Let them know what fillers and by-products can do to their pet's health. Another good food to get involved with is Wellness. No by-product, no chemicals, no preservatives, Meat is the first ingredient, includes fruits and vegetables.<br><b>References : </b><br> Unfortunately some vets like to take advantage of peoples emotions.

For example my elderly (19 year old) cat can't have most store cat food, as it tends to be high in magnesium and gives her bladder infections, the poor thing. The vet carries food that is low in magnesium And my guinea pig (god rest her soul) had a tooth problem and NEED the vet food that was mushy... it was a loosing battle and eventually she lost, but that's not the point Also, you would think that nutrition, at least problems that can be caused by lack of proper nutrition or too much nutrition would be studied in Vet school. I think you are just trying to squash the competition. If it truly is a good food, then tell vets about it, and they will tell their patients. (or their owners at any rate)<br><b>References : </b><br>Personal experiance and comon sense Well I don't know about the preservatives, but most pet food you buy in the store isn't that great either….

They think Science Diet is the best thing since sliced bread!!!! They were still pushing it when it had Ethoxyquin and BHT in it!!!!!!!! One of our local vets tells people to get Pedigree!!!!!!!!! It is hard though, since no food will do for every pet!! Innova is a good food, but my dogs do crappy on it...and I mean CRAPPY!!!! Nutro is the same. And Artemis. Some people also cannot afford the more expensive foods. If they cannot afford good food, vets may stear them to Dog Chow because it at least doesn't have the many colors!!!!!!!!! It is hard to get people to make a change like that if they have been feeding someting for years!!!!! I knew of a lady that had great obedience and water Newfs. Her dogs looked great and lived long. She fed Dog Chow. What can you tell her???? She sees her dogs and likes what she sees!!! You can't win an argument like that!!!!!<br><b>References : </b><br>Vet Tech/dog breeder I have no idea!!!

No, you can't do it yourself, dummy, you can to PAY a cryogenics company to do it. Oie, trolls.<br><b>References : </b><br> Uhm, yeah, technically you can.. however nothing has been worked on to defrost living beings without turning them to mush.

And the brands that they sell are likely to have been made by other vets that's why people trust them. Next time your in a vets office look at all the pet food and do the same a the store there is a big difference. I have a dog that has been on an arthritis vet food for a month and its has not helped her, but the food in the store's does nothing either. Some people are blind when it comes to pets there are so happy when they find out that their may be a dog food that can help with arthritis that they don't care what their putting in to there pets. If your food has been tested and you know it will work then put it out there it will catch on.<br><b>References : </b><br> If you notice the vets only sell certain pet foods.
