mouseatthebusstop Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 I did the test on Paddy he is 16.5 years 7 years less than the adverage dog of his breed :lol: Quote
TDG Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 that site is garbage. :( it's totally slanted towards poor quality commercial food, outdated vaccination schedules and so on. i don't appreciate hearing that my dog's health is at risk because i don't get him vaccinated willy-nilly every year and because i don't use a harsh pesticide for heartworm prevention, even tho i live in an area where it is not needed and i do test for heartworm twice a year. i also don't appreciate being told that by feeding a home prepared diet, i'm putting my dog at risk. there are also no real quality foods listed where it asks " What kind of DRY dog food do you buy REGULARLY?". raw bones are not listed under "What does __ chew on between meals?", the whole page is slanted towards commercial garbage. the site does a great job of perpetuating a lot of facts about dog care that are outdated or were never true to begin with. but that's pretty obvious since it has purina ads plastered allover. :( Quote
sarahmyjoy Posted July 11, 2004 Author Posted July 11, 2004 Im sorry you are so upset about that page TDG I just thought that it was a fun thing to pass some time, not something to "take to heart" and be upset by. I like to do silly things like that just to see what they say. I dont belive what they say just cause they say it. I know that im doing a good job with my girls I dont need them to tell me that. I have read enough of your posts too. You know what you are doing and that your pets are healthy and very happy. Sorry again Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 Cody is 11.3 years old and he is 4.5 years younger then dogs his breed ;) Quote
TDG Posted July 11, 2004 Posted July 11, 2004 sarahmyjoy, don't apologize, it's okay. :) and it's not your personal fault either, i did not want to give that impression. it's just a topic i feel very strongly about and i spend a lot of my time and resources trying to help people by teaching them about better ways to care for their pets, and to teach them in how many way the pet industry is suckering in people on a daily basis by providing false information just to make more profit. i hope i don't sound like someone who is all caught up in conspiracy theories, but i have learned a lot about these things in the past 4 years and am forever grateful to my mentors for putting me on the right track. hopefully i'll be able to do that for others as well.

sarahmyjoy Posted July 11, 2004 Author Posted July 11, 2004 Its ok :fadein: I know that you do feel strongly about it and anything concerning your pets and you are more than happy to pass on what you have learned, like i said i have read alot of your posts :D and they are very informative Quote
