Quoting: beeches but my dog died Sunday after ELM dog food. We put her down due to kidney/liver failure. it is real. She may be the first dog to die of this. I read that the FDA knows of six that were ill at least. She was 16 and had other issues, but the kidney failure was acute. And I bought the ELM in the recall.

User ID: 63772785  Canada12/05/2018 04:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sounds like someone mixing the feed read the ingredients levels wrong. Poor training can do that. I used to make hog feed and you would be surprised how little is used...but very potent. Easy to make a mistake if your training is shit. Also I'm pretty sure that animal levels like dogs can not handle human levels. Weight would also play a huge factor. 10000 IU to a 200 pound human is nothing. 10000 IU to a 10-20 pound dog....that would be like the human took 100000-200000 IU. Not good. |

You just can't trust commercial brands foods now. And don't think "Oh...my brand is an expensive brand...There's is SAFE." Truth is MOST animal feeds comes from a few main sources and is packaged as different brands at a main distribution --that's the info I read when the 2006 massacre happened.

Quoting: beeches all of GLP knows her as my avatar... and petpeeve gave us all a headsup. I hope no one else here has this happen. So sorry to hear this. Prayers lifted that little one is at the rainbow bridge. However, last year, my pup almost died from blue buffalo. Very ill and moving into kidney failure. I google it and found MANY pets had lost their lives due to this horrible food. I try not to feed the same thing every night. Dry kibble one night, home cooked meat w/ rice the next. Both seem to be doing better with that. Important thread  The real question is, do you even doodle Bro? |

I tend to go by how much you weigh. If you're PRO basketball or football players in big size, I'd suggest more vitamin D though. There are two ways to be fooled.

User ID: 77029481 United States12/05/2018 08:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There is a condition called hypervitaminosis, that becomes a health issue once a recommended dosage of a vitamin supplement is exceeded The Vitamin D is surprising though. Vitamin A is very toxic from eating liver from a bear or moose, and there are a few more that are probably in this group. Animal feeds have been a problem for several years, that are manufactured off-shore especially. The quality assurance testing must be inadequate or non-existent. Quoting: RepublicofTexas Yeah, I was shocked when I started to take vitamin B2 and had only been taking it for a few weeks and luckily had a blood test done and they called me right up and told me to stop taking vitamin B2. My levels were in the toxic range. It made me feel really nauseated. I had heard it was good for memory and mood but I am very careful with vitamins and supplements now. Just because it is "natural" does not mean it cannot be harmful. Melatonin had a horrible effect on me also. Be safe everyone and nice job for taking such great care of your animals! Triteia |
