As Wylie's Mom so wisely stated above, I hope that dog food companies don't use this research as an excuse to add starchy fillers to their food. Such decisions should be based on nutritional studies, not genetic studies.



The ability to utilize some starch does not indicate at all that starchy diets are good

I think intelligent home cooking Is best! I never have to worry about dog food recalls
