Pet Food Industry & natural pet food.

There have recently been a couple of people indicted for the Chinese ingredient in pet food that killed thousands of our beloved pets. The fight is not over. First we must find natural, organic, holistic, or vegetarian pet food to feed our pets. Some companies in the pet food industry have developed foods in these categories and they are very safe and healthy. Next, we need to educate ourselves on pet food and what is in it. Lastly, we need to continue to fight for regulations that make testing of ingredients more prevalent, etc. Another ingredient to look up is vitamin K3 which is still approved for pet foods and is an artificial ingredient. Dogs and cats create vitamin K in their intestines. It does not have to be included in pet food, especially the K3. Long term use causes health problems that can be serious. I am looking into this and would like any information that you have. Also, I'm fighting back by starting a website to sell natural pet food. www.everythingnaturalpetfood.com I am interested on your thoughts and what you would like to share on the pet food industry.
