Default Report from the Left Coast

Hi folks,
Just a note to let you know that here in Southern Cal. the problem with sick animals is just as bad. Reports from friends as well as the news media reveals that a lot of cats and some dogs are suffering renal failure. Many have had to be put down.

A news report today said that they believe that the Chinese were using the rat poison in the fields to curb the rodent problem, and that the poison has been mixing in with the wheat. Apparently this has been going on for quite some time. Tainted pet food has probably been on the shelves for weeks (months). I have heard that the poisoning of the pets takes place over period of time.

We feed our dogs food that is under the label of "Dick Van Patten's Natural Dog Food". It is organic and contains quality ingredients (no by products). It's pretty good stuff. It smells good and it looks good, but most important, the dogs like it. It is carried at the Petco stores.

My best wishes to you all,
Dick B.
