Hey guys, wanted to share this with my fellow dog owners.
Check your dog's food right now. If it's made by Purina or Del Monte, get them off it now! My dog has been sick for days, and the family was very concerned. We did research, and those two manufacturers have problems with poisonous materials in them. This is not just the jerky treats we heard about lately. Purina's Beneful, which my dog was eating, actually contains an ingredient in antifreeze and airplane de-icer. There's also a small amount of arsenic, but not enough of either ingredient to justify FDA intervention. But dogs have experienced renal failure and death from Beneful due to the poisons. Other brands like Caeser's and Science Diet are pretty poor quality.
I changed my dog's food to Blue Buffalo, and she's completely different - so much better today. It's a relief.
So check their food. Get them on something better. Watch out for corn and byproducts in the ingredients list; those are sure signs of poor quality food, which in turn have a higher chance of containing harmful chemicals.
