Just shooting a quick post on here because I don't know if how well opening this discussion up will go...but I'm curious.
Grainfree dog food.
What are peoples thoughts?
Has the news of the DCM and heart failure risk changed anyone from these food?
Or is it a wait and see time to see if theres also some genetic links and other issues as well as the foods implicated with causing potential taurine deficiencies in certain dogs.
How do people feel about the fact that these products have not been recalled despite the reported deaths from longterm use?
Has this issue reached the Uk properly yet? It's been gaining momentum in the states,mostly as the fda have been pushed into investigating because of the number of dogs coming to cardiologists with this specific type of heart failure in breeds its not usually seen in. Its just starting to be spoken about more here in oz...
