Last time I talked to them (April 20th- The day Zoey died). They still did not have a specific person to speak to.

This the FDA's Animal and Vet. link Animal & Veterinary

I have also spoke to my "local" FDA office.

I keep hitting walls and need to take a break from talking to them. Sorry if can't be more helpful.

Anything anyone does is greatly appreciated- Even if it is just telling 1 person not to buy these products.

I am spreading the word. I may send a letter to the editor in the newspaper too. That way more people see it.

Her dogs seem to love the dog food she bought better then the Purina. We knew Sammy her yorkie liked it because when he came to hang out and play with Callie he would run to her dish and eat her food. I wish everyone would not buy Purina they make so much that if everyone stopped buying it they would really lose a lot of money. I feel like we need to stick together and eventually maybe we can brake them to do something or get the FDA to do something.

The FDA can make recommendations but can't legal force companies to remove products is my understanding.

If I have broken any YT or orginators rules my apologies but the info is well worth reading.

From Susan Thixtons website
Yesterday, FDA released its preliminary report of inspection of the Diamond Pet Food Gaston, SC plant. Though its brief, it is very telling. And the report brings up even more questions. Starting with...what in the world is going on at this pet food plant?

What brand of jerkey treats are you talking about? I've been giving Deucy Zukes for over a year. PLEASE, tell me it not them!!

[bgeier]

I have been feeding Science Diet to my Deucy since he was just a pup and one day, I actually READ the ingredients. He never did put on any weight..it would take him a long time to eat it but I thought it was the best...according to the vet. WRONG. A friend of mine told me about FLINT RIVER dog food which is ALL natural ingredients. I ordered the 7 small packets to see if Deucy would like it and OMG........he cannot get enough! I've NEVER seen him go after food like this before. I am SO thankful that my friend, Pauline told me about this food. She feeds this to all of her babies. We will never have to worry about ANY recalls on this food...they guarantee it. Please, do to their website and read. The 7 samples I ordered were only 4 dollars. The 10 pound bag is $27.00. Please pass this around!! Deucy has gained weight and I no longer feel his backbone. He's six now and this is the FIRST time that I've NOT felt his backbone!!!!!!!!!!!

Waggin Train, made in china, distributed by Purnia Nestle. Zukes is a good brand and am sure made in the USA/CA.

You can find more info about the Waggin Train on the two links and reference in a few post back, MikaTallulah.
