    What an eyeopener about the pet food industry!!

    If you truly love your pets, this is a real shocker about the pet food industry. Things I would have never dreamed of are going into our pet's food (and one section even mentions human farm raised fish). It's very shocking, and disgusting. And it's not just the cheaper brands. Some of the brands she mentions you would never have suspected. There are recipes for anyone who has time to "do it yourself", but also recommendations are given for some commercial pet foods that are acceptable. I have been in the process of switching my dog over to a different brand, for the last 3 weeks, and I can see a difference in his energy level and his coat already!!
