I remember my x-bf's dog (Maltese/ Pekingese mix) having arthritis on his leg joints @ only 5 years old. He stopped going up the stairs & when he tried he screamed out in pain. He only ate those roll type foods, he wouldn't go near anything else. Now I'm wondering if it had carrageenan in it. I understand that it can also be a genetic disorder, Peke's tend to have back & leg problems, but carrageenan's ability to cause inflammation can make the existing problem worse.

I told them I wouldn't be buying BB until this is removed...I just left out we aren't buying it now but still.
Loll @ the bolded part! Hoping they'll do something about it...but if it's in human food, when will they ever get to stop using it in pet food.
