And why not state the amounts of detected foreign DNA so vets and patrons could try to determine if it might be sufficient to trigger an allergic reaction in a very sensitive dog? Anyway, thanks for helping me understand.
Those are very good questions. In Dr. Remillard's studies, she states that we know that there are SOME contaminating proteins sources in some limited ingredient foods, but we don't know how much, and whether it's enough to trigger an allergic reaction. That would be a nice thing to know.
