Look....I'm going to tell EVERYBODY like this. And I want you all to listen GOOD.
Does anybody ever wonder WHY our domesticated pets seem to ALWAYS die horrible, painful deaths? How come the majority of cases seem to be tumors, cancer, blindness, and even bleeding before passing on? Doesn't this seem STRANGE to anybody else? I had a cocker spaniel (red hair) when I was growing up, his name was Scotch. Scotch loved EVERYTHING there was to life. He loved going camping. He love playing in the snow. He LOVED going to the beach and rolling around in the sand. It was so much fun to watch him have SO much fun doing everything that we ourselves enjoyed. He would roll around in the snow and then pop up and look at us with his nose covered in white, and we just thought that was so cute. If we were at the beach, he would roll around and then pop up and look at us with sand all over his snout. Again, picture perfect moment. He even enjoyed swimming, of course, because he was a Spaniel. After about 8 yrs., Scotch started to get lethargic and sluggish, and began to lose the twinkle in his eye. A couple of yrs. later, we started to notice bumps appearing on the underside of his body, golf ball size nots. Come to find out, you got it, those lumps were cancerous and there was nothing we could do to stop it. We let him live a little while longer and then we put him down, or should I say, out of his "misery."
If you REALLY want to know WHY this is happening to our dogs. I'll tell you. The reason is not only simple.....it's obvious!
What are we feeding these animals EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THEIR LIVES?
We feed them dog food. COMMERCIALIZED dog food. What is IN dog food? SO MANY ****ING PRESERVATIVES AND CHEMICALS designed to keep the dog food from deteriorating, not to keep the dog HEALTHY. Does anybody even KNOW what's in dog food? Sodium pentabarbitol. Does anybody know what sodium pentabarbitol is? It is the SAME chemical they use to PUT YOUR DOG OR CAT TO SLEEP WHEN YOU TAKE THEM TO GET EUTHANIZED.
Why is this chemical in dog food? I'll tell you in a second. Dog food consists of EVERYTHING that WE humans DON'T EAT because it's to unhealthy for us to consume. If you look on the side of ANY dog food bag (with the exception of a few I will name in a minute), it will tell you RIGHT THERE that it contains BY-PRODUCTS. Namely, chicken by-products. By-products are the parts of the chicken that we deem unsuitable for our own edibility. Chicken feet, chicken beaks, chicken eyes, things like that. Would YOU eat that ****. NO! So why would our DOGS eat that ****? There have been instances where euthanized DOGS AND CATS are put into dog food. And what killed those dogs and cats: SODIUM PENTABARBITOL. So when you feed your dog dog food, you're not ONLY turning him into a CANNIBAL, you're slowly EUTHANIZING your pet over the years b/c you're slowly feeding him sodium pentabarbitol.
THINK ABOUT THIS FOLKS. YOUR DOG IS A MAMMAL. WE ARE MAMMALS. DO WE EAT THE SAME ****ING CRAP EVERYDAY AND CONSIDER OURSELVES EATING BALANCED NUTRITIONAL MEALS. **** NO! What do WE need to eat in order to stay healthy. Fruits, vegetables, meat, and other stuff that your doctor tells you to consume. WHY would any other mammal be any different? What do dogs in the wild eat?
Meat, real meat. Fruits, nuts, vegetables. ANYTHING they can get their hands on. Dogs are equal opportunity eaters. They'll eat ANYTHING! So why is it that sometimes you feed your dog dog food and he takes ONE sniff at it then walks away. Oh, he'll come back LATER and eat it, but not b/c he WANTS to. It's because he HAS to. ****! You're feeding him the food, he'll eat whatever you give him. He's NOT SUPPOSED to eat dog food ladies and gentlemen. He's a ****ING mammal. He needs milk and vegetables and rice (especially rice) JUST LIKE WE DO. We as a society are under the impression that the wild dog stomach, and the domesticated dog stomach, are TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT STOMACHS. This is simply NOT true. Yes, we have changed the way dogs look and act over the years by breeding them a certain way to achieve different colors and temperaments, but the digestive system of a dog will NEVER change. It's the same digestive system in the wild as it is in your domesticated dogs body. They eat the SAME ****.
The myth that we as dog owners are unaware about, is the fact that dog food is a complete and balanced diet for your dog. THAT'S BULL****! The reason we believe this is b/c the Humane Societies and veterinarians TELL us to feed them dog food. WHY? Because the ****ING dog food companies DONATE FOOD TO THESE ESTABLISHMENTS ALL ACROSS THE WORLD. If these establishments are getting free food, then WHY BUY ANYTHING ELSE? SO THEY FEED IT TO YOUR DOG, PLUS THEY HAVE DOG FOOD SIGNS EVERYWHERE PROMOTING "SCIENCE DIET" and "EUKANUBA", AND "IAMS". These dog foods are ****ing CRAP. So we look at this and ASSUME we're supposed to feed our dogs this dog food, when in reality, a REAL veterinarian wouldn't feed THEIR dog this food if they knew any better. It's a scam. It's marketing. Dog food companies would be out of business if the public KNEW what was REALLY IN their food. They basically get away with murder. Matter of fact, they ARE getting away with murder. By the looks of the FIRST post in this thread, they just GOT away with murdering somebody else's dog.
Look on the side of the bag and read WHERE IT SAYS "CHICKEN BY-PRODUCTS." IT SAYS IT RIGHT ****ING THERE ON ALL OF THE FOODS I JUST NAMED!
Commercial dog food is horse**** for your dog, almost LITERALLY. The dog food companies are such a scam and nobody is doing anything to stop it BECAUSE NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IS GOING ON.
Well guess what? I KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. AND SO DO YOU FOLKS NOW! It's common ****ing sense. Why would you feed your animal the SAME food everyday of it's life and assume it's getting a healthy diet? Let me ask you something.......Would YOU eat McDonalds everyday and believe you're healthy? **** NO, and dog food is the same if not WORSE than fast food.
You want your dog to live 134% longer than what your vet predicts he/she will. FEED HIM WHAT HE NEEDS TO SURVIVE! REAL meat. REAL fruits. REAL vegetables. Don't feed him sugar, don't feed him fattening foods, and DON'T feed him too much sodium. THESE are the human foods you need to stay away from, NOT the fruits and vegetables.
It's as simple as this: What's GOOD for us, is GOOD for them. What's BAD for us, is BAD for them! That's it! Would YOU eat dog food. NO! Then why would your DOG eat dog food? HE SHOULDN'T.
I spent $50.00 to get a Dog Food recipes book that gave me 100 HOME COOKED recipes I can make to feed my new dog properly. His name is Sam. He's a Beagle/Dachsund. Sam is SO happy to not be eating commercial dog food anymore that it brings a smile to my face KNOWING that I'm taking care of him the way me and family DIDN'T take care of Scotch when I was a kid.
However, sometimes I DO feed Sam dog food. But it's definitely NOT any dog food you buy over the counter. I specially order him dog food from a private family company that makes their OWN dog food that DOESN'T use any by-products, yet also provides him with the rice and Omega-3 protein that he NEEDS to survive. I pay $65.00 a bag for this food, it's called HOLLISTIC BLEND. And you know what, Sam is worth EVERY penny I spend on it.
), we found out last year out of nowhere had an untreatable (well, uncurable) spinal affliction prevalent in few breeds (he was a Doberman) and I had to put him down. One day we were wrestling around the yard the next we were in the animal E.R. and that was it. No time to even work ourselves up to it all 
One week later he was dead because of kidney failure. I really wonder sometimes if it was the food that killed him that has been in the news as of late. Sorry for the loss fox racer, it will get better but of course take time.
