 Rating:  - Who is pet food for?I t amazes me that so much of our supermarkets are given over to junk food - not ust for us but for our pets too. We have for years swallowed (literally) the idea that convenience is what we need/want. And now look at us - morbidly obese and chronically unhealthy - the rise in a variety of chronic diseases, including diabetes and heart disease, has clearly followedthe rise in popularity of junk food. And our pets are going the same way. We are desperate to show we care for our animals and most of us do that by buying what we think is the right food - WRONG. Commercial petfood is just that - commercial - it makes huge profits for the companies that produce it. But it bears no relation to what our aniamls actually need or would choose if they ... Read More: Rating:  - Pet owners, read this book!!First thing: of course the pet food industry did not comment for this book. Why would they admit to putting garbage in pet food when they own multi-billion dollar companies? But the sort of information contained in this book has dribbled and dabbled out off and on for years -- diseased animals, road kill, zoo animals, etc. And when you consider we can't even get good laws for animal abuse, is it any wonder no one much cares what goes into pet food? If I sound frustrated, it's because I am. It sickens me to think of what these big congomerates get away with chasing after the almighty dollar!! Back to the point. It took Ann Martin 7 years to track down the information contained in this book, a remarkable feat considering she's Canadian ... Read More: Rating: - EXCELLENTIf you read this book & still buy commercial dog food - read the book again!! This book made me read everthing I could find on the pet food industry & then how to avoid it. I now cook for all five (5) of my dogs & it is a chore but no matter how much it involves I hope I will never buy another bag of commercial dog food. I am so thankful that I found this book in Amazon & ordered it!!! Rating: - If you love your animals, this is a "must read"!Ms. Martin is one of those people who just won't quit. She won't be quiet, she won't be stopped. Nothing has been spared in her search for the truth in what is going into our pet's food. (And I'm sure there are those who would prefer her to be less industrious.) I could only read about 4 or 5 pages at a time, as I was so sickened to think about how many of my wonderful dogs and cats have died of cancerous growths, and how much I have trusted the pet food industry. If you are really committed to your pet's health, WAKE UP and READ THIS BOOK. Since I have been making my dog's food, as Ms. Martin recommends, the change in their coats, energy, weight, and love of mealtime, has been astounding. And it's easy to do!! Ms. Martin is an angel ... Read More: Rating: - On the right track but I diagree somewhatI feel every responsible dog or cat owner should prepare their animal's food. I totally agree with Ann about the commercial pet food industry because I lost a cat to kidney disease after feeding it a popular and costly brand of pet food. Unfortunately, by the time we found out only 25% of her kidneys were functioning. Luckily, through serving her a raw food diet and the advice of a homeopathic vet, my cat lived an extra year and a half with a quality of life any cat would have envied. I have had such great results that several of my friends purchase my raw organic animal food. I firmly believe cooking destroys the enzymes in the food and when you purchase a larger quantity than normal of organic food your grocer will sell it to you for a remarkably ... Read More: |
