I don't really feel feeding trials are done that great anyways. It takes big bucks to fund clinical trials because they are usually very in depth and take a long time to complete so of course smaller companies aren't going to be able to do them (which I'm not necessarily saying is a "good" thing). And most would most likely not be impressed at the regulations and requirements for these "clinical" trials anyways because they are in no way sufficient to produce accurate, life long results. It's a nice extra step, I think, but I'm not sure if it's worth it. I guess it's a nice added peace of mind.



PS - I just wanted to add, I'm not trying to argue. Just adding both "sides" because, as you said, others may come in and read this thread and want to research and find out info for themselves to find out what is best for their pups.
I did not say that they did not do feeding trials....I said I chose Hill's because they do. I am no expert in animal nutrition and honestly am not as interested as many of you....that is why I go to who I think are experts. One of them is here: www.petdiets.com

I am also not trying to argue. I bolded because that was really the main sentence I was addressing...although then I added the other. Bolding did not mean I thought what was said was incorrect. Of course companies market things.
