@aspico Yes, they take slaughterhouse goods and restaurant Grease, NOT garbage.
and they sure as hell don't take roadkill and pet store trash/freezer animals, which go to landfills, or in smaller animals cases are simply moved to the side of the road (We really should do something with the rotten corpses, but we rarely do)
I wrote a small blog on this but I also included a link in it to even more powerful mind. There are many people who know this and I hope you all will also understand what´s really going into our dogs food...

What did dogs and cats eat for the 3000 years they have been domesticated before pet food was invented? Raw food. What do dogs and cats all around the world still eat where owners do not feed or have access to commercial pet food diets? Raw food. The goverment doesn't care and the pet food corporations do not care about the health of pets. They are interested only in making a profit and they do that by selling the cheapest material at the highest prices that they possibly can.
The one idiot that disliked this video must be the type that rejects reality without thinking twice. Hope people like that don't have kids because I don't want my kids to be around people that are too hardheaded to even listen.
There are SO many pets with CANCER ALLERGIES INTOLERANCES and all kinds of problems from bad pet food. It's disgusting! Why are our pets suffering like this and no one's doing anything about it?
I use to work for a pet food store, they asked me what I feed my dog, when I told them I make my own food. I was instructed to lie to customers should they ever ask me the same question. This is a store that doesn't even sell grocery store crap food but veterinary recommended foods.
@Windows8fanman Cats are carnivorus, their teeths are not built to chew vegetabels, and their intestines is not created to digest plantmaterial either. How your cat can live as vegan I dont understand?
The information revealed in this video really bothers me. Can someone explain to me what for example poultry by product is comprised of. Also, can I get the names of companies who do this so that I will never buy their products again.
Yo Gongsales I forgot to say it won't matter if you shit on the food the yanks won't notice as long as there is plenty of it and cheap the fuckers will eat anything fat cunts. As you are a Mexican and hard of reading I will type this s l o w l y O K ?
Try reading (I assume you can read) Fast Food Nation see how some of your countrymen end up in hamburgers
Wow you are Mexican as if you didn;t have rnough problems I hope you keep it quiete. How many times have you you crossed the Rio Grande? Din't forget your towel and a tip is not to swim with 200 pounds of ganga and certainly whilst wearin a sobrero hasta la vista fucker
What the hell there not gonna serve em live animal parts I Lu e in the country and my dogs kill and eat dead animals all the time who the fuck cares they like it
Not true, that video of dead animale was "food" being prepred for McDonalds, Burger King etc thats why Yanks are so fat cheap food served up by Mexicans who spit on the food. Fuck yeah way to go
dogs eat meat in nature, they also eat shit in nature. humans have a concious decision to make. all natural vegan dog food is very healthy for dogs! it's much better than commercial dog food filled with dead animal parts ground-up, and preserved with cancer-causing chemicals.
guys i need help what does by-product on dog food means? i tryed google but no luck
p.s. please tell me what to look when getting dog food i buy my food from petsmart - i just bought brand called "Beneful" and it says " ground yellow corn chicken by-product meat". please pm me
dogs and cats should NOT be in dog and cat food! diseased and dead / half-rotten animals should NOT be used! i'm feeding my dogs vegetarian grain-based food. forget that cancer causing dead dog food.
while i agree ... commercial food is atrocious... and applaud you for not resorting to them. Dogs arent vegetarians would you consider a meat based diet? they have natural pet foods that you can order.. and of course there raw :)
@aspico Peopl always call me an idiot when i say i feed my dogs raw meat and bones. That's probably why they never went to the vet(besides for needles).
Glad i found this video :D. Now time to show it around.
Why not feed a raw meat diet, we use only meat fit for human consumption, do a little research on raw meat diets, cheaper, more nutritious and dogs really love it, naturally!!!
Royal Canin is better than what a lot of people seem to feed there pets but there is much better food out there for the price of a bag of Royal Canin. Look into Orijin, Innova, Wellness, Blue Buffalo, etc.

That video is a lie, Pet Food is made of corn and pototoes and mostly other natural flavors. That video is just lying too much and made up stuff to make it sound bad and shocking.
Wake up! Corn... Potatoes? I've never seen a dog, on it's own volition, husking corn or foraging for potatoes. The point is, these mega corporations process cheap, virtually useless ingredients and try to pass it off as nutritious dog food.
please do your research before saying stuff just because it makes you feel better. Dog food actually does contain these ingredients its just not widely publicized for obvious reasons
Which brands are bad and which are good? Is anyone doing anything about it? Where's PETA? Fuck this video. Don't bring up problems when no solution is presented and no names are named. I'm absolutely sure this stuff goes on but where the fuck are the answers to the problems.
charlotte, YOU ARE NOT THAT SMART, ARE YOU? thats ok, lets go over this again. most people that have pets, care about them, and do not want them to suffer, with kidney failure, or any other health problem.
Most people just go to a grocery store and buy the cheapest food or one they have a coupon for. Sure some of the packaging is nice, but most people don't take the time to read the ingredients!!! Buy quality food for your pet! Read the label!!!! Don't buy anything containing by-products or fillers such as cornmeal! Wellness is a good brand also Evolve human-grade beef stew, available at a pet-food store!
♥Tommy the Chihuahua & Gracie the Cat♥ (Watch our videos!!)
This is 100% the truth. WHY it is at all legal for these scumbag companies to manufacture toxic shit and disguise it as food for our pets simply astounds me. There is no regulation. All of the crap mentioned in the video and much more is in cheap, commercial pet food. Spend some extra money and actually treat your pet with the love and respect it deserves. How do you think you'd feel if you had to live on a diet of toxic shit? Think of your beloved companion and make the right choice.
I purchased two cases of Evanger's human grade dog food. I usually buy in bulk. One of the cases, where the box was intact, in fact had 8 severely dented cans of food. Stewart at the company, refused to send out replacement cans. HORRIBLE customer service. He offered to give me coupons for stuff but no food. Way to lose a customer, Stew. He claimed I bought the cases 5 mths ago, but what should that matter, exp date is 2013, four years from now. Very rude and only talked about money.
Ok I live on a farm I haven't seen dog yet that won't go out and eat something gross. They can have the best food in the world and they will drag up something dead or eat a turd. Come on there an animal not a human. I am a dog nut there are best friends but thats the way it is.
Really? I once heard that there was a Vegetarian dog food but searched all pet stores in my surrounding areas but haven't found any. I asked around and people looked at me like I was crazy.
Thank you so much for the info, I will definitely be making the switch as soon as this bag of food is finished. Thanks again my friend.
You are quite welcome! PetGuard has veggie treats, too! And the best part -- their brand does not cost any more than the leading non-vegetarian dog foods.
Dogs are carnivores and should not be eating vegetarian food. I am vegetarian too but that doesn't mean my animal should be! If you can't bring yourself to feed your dog quality meat, please rehome him/her and buy a bunny or another pet that is naturally vegetarian!
The facts are that the pet population both cats and dogs are being poisoned by commercial pet foods. If people don't stand up for better regulations and inspections including human foods - you will see the same garbage going into the food chain. The only people getting rich off of this are the Pet food company CEO"s, like the ones on Wall Street.
Here is a serious question, doc: how can you fully avoid meat by-products? Even if you feed your pets fresh beef cutlets from the supermarket, the cattle slaughtered grew up on cattle feed, which was enriched with either protein meal or tallow, both of which are meat by-products from rendering plants. Cutlets of supermarket beef can contain trace amounts of pentobarbitial (used to euthanize pets) because those cattle grew up on cattle feed enriched with by-products. You can't fully avoid them
It's called "Buying Organic" I am sure you must have heard of cattle that are not treated with hormones, drugs, and garbage food? It's like the way farming was 40 years ago, before people got greedy and put refuse in to dog food. Yes there is a way to avoid it its called food inspections, and its called regulations for pet food. Its called cleaning up the food chain.
raw food, then you can actually see what it is. Then Halo is a good one and the one that is above that CDLver seems like a good company. You can avoid them and stick with only the best foods. Organic doesn't say much as it could be diseased organic foods. Road kill is organic too. The laws are very lose. xo
to think our pets, by our hand, are performing cannibalism! to think cats and dogs are ground up and used to feed catle that we in turn eat...we are literally eating our own pets! that is absolutely terrible...what a world!!!
That is how the mad cow disease started, you do not feed cattle - dead animals to eat, it only saves more money for the food processing companies, and pet food manufacturers are literally making a killing, but they are killing pets with diseased carcasses and dead pets from the vet's offices.
It is so disgusting that whatever stone we list days, we see those multi-billionaire fat capitalist bastards who man,pulate ppl with ads on tv, since the mass media is owned by them, and noone seems to care about the health of our lovely friends. Neither our healths.
Fuck this zionist order, the world needs to be built again and cleansed off of these bastards
Agreed, and we need laws that governments are not corrupt to uphold, unfortunately in the good old USA, poltiicans are bought and sold like pet food. Cheap.
Ultimately, it is best for all pets to eat hard, crunchy food. A kitten or puppy may need a combination of canned food and dry food for a month or more as their digestive system matures but do not mix milk in with your pet's food, and do not soak any dry food in water. These are common mistakes that can really upset your pet's digestion. Again, ultimately, it is best for all pets to eat hard, crunchy food and that means dry food.
The only sure fire way is to make your own. That way you control what nutrients your dog gets, not some bottom line, profit hungry corporation. There are plenty of books on the subject with facts and good recipes. I would also definitely add a good protein, vitamin and mineral supplement such as K9-Rx to insure a solid, nutritional meal. What did dogs eat prior to corporate, mass produced dog food - for centuries? - Human Food!
What can we feed our pets?What is the best natural cat and dog food?Should we go to health food stores?Some vets lie about where animals end up.Some will say they mass cremate them but don't believe it.
The best food is Halo, Harmony Farms, Blue Buffalo and Paul Newman's. They have high quality controls and are USDA inspected so there isn't much chance of dogs, cats or roadkill getting in the food. Also they have no or low recall histories and no class actions. They have not harmful preservatives like BHT, BHA, etc. You should read Ann N. Martin's book. I hope this helps! (Halo is at petco & paul newman's and harmony farms are at target.) I found some1 named lumiesoul...she has some good vids.)

Hi MsDiamond Dogs :) Thanks so much for the information!I was extremely shocked to find what is in our pets food.I am thrilled to hear about the quality controlls and that the
food is USDA inspected.BHT and BHA is also of great concern.I didn't know Paul Newman had pet food.He was always concerned about pure
species appropriate food.....real meat like we eat....dogs can even eat meat that has spoiled, e-coli and salmonella just doesn't bother them due to their short digestive tract....the food is in and out of them, and the germs don't have a chance to do any harm, they lick their bums, remember?....
ask your friends and neighbours for any freezerburnt meat they have, it's better for them than "pet food", it's still real food to start with....dogs will eat baked roadkill, given a half chance too
Must have different regs in the US compared to the UK then, As rendered pets and contaminated meats are a totally different category to what goes into pet food. We have seperate factorys that deal with pet foods and waste products. I also still state the "Green" on the material is a food dye. Look it up in the regulations, And it's actually a blue colour before it's sprayed on.
Yes UK is far more advanced and ethical in pet food thern america. japan and cananda. Ann N. Martin states that in her book. It's illegal (as it should be) to use dogs or cats, horses tec. in pet food in the UK. I don't know how safe there preservatives are though. I do know many people who can afford it prefer to import pet food from the UK becuase it is generally higher quality. I believe it's PFMA or something that does special regulations or something. In the
The UK has the very best animal welfare.I've always been very impressed by their concern about animals.The US has such mass production that only special brands are safe for the pets.The general typical pet food is substandard for well being.
well said prariepaint (cool name) It is true and it needs to by stopped. Good foods are The Honest Kitchen, The Holistic Blend and Halo and Know Better Dog Food
I have based thisoff of what I've observed of pet food companies.those that are questionable , tend to have class actions and recalls.I've watched the FDA and learned there's real no regulation.plus many of them actually own some of the pet food companies. I've looked at boos such as Ann N Martin's, Liz Palika's Dr. Pitcairn DVM PHD and the skeptics as well who say there is reason evidence for these concerns.I've looked at neutral parties who agree pet food needs further studying and regulation.
Why was sodium pentobarbital in the pet food then? Why are all the FDA/CVM tests inaccurate, like preforming them only after they've been cooked so r the DNA is destroyed? Rendering dogs and cats can occur on accident because all the dead things get mixed together, so it's hard to separate. Renders shouldn't even be picking up dead animals, shelters and vets should cremate them. Also please remember not all rendering have do the same things. quote lumiesoul...true
This is true, sadly. Just make your own dog food or cat food or buy the good stuff like Halo, Holistic Blend or Ami's Pet Products. And DivaofGraves...I saw that and I find it disturbing...but it's unfortunately true.
(Below was response to someone who said all dog food is safe, which it is not! Many brands of class actions, recalls and are grain based, which wouldn't be if they were safe!)
If you want good commercial dog food use Halo, Harmony Farms, Blue Buffalo, The Honest Kitchen, Paul newman's organics or Life's Abndance! They have no class actions, low or no recall history and have reliable sources for meat so dogs and cats don't get mixed in, also no cancer causing chemicals. Go to see life's abundance website for more info, or cook your dog's meals.
Try "Halo" dog and cat food. It has literally cured my dog of liver disease and my mom's cat of serious kidney problems. Petco has it or can order online.
I tried Vegetarian for my dogs but they would not eat it. And the truth is, dogs and cats in the wild eat meat so trying to change their natural diet doesn't make a lot of sense except to make a vegetarian (I'm an ex-vegetarian) feel better about having a carnivore in the house.
This woman isn't promoting vegetarian diets for animals, only WHOLESOME foods, also known as HUMAN GRADE foods. She is talking about ingredients our government now allows pet food manufacturers to use in their products. Would you eat these things?
Not all pet food is manufactured in such a horrid and sick way. I feed mine Kumpi and Orijen, of which the manufacturing process has the highest quality standards in place. Kumpi's president did stop allowing meat meal in their recipe since they were turning away so much of it due to bad meat not meeting quality standards. But that could be for many different reasons and not because it was a cat or dog in the food.
most commercial dog food is disgusting. good for her for telling the truth about dog food. i feed my dog a vegetarian dog food..(I won't post the name of it here, but you can search on Google for vegetarian dog food if you're interested.)

Thats crap! I work at a rendering plant,and we have different catagory's for pet foods and waste.The stuff they show here goes straight to incineration,after it's been processed.

The product in this video does not end up back in the food chain of any kind. It's easy for some bint to show a video of a rendering plant saying it's whats in pet food. It does it's job i suppose by getting peoples backs up like it has here.
Sadly is is true...Darling International one of the world's largest render's says it's happening, so are vets, dog food companies and many others. Also there are no FDA or AAFCO rules against this and plus sodium pentobarbital was found in pet food, the FDA/CVM said it could be from horses, in their first report...later they released a report saying they don't really know and the AAFCO ssaid meat meal could consist of beloved pets. look at what Diva of Graves said. I have researched this alot.
Very true Lumiesoul. Their is alot of inconclusive, conveniently placed things out there. Companies hope we'll all just shut up but no way in heck I'm I ever shutting up.
Dead cattle dead horses...of course they're dead dumbass. I think we all prefer dead animals to eat

All of the crap mentioned in the video and much more is in cheap, commercial pet food. Spend some extra money and actually treat your pet with the love and respect it deserves. How do you think you'd feel if you had to live on a diet of toxic shit? Think of your beloved companion and make the right choice.

I purchased two cases of Evanger's human grade dog food. I usually buy in bulk. One of the cases, where the box was intact, in fact had 8 severely dented cans of food. Stewart at the company, refused to send out replacement cans. HORRIBLE customer service. He offered to give me coupons for stuff but no food. Way to lose a customer, Stew. He claimed I bought the cases 5 mths ago, but what should that matter, exp date is 2013, four years from now. Very rude and only talked about money.

Ok I live on a farm I haven't seen dog yet that won't go out and eat something gross. They can have the best food in the world and they will drag up something dead or eat a turd. Come on there an animal not a human. I am a dog nut there are best friends but thats the way it is.

1. Dogs have a very poor sense of taste and will eat virtually anything resembling food
2. Dogs are natural gorgers, a throwback to their wild days when they weren't sure where their next meal was coming from or if it was coming at all.
Its not their fault we took on the care of them so lets all do it!!!!!!! Thumbs up to emptyyears

Avoice4theunheard, PetGuard Organics has vegetarian and vegan dog food, both available online and in most health and pet food stores!
There are others, but PetGuard is widely available in markets.

Really? I once heard that there was a Vegetarian dog food but searched all pet stores in my surrounding areas but haven't found any. I asked around and people looked at me like I was crazy.
Thank you so much for the info, I will definitely be making the switch as soon as this bag of food is finished. Thanks again my friend.

You are quite welcome! PetGuard has veggie treats, too! And the best part -- their brand does not cost any more than the leading non-vegetarian dog foods.

Dogs are carnivores and should not be eating vegetarian food. I am vegetarian too but that doesn't mean my animal should be! If you can't bring yourself to feed your dog quality meat, please rehome him/her and buy a bunny or another pet that is naturally vegetarian!

The facts are that the pet population both cats and dogs are being poisoned by commercial pet foods. If people don't stand up for better regulations and inspections including human foods - you will see the same garbage going into the food chain. The only people getting rich off of this are the Pet food company CEO"s, like the ones on Wall Street.

Here is a serious question, doc: how can you fully avoid meat by-products? Even if you feed your pets fresh beef cutlets from the supermarket, the cattle slaughtered grew up on cattle feed, which was enriched with either protein meal or tallow, both of which are meat by-products from rendering plants. Cutlets of supermarket beef can contain trace amounts of pentobarbitial (used to euthanize pets) because those cattle grew up on cattle feed enriched with by-products. You can't fully avoid them
RK831 2 years ago
It's called "Buying Organic" I am sure you must have heard of cattle that are not treated with hormones, drugs, and garbage food? It's like the way farming was 40 years ago, before people got greedy and put refuse in to dog food. Yes there is a way to avoid it its called food inspections, and its called regulations for pet food. Its called cleaning up the food chain.
12dogpal 2 years ago 3
raw food, then you can actually see what it is. Then Halo is a good one and the one that is above that CDLver seems like a good company. You can avoid them and stick with only the best foods. Organic doesn't say much as it could be diseased organic foods. Road kill is organic too. The laws are very lose. xo

That is how the mad cow disease started, you do not feed cattle - dead animals to eat, it only saves more money for the food processing companies, and pet food manufacturers are literally making a killing, but they are killing pets with diseased carcasses and dead pets from the vet's offices.
Nice, huh?

Ultimately, it is best for all pets to eat hard, crunchy food. A kitten or puppy may need a combination of canned food and dry food for a month or more as their digestive system matures but do not mix milk in with your pet's food, and do not soak any dry food in water. These are common mistakes that can really upset your pet's digestion. Again, ultimately, it is best for all pets to eat hard, crunchy food and that means dry food.

The only sure fire way is to make your own. That way you control what nutrients your dog gets, not some bottom line, profit hungry corporation. There are plenty of books on the subject with facts and good recipes. I would also definitely add a good protein, vitamin and mineral supplement such as K9-Rx to insure a solid, nutritional meal. What did dogs eat prior to corporate, mass produced dog food - for centuries? - Human Food!

The best food is Halo, Harmony Farms, Blue Buffalo and Paul Newman's. They have high quality controls and are USDA inspected so there isn't much chance of dogs, cats or roadkill getting in the food. Also they have no or low recall histories and no class actions. They have not harmful preservatives like BHT, BHA, etc. You should read Ann N. Martin's book. I hope this helps! (Halo is at petco & paul newman's and harmony farms are at target.) I found some1 named lumiesoul...she has some good vids.)

Hi MsDiamond Dogs :) Thanks so much for the information!I was extremely shocked to find what is in our pets food.I am thrilled to hear about the quality controlls and that the
food is USDA inspected.BHT and BHA is also of great concern.I didn't know Paul Newman had pet food.He was always concerned about pure
foods.I'll look for Ann :)
200991602 3 years ago
species appropriate food.....real meat like we eat....dogs can even eat meat that has spoiled, e-coli and salmonella just doesn't bother them due to their short digestive tract....the food is in and out of them, and the germs don't have a chance to do any harm, they lick their bums, remember?....
ask your friends and neighbours for any freezerburnt meat they have, it's better for them than "pet food", it's still real food to start with....dogs will eat baked roadkill, given a half chance too

Must have different regs in the US compared to the UK then, As rendered pets and contaminated meats are a totally different category to what goes into pet food. We have seperate factorys that deal with pet foods and waste products. I also still state the "Green" on the material is a food dye. Look it up in the regulations, And it's actually a blue colour before it's sprayed on.
cherry1809 3 years ago
Yes UK is far more advanced and ethical in pet food thern america. japan and cananda. Ann N. Martin states that in her book. It's illegal (as it should be) to use dogs or cats, horses tec. in pet food in the UK. I don't know how safe there preservatives are though. I do know many people who can afford it prefer to import pet food from the UK becuase it is generally higher quality. I believe it's PFMA or something that does special regulations or something. In the
US sadly pet are in pet food.

I have based thisoff of what I've observed of pet food companies.those that are questionable , tend to have class actions and recalls.I've watched the FDA and learned there's real no regulation.plus many of them actually own some of the pet food companies. I've looked at boos such as Ann N Martin's, Liz Palika's Dr. Pitcairn DVM PHD and the skeptics as well who say there is reason evidence for these concerns.I've looked at neutral parties who agree pet food needs further studying and regulation.

ThePerfectTrio 3 years ago
Why was sodium pentobarbital in the pet food then? Why are all the FDA/CVM tests inaccurate, like preforming them only after they've been cooked so r the DNA is destroyed? Rendering dogs and cats can occur on accident because all the dead things get mixed together, so it's hard to separate. Renders shouldn't even be picking up dead animals, shelters and vets should cremate them. Also please remember not all rendering have do the same things. quote lumiesoul...true

If you want good commercial dog food use Halo, Harmony Farms, Blue Buffalo, The Honest Kitchen, Paul newman's organics or Life's Abndance! They have no class actions, low or no recall history and have reliable sources for meat so dogs and cats don't get mixed in, also no cancer causing chemicals. Go to see life's abundance website for more info, or cook your dog's meals.

Not all pet food is manufactured in such a horrid and sick way. I feed mine Kumpi and Orijen, of which the manufacturing process has the highest quality standards in place. Kumpi's president did stop allowing meat meal in their recipe since they were turning away so much of it due to bad meat not meeting quality standards. But that could be for many different reasons and not because it was a cat or dog in the food.

The product in this video does not end up back in the food chain of any kind. It's easy for some bint to show a video of a rendering plant saying it's whats in pet food. It does it's job i suppose by getting peoples backs up like it has here.
cherry1809 3 years ago
Sadly is is true...Darling International one of the world's largest render's says it's happening, so are vets, dog food companies and many others. Also there are no FDA or AAFCO rules against this and plus sodium pentobarbital was found in pet food, the FDA/CVM said it could be from horses, in their first report...later they released a report saying they don't really know and the AAFCO ssaid meat meal could consist of beloved pets. look at what Diva of Graves said. I have researched this alot.
