It is a very heart breaking article isn't it?  But it is the truth.  The first ingredient in the list is the main ingredient in the food.

WOW - I had no idea it was that bad!
I posted earlier today in the thread " what do you feed your dog" that we are feeding them Canidae. I know I've read the ingredients on the bag before, but went to check their web site again - and they use only "human grade meats" specifically, so hopefully have dodged that bullet...also use a lot of natural ingredients & the dogs are doing well on it.
you can check it out at: http://canidae.com/

If it is human grade meats than it should be fine.  Is that the first ingredient on the bag( human grade meats"?

Hi All,

Here's a great source for information on true natural foods. They are like the consumer reports  for dog care, and they don't accept advertising so as to not be biased towards any manufacturer.
It''s a very helpfull guide and I really suggest it.

We are currently feeding our dogs Chicken Soup For the Dog Lover's Soul, but we also switch between Canidae and Wellness.
