Stone face,
There isn't even a possibility. Everything you just stated started with a salesman with another company. Sound supicious? Then you passed it around in a Vet School and the answer you got was "I had heard that".
Your post is nothing more than gossip and you are putting it out where some other individuals who know nothing about dogfoods could read it and think it was fact. Was ther any concern on your part when they passed your complaint around till it ended up with a Dr. doing human research? Didn't even know vet schools did human research. Why was it passed around and no vet was willing to touch it do you suppose?
We try very hard to keep infoon this board somewhere close to fact and that post just doesn't qualify. As I said before, just look around and use some common sense and tell me that many of the trial dogs in the country that are worked harder than most any other dogs are dying from organ failure. If I am wrong please give us the names of five or ten trial dogs who have died in the past couple of years from organ failure thatwere less than 10 or 12 years old? That would qualify as a premature death.
I was told in passing by a dog food rep from another company
I called the Veterinary College at UC Davis in Sacramento. I was transfered around between departments and people
I spoke with a Professor who from what I gather deals with testing human food,
The Dr. told me in a kind of "you figure it out for yourself" manner that Purina paid the people off
He said it didn't happen often
he had definately heard about it.
Veterinary Medicine pretty much confirming
I mean I don't think he had any reason to lie.
I don't think he did lie either since he never confirmed or denied there was a problem. They call this being non confrontational. Don't tell people who are complaining, no matter how rediculos the claim is, they are wrong but just don't tell them they are right either, where they could be held accountable for what they said plus being sued for liable.
