From reading this thread, it seemed as if everyone was ganging up on that person for having a differing opinion . I felt what they shared was not unreasonable and was extremely helpful. Sometimes we must use our own discernment as well as our own observation when making important decisions about our loved ones health and diet. Science is not the end all be all and because of its ever evolving nature it should also not be held as always being the definitive answer. We live in a world of infinite possibilities. if you throw enough money at something and look at something hard enough, science can prove most anything. |
Yes, of course, science is ever evolving. That does NOT mean it is safe to ignore it just because of what someone said/believed based on nothing but what they "think".
Again, you can choose to believe what you will. I am not here to convince anyone. I am simply NOT going to rubber stamp things that are NOT based on current research and simply NOT going to listen to armchair veterinary nutritionists.
People read these forums and I am one who feels strongly that I should not ignore what I think is not valid. I am not here to hog tie anyone. I simply share what I believe is valid based on that word SCIENCE. You just recenly posted something about ingredients in RC being appalling. I have NO idea where you got that information but as of THIS DATE there is no research I know of that would agree with you.
Sadly, infinite possibilities were responsible for many dogs dying from the "grain free fad". At the time this was pushed, many of us here on YT were concerned because there was NO science behind it. All that was out there was dog food companies pushing foods that were NOT backed by science or responsible veterinary nutrition. Now they know what was wrong with those foods............it was not just a simple thing.
OK...enough said.
I will continue to feed my very healthy and very loved pups Royal Canin foods.
