He may not be selling dog food, but he is making mad money off of folks..... here is a link to his "Editor's Choice" sales pitch: Editor's Choice Dog Food Recommendations | Dog Food Advisor
I posted this some time ago and today I noted that he has changed it a bit, BUT it is STILL a sales thing. Now he makes you listen to his LONG story about his dog Penny and then his thoughts about ingredients.........THEN he hits you with his sales pitch for his exclusive list of foods....Editor's Choice. Love of our pups you say? I say love of the bottom line. Not impressed with him. at. all. He discloses that he makes money off of Editor's Choice...would love to hear that figure. LOL
I am laughing as I listen to this guy....he is giving me seconds right now to sign up for Editor's Choice.. LOL He used to have a timer on it.....I posted that all over and I guess someone called his attention to it because it is gone. It was a high pressure, get it now thing. Please.
Your comments about saw dust and vitamins are out of line in my opinion. You may think that you know it all and we are all stupid...that's all good. Think what you want. I also have my own thoughts, but I refrain because quite frankly what I have to say falls on deaf ears anyway. My pups are fine with what I feed them. I don't go with companies that meet AAFCO...I go with companies that spend money to do feeding trials. You feed what you want...and so do I. You and any other person I meet on the internet will not be advising me on dog food for my pups.
Please also be aware that many of The Dog Food Advisor's favored foods with great ingredients have ended up on recall lists. THAT is my point in all of this. Again, I say, looking at ingredients tells you nothing about quality control of a company. Not saying it one more time...it is exhausting. |
First of all, I’m not the one who thinks I know everything and you all are stupid, I think this type of remark is below the belt. I’m trying to get people to do independent research; I was hesitant to link “The Dog Food Advisor”, because many of you feel that since he’s a dentist, he’s not able to comment on nutrition. I use to think the site wasn’t very good, even the ingredient lists weren’t accurate, but I’ve changed my mind a long time ago way before RC changed it's ingredients, it didn't matter to me RC wasn't a 5 star food, it was considered a good food, and that's was good enough. I do think he’s doing a better job keeping the ingredient list accurate, and he gives the pros and cons to certain ingredients, not just one side, for example, the beet pulp debate. I know you hate the site, you’re an avid Hill’s fan and Hills diets are low rated so you are going to think this guy is an idiot. I wonder if he rated Hills foods as five stars you’d feel the same way? Anyway, I think he has good information to share, and there is even a page that
explains the limitations of his site and the problem with all dog food review sites. If nothing else, everyone should read that page.
The Problem with Dog Food Reviews. You can get a lot of information from his site, without purchasing anything. My point is to do some research before you automatically believe everything a dog food company says about the food.
