Purina's grubby little secret
Having lost 3 dogs to the same kind of cancer - lymphoma - I'm on a mission to find out why.
I've fed commercial dog food until I didn't and my current dog is in rudely good health. No allergies, no illness.
I asked Purina what they put in their dog biscuits since I suspect the grains may be sprayed with gylphosate which is known to cause lymphoma in lab rats.
They admit to using wheat but refused to say where from. Their legal department advised that I shouldn't be told. Why not.
If you were feeding baby food you bought at the supermarket and the suppliers pulled that stunt what would you think?
3 dogs aged 5, 6 and 7 years. If my kids were dying at that rate I reckon the cops would be looking at me right?
