Massive recall of dog AND cat food

Morrigoon · 03-19-2007, 03:29 PM

I would consider bits of my steak or veggies or whatever to be far closer to "natural" than canned dog food. Years ago my mom found an article praising "real" food for dogs and delving into the evils of the pet food aisle, or "death aisle" as some vets (obviously not mine, apparently) call it.

Anyway, I saw a visible improvement in our most senior dog's health within a month of switching to feeding them real food instead of canned. We figure it added 6 months of quality living to his life, so count me a believer.

We've relaxed it a bit now (because cooking for your dog every night gets a bit involved), so we do mixed kibble and real food. Barnum has kibble all the time and then gets bits of whatever we're having (unless it's something bad like chocolate, or spicy or something). I think my mom browns meat, cooks it wth frozen carrots and broccoli, and then stirs in kibble and refrigerates it all to nuke for them at dinnertime. They love it.

Wow, now i feel really lazy, poor Barnum!

Dude! That is a seriously pampered pet!

Does your Mom have any openings? I'm not too proud to wear a collar. I'm very affectionate, love children, am already housetrained and need minimal exercise. Oh, and I've been flea-free for over twenty years.
