I got my first Yorkie last month. She was a couple of weeks shy of one year old. In four days she will have been with me for a month.

I joined Yorkie talk before I got her. I was here seeking information and there is plenty here. I heard a lot of folks praising Eukanuba. I saw it on other Yorkie sites as well.

The hard cold truth about Eukanuba (Iams) can be found here:

It is so bad that youtube has a notice you must verify that you have read before you can view it:

I have found some alternatives to companies that use animal testing in such an inhumane way. I have just ordered some free samples (you have to pay shipping) here:

I could not, in all good conscience, continue to remain a customer of Iams or any other company with such despicable practices. I feel as strongly about this as I do about the puppy mills. But that is another issue.

So let us find some good alternatives and let Iams know that we are seeking alternatives, and why. I have already written them my letter. How about you? You can communicate with them from their website:

We all love our animals and they are important to us. But who are the experimented upon ones important to? Why, US!! Because it is our money that they are attempting to obtain and when we continue to give it to them when we know the truth, we are also culpable in their actions.

Thanks for reading. I hope this has provided reason for motivation in everyone who reads and views the information provided.
