But if Merrick an why not the rest? Thats why I have interest in Merrick foods. No recalls on food just treats. Seems not to many ppl feed with Merrick?? But this is the same reason I wanna try Fromm but it could do the same as Nutri source. Which I dont think is that bad. Fromm and Merrick just have big selections where you can adjust foods and they are still similar so may not affect the food change much for your pup?? IMO if you aren't eating 100% Usa human foods I wouldn't worry to much if they add human grade vitamin to the dog food. Especially if it's a good company with no recalls?? JMO |
I do tend to agree.
We can do everything we can to avoid things from China, but the truth is... WE can't even FULLY get away from it in our human food.
I'm not sure a few vitamins and such coming from China, which make up a small portion of the food, are a huge deal because, like I said, it's hard to escape.
But of course I avoid China products when I can. The chicken jerky is an example of a scary situation that really needs to be taken care of.
I'm just not sure how I feel about it. But I do prefer a company who can be honest, or as truthful as possible, in where their ingredients are coming from. I'd rather them tell me that, yes, some of our vitamin mixes do come from China than not answer or lie about it.
But if we were to write off every company whose vitamins could potentially come from China... there'd probably be no companies left to choose from.
