Dog Food Almost Kills Second Dog
18 Apr 2009
It pays to trust your instincts when it comes to taking care of your dog.
In February a woman from Indiana found her 10 year old dog was lethargic and dehydrated. She quickly took her to the vet where her condition worsened and she began to have seizures and going into cardiac arrest. Her Dog, Abbey soon died.She asked the vet if it could be the Pedigree dog food that she had been feeding her dog and the vet said that he didn’t theink it was the cause. Her Dog Abbey soon died.
Three weeks later she got a new puppy and fed her the same exact food. The same thing happened to the puppy and she was rushed to the vet. This time the vet listened when she told him she had fed her the same food and they immediately put her on IV’s and antibiotics. Fortunately the puppy recovered.
Later she found that the Pedigree dog food she had purchased in February at a discount store because she couldn’t find it any where else had actually been recalled in August the previous year.
She stated “If when they had a recall they just set a little tag out where the food used to sit on the shelf why its not on there I never would have bought this.”
The vet bill for her two dogs came to $1400
