It was the first time I really heard the story, but it's worth the few seconds it takes to read it. pentobarbital in dog food

Here are some other links that show reports, and surveys on the subject: www.fda.gov/cvm/efoi/DFreport.doc www.fda.gov/cvm/efoi/DFappend.doc www.fda.gov/cvm/efoi/dchart.doc

Apparently, the amount of pentobarbitol is low in the foods, and some of these reports are dated, and some companies say they don't use it any more. But why was it there to begin with?

Could someone copy and paste the brands for us to read here?
my puter is very limited on what i can download.
i need to read this thru somemore, sometimes we have to be careful who writes these reports to make absolutly positive they are credible.

I did not see one good food in the bunch.
Most of it was purina, ol roy, friskies, pedigree. I did see a Nutro premium, probably the Nutro max. I wouldn't feed any of them.
If folks do their research they'll find out which foods are best.
