The Latest on the Pet Food Recall


The pet food recall just keeps growing larger, making it tough to stay on top of what is and isn't dangerous for your dogs or cats. For a regularly updated list, check the ASPCA's website. There's lots of great information, including a page on "what to tell children" about the food problems (the link is named "Visit ASPCA Animaland," about halfway down on the right hand column, illustrated with a cute cartoon of a blue dog and brown cat).

Pet Food for People who Love Their Pets


For anyone who is concerned about contaminated pet food, check out the offerings at Flint River Ranch. This what my dogs and cats eat, and everyone is fine . There's plenty of information at the website on the ingredients, how to make the switch to a new food, and a lot more. If you want to talk to a real person, try their toll-free number. Another nice thing: the food comes to your house via UPS, so you don't even need to drive anywhere, a major advantage here in LA. (Just fyi, I am not receiving any free food or goodies for mentioning Flint River. We just like the food and company's transparency about where the ingredients come from.)
