My dogs are like my children, and I don’t take chances with them, ever.
A few weeks ago, I ordered a large, forty-pound bag of Purina Dog Chow to be delivered to my house. I’ve used Purina off and on for decades and have never had a problem with it in any way. As a rule, my dogs have always liked Dog Chow, and any other Purina variety that I’ve purchased. It’s not their favorite, but they readily eat it, tails wagging.
The next day, my black lab became very ill. She scared me to death. I watched her closely, not letting her out of my sight. She didn’t want to move and just had all kinds of other unpleasant symptoms. Fortunately, she recovered nicely.
One of the things I noticed was that for the first time in her life, she hadn’t eaten her food. Over half of it was left in her bowl. Not only that,
but my other dog had done the same thing. Neither of these dogs have ever left so much as a morsel in their bowls, ever.
That set off an alarm in my head, especially when I saw my younger dog sort of sniffing her sister’s dog bowl and then walking away like she didn’t want to go near it.
With my dog feeling better, I called Purina and told them what had happened. I was up front with them that there could also be a couple of other possibilities for the cause of my oldest dog’s sudden illness, but that I was concerned about the dog food for two reasons.
First, their reaction to the food, the sniffing, and how neither of them ate all of it.
Second, we were in the middle of a hot spell. The day the food had been delivered, it had been 107 degrees out. I also know that the food was placed in the delivery truck about ...
My boxer has always eatten Purnia Dog Products even as puppies, I have always had faith in them..My dog is 6 years old and has been eatting Beeniful for many years. This past week she has been throwing up every day afew times a day. Sunday JUly 5th I bought a new bag of dof food at a grocery store in Wintersille Ohio. I ways buy a large size I think it it like 17 or 18 lbs, and then store in airtight container. I am tracking back and I think this is when the throwing up as started. Have you haad any other problems with any other dogs? It does not seem to be stopping and I am going to watch today to see if she even goes back to the food. My husband is going to buy another bag today after work and we will not feed her from this oldder bag again until we see what happens. I am so upset, esp she never goes on the kitchen floor always my very lite colored carpet , and now I have stains of red in soome spots, do you know how I can get them out? I am worried about her doing this cause she is not a very big boxer. Please help me to know what may be the cause or if you got any other reports.
