“I have only read there have been no reported cases of dietary DCM in dogs eating foods that meet WSAVA recommendations for selecting pet foods…”

Here is a thought, maybe the people that are feeding expensive boutique and grain free foods are more likely to have echos and other unnecessary diagnostic testing done on asymptomatic dogs resulting in an increase of DCM diagnoses.

WSAVA only approves of 3 or 4 foods. There are many good dog foods out there that meet AAFCO guidelines.

Just keep up with the FDA alerts and recommendations and discuss with your vet.
