Default Nutro pet food/FDA Probe

I have fed Nutro Natural Choice Lamb and Rice to our large dogs for years with no problems. Recently I had a reason to go to their website, when I searched for the website I found numerous customer complaints. The customers said when they reported their pets health issues to Nutro they were not pleased with the response therefore they contacted the FDA. Below is some of the info from and article on the FDA website.

"The investigation came to light when the FDA denied a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by ConsumerAffairs.com seeking a list of complaints and lab results the agency has collected regarding NUTRO pet food. The agency denied the request and said that releasing the information could hamper prospective or ongoing action by law enforcement.

The document(s) constitute record(s) compiled for law enforcement purposes, the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings, wrote the FDAs George A. Strait, Jr., assistant commissioner for public affairs."

There is much more, I have attached the link. I don't think they proved any link to the health issues but when a company ignores customer complaints and denies that there have been any I not longer trust the company. I am currrenty searching for a quality food for our senior Golden Retriever
