JaVa I'm too cool for- a motto     Barked: Wed Oct 24, '07 8:31am PST  BHA is a known carcinogen and has been banned for use in human foods. If it's detrimental to my health, I know it is for my dogs'. Besides, no dog will thrive on a diet of corn, the #1 ingredient in this food. ETA: We are omnivores, our teeth, jaws and digestive systems are designed to eat vegitation. Dogs are carnivores, they cannot grind cellulose or digest it, their systems are too short.

It's the ones that go down whole that you see come out the other end. I love this subject! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

ANGEL Jill Ball, ball...did- anyone see my- ball????     Barked: Wed Oct 24, '07 6:08pm PST  There is a really good website that teaches you how to read a dog food label to determine if it is a good food or not. It is at www.dogaware.com. The person who made this web site writes for "The Whole Dog Journal" about nutrition. She is an excellent resource. There are LOTS of good foods out there. I was allergic Solid Gold, it made my hair fall out! But every dog is different. I now eat home cooked, but my big sister, Treasure, eats California Natural which is a really good food.
