Default Look past the slick marketing....

Yes, I am a Rep for HealthyPetNet. I have not tried to hide that or mislead anyone here. If you question my motives please get a bag of your pet food and read the ingredients.

If it contains corn, wheat, soy, gluten, by-products, artificial colors or flavors or chemical preservatives such as BHA, BHT or ethoxyquin, or if it has sat in a warehouse for months. I would question the quality of the food and its nutritional value to your pet.

I assume we all want to feed our Yorkies a healthy meal and I don't understand what is wrong with getting pet owners to look past the slick marketing, packaging and advertising. Turn the bag around and look at what is really in your pet's food.

I rely on Dr Jane Bicks and her long career has a holistic veterinarian and food formulator, as my advisor on pet health and nutrition and I agree with her position on raw diets. BLowry's post echoes my feeling on this.

I'm not trying to tell anyone what to feed, or not feed, their pet but I personally would not be comfortable with the risk of feeding a raw diet.

I wish you and your Yorkie the best of health.
