Did your dog have problems associted with the pet food recall?

The latest problems discovered were liver and kidney problems.I think my dog had other problems due to foods that got recalled.I did take all my canned food back to the store and exchanged it for new cans.I have switched from the Nutro to Eukanuba Sensitive Skin and my dog has almost cleared up completely.I had tried several different formulas of the dry Nutro Natural Choice with her only getting a tablespoon of wet mixed in the food very rarely.My dog was still having the skin problems associated with a itchy red spotty and blistery rash on her belly that kept relapsing despite all shampoos, special foods, and medications she was on.The vet ruled out causes being fleas, mange and seasonal allergies.I spent over $300 dollars at the vet on her,and am very thankful she is now healing thanks to my own research on pet foods.I wanted to know if there was a way to get money back\sue somebody over all of this?I heard of the rat poison in it too, which is why I am alarmed.What do you think?

well you would have never had this problem if you didn't buy crap food.





see I am always telling people that you need to buy better food because it will save you time and money in the long run. because if you buy crap dog food like this then your dog coulkd have an alergic reaction to the food ar this might happen.





now if you just would have done some rescearch then you would have found out which food were better for the type and size of your dog.





good luck with this.
Reply:uhmm.. i think that if it keeps up take her back to the vet.


thats odd.
Reply:I didn't have problems with a dog, but my cat suffered permanent kidney damage.





She started vomiting and lost her appetite, the vet took her in for blood and urine analysis and she was showing signs of kidney damage. They put her on an IV and catheder to flush her kidneys. 1 week and $700 later, her kidneys are at about 80%, which is as good as it can get.





Supposedly, if you take some of the recalled food in to get tested, and it tests positive for comtaminants, the company will refund your vet bills. However, if you threw the food out, it will be much harder to prove that the problems were directly related to the food.





As for food testing, my vet recommended calling your state's division of the FDA to see how/where to get it tested.
Reply:I haven't but is here. I heard that they spilt rat poison in the food and if your pet eats it your pet could die with in hours.


Oh but if you want to get rid of dry skin and make it shiney then rub orange peels on the fur and put some of the juice from oranges in their food. Also put oil in their food but NOT car oil.
Reply:Looks like your dogs has just as many health problems as my teacup. In fact more. My puppy ate this bad food (iams) and is 100% fine. Guess teacups really are dogs. and arent as bad as you think. tsk tsk for being so narrow minded.
Reply:you didn't say if your dog is long haired or short. I sound like to me your dog has hot spots.. it would be red blistery spots that eventually will loose hair.


My mix has a sensitive stomach and finally got her on Purina One for Sensitive stomach, it is a fish (salmon) base with lots of oils in it.. She is allergic to chicken and the by-products in most foods. Spend time and read and compare labels of your food...


I would also get a second opinion from a new vet and see what is really wrong. Have you ever done a allergy test on you dog?????
