tried low protein on their dog? If yes, what was the outcome? Care to feed low protein to your puppy? Willing to experiment? No? Then why advise to do so to somebody else? I actually care about those owners and I'd wish somebody had taken me aside a long time ago and had offered me accurate info! Isn't that what really matters? The dogs? Their health?
