I went to Lea's Pet Products yesterday to get some food for my other dog Tubby who is eating Fromm as of now. I told the person I was thinking of switching to Blue Buffalo because I heard it's great and I have a $5 off coupon (and Fromm gives Tubby horrible gas-even though I LOVE Fromm). After I told her this her face turned somber and she said she heard a pretty reliable rumor that Blue Buffalo is possibly being sold out to.....PROCTER & GAMBLE!!!!
She was very disgusted to say the least because we know what happens when P&G buy out dog food companies....ugh!
I found this article about previous companies that have sold out to P&G:
Natura Dog Food Ratings - Dropped from 10 Best Dog Food List - Downgraded to 2 Scoops! (if you go down to the bottom and watch the video be careful-it is extremely disturbing).
I am going to pray that Blue Buffalo does NOT sell out because it is a great food for furbabies as of now!!!
I just wanted you all to know so that if you do buy Blue for your precious furbabies you can keep an eye out on it for when or if they buy it and then make the decision whether or not to quit buying it!
I will NEVER buy a dog food product that is made by P&G-EVER!!!
I also found this:
IamsCruelty.com and this one:
Procter & Gamble - SourceWatch
I do not have words for how disturbing and disgusting this is.
I don't know how old these articles are or if this has stopped but I am so disgusted and disheartened to think that I used to buy this product for my cat and for my dog previously...it just makes me sick to my stomach!!!
I will admit that I must be out of the loop because I did not know about how bad P&G is but I know now and I can assure you that I will make sure that I am fully aware and educated about these things now and in the future.
