They probably do this kind of thing all the time but everyone is on edge with the food recalls AND because of Rachael Ray, everyone knows the name Evangers now. The food isn't being recalled.
My dogs have vomited up Evangers before because I was an idiot and fed them 100% chicken when they are used to chicken+veggies or kibble. After I started feeding formulas that were pasta/veggie/rice/chicken, they were fine. Every dog is different. If you are concerned please contact the company directly and I'm sure they will be happy to explain it. Lauren I'm sure Mango is just fine!!  |
When Mango's vomiting first started, she was on the Evanger's ALS kibble, that I used to mix with a teaspoon of their canned chicken (fussy eater). She never had the latter by itself. After one week of symptoms, many visits to the Vet, I switched her to NV Raw. However, after a consultation with Susan Davis, I put her on a home-cooked diet.
I appreciate what you said about this being a paperwork/permit issue. They have always been a highly reputable company, and I would be truly upset if they were one of "those" producing tainted food. That being said, do you think I should have the canned food tested?? I still have one unopened can - or do you think this would be overkill?
Thanks for the reassuring info!
