Walliered Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 I think I will learn how to feed human grade raw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeh2o Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) I think I will learn how to feed human grade raw. I lived in fear with the big recall that had the melamine from China in it. This time around I'm heaving a sigh of relief as I'm now feeding raw. Scary scary stuff. Walliered, if you decide to take the raw plunge, there are a lot of resources on GT and on the NaturallyGrey yahoo board. Lots of support, too.

Batmom Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 If you're feeding "human-grade raw," you're already likely in contact with as much or more Salmonella than is in the recalled dog food.

I bought it on line I e mailed and it sounds like I would get reimbursed. I don't know what to feed Lexie in the meantime. I guess I can throw together what she can eat like sweet potaotes and grain free snacks we have. I want to buy a small bag of something but I don't know what to get now? Grain free always works best for her Edited May 6, 2012 by rschultz Quote Lexie is gone but not forgotten.💜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't as susceptible to it as people are, though.

Batmom Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 I wouldn't feed items likely to be contaminated with Salmonella, Campylobacter, etc. to puppies, elderly dogs, or immune-compromised dogs. Or people. Some people do. YMMV.

Time4ANap Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Lexie may be eating some people food this week. How about tuna or salmon? (She may never want kibble again) Any canned (wet) food that she can eat Scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, toast, or green beans for breakfast? Not a ton of nutrition but would get her through the morning until you find an alternate for the week. Guess this is a good time to do a little "disaster planning" and figure out what we would be feeding if food wasn't available after a disaster etc.... We usually keep 2 40lb bags on hand, but if ours was recalled, we too would be SOL. Quote Camp Broodie. The current home of Mark Kay Mark Jack and Gracie Kiowa Safe Joan.

DaisyDoodle Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) In searching for "canine salmonella" last night, I somehow came across "canine SALMON poisoning". Apparently raw salmon can carry something bad for dogs too. Go figure.

DesiRayMom Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 I think we're gonna live dangerously. 28lb bag of NB Ven/SP is on the recall list, but already half gone with no ill effects......so IMHO he's gonna finish it. Please don't flame me, I guess I just like to live on the edge. Last year I finished up a bag of salad mix that was on a recall list, and I'm still here; another year older, but no wiser, it seems.

gryhndsr4us Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Check the info on this site: Dog Food Advisor I also feed grain free and due to the recalls am switching foods. I was looking at Nutro or Avoderm both have grain free. Now I have decided on either NutriSource or Fromm. Both are available where I prefer to buy my dog food and both have grain free.

Guest Krissyfissy Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 We went to Petco this afternoon to browse for dry food and the lady was out with the Natural Balance LID sweet potato and bison samples, we got a couple of them from her because we were interested in the limited ingredients in the food that are supposed to work well with sensitive tummies. Were all of the dry bags recalled? If not, does that mean that we absolutely should not purchase this product? I am reading that many of you are switching. I would like to keep my dogs safe, but want to help them have a healthy diet that doesn't upset their tummies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
