Keep us posted!

I am very careful when I start seeing multiple recalls....quality control is an important part in the production of dogfood, and multiple recalls leads me to believe there is a problem in that area.

Stress often causes them to have bouts of bloody diarrhea...coccidia is often the culpert....it is treated with metronidazole with excellent results.
