Thank you for this critical warning LPC!
I like Evanger's response, and am not saying it was their fault entirely, as the supply chain doesn't always disclose their sources.
But somewhere along the line some euthanised animals got put into that meat. And despite what it says on their label, beef cattle are never slaughtered by use of pentobarbital.
Whatever happened is dangerous, deadly and horrific.
What really goes into commercial pet foods?? (rhetorical question actually...)
The best we can do is make sure we get a good reliable supplier of wholesome pet food, which may cost a little more. And be prepared to pay it. Otherwise, the safest way to feed our dogs and cats is by choosing human-grade meat and fish, and cooking it with vegetables. Then finding a good species-specific supplement to add to the food, so there are no nutritional deficiencies.
