I ask this because all fish is preserved with ethoxyquin on the boats at the time they are caught. This is a toxic preservative and can make dogs and cats extremely sick, and deaths have been reported in animals fed this for any length of time.
Dog food makers don't have to list it as an ingredient bc they are not the ones adding it to the fish. They buy the fish from another company and add the fish to their food. Supposedly, the ethoxyquin is burned off in the cooking process, but tests are not done to ensure a complete removal of the ethoxyquin.
How long had he been eating the Orejin? I'm thinking this may have been the cause of his increased ALT. |
great as i am feeding dee dee cod to pill her so is this something i need to be concerned with as she throws up white potato now after metacam nightmare
i also noticed the wild cod is from CHINA at sam's club so next time we will buy from costco as their wild cod is not from CHINA - wth is anything from US anymore ?
wild as i read alot on bats an no where ever read adding fat to it nor did jean mention it or our vet - not sure it would make a huge difference and the risk of pancreatitis in this breed i would not recommend it and would just feed normal diet do the bats as if it is there it will show up and i would want to know what they were without playing with their diet they are currently on.
very interesting about the toxins though as toxins will affect the alt
yeah i have read if bats are not normal they will never be normal so no need to keep redoing them over and over
