    Well honestly I started giving him more home cooked meals and I started experimenting with some raw feeding as well. I looked into feeding a commercial raw food (I really like K9 kraving ) and I looked into feeding a raw freeze dried product but they are way too expensive to feed on a monthly basis. So I have been buying some food and cooking and raw feeding but I also wanted a kibble on hand so I went with a food called I and Love and You, the lamb and Bison version. I know next to nothing about it but it was evaluated very high on the C L Project. Again I know they may be very flawed but I wanted to be safe. Also I am looking to eventually buy a heavy duty meat grinder and try to make much of my dogs own food that way I can feed it raw or cook it if need be.

    I had been feeding Acana to my GSD for a few months. When I learned of the lawsuit I contacted Acana via Facebook and they would only direct you to their white paper. Problem is the white paper does not address the allegation of BPA being in their product. They will not discuss the question of acrylamide being in their food. They just will not provide any sort of mind settling response. So I contacted the legal firm suing them and what they said was the foods that have tested positive for the heavy metals and BPA are the foods made in Kentucky. Hundreds of people have joined the lawsuit so far, and I will have to call them back to get confirmation but he made it sound like they have had the food tested and I do not believe they are relying on results from the C L Project if I can put it that way. I stopped feeding it becsuse I would rather be safe than to just blindly trust a for profit corporation who disrespects its consumers by not even trying to alleviate their concerns and worries. I think a company can and should want to do better.
