  Dear Dog Enthusiast:
  You recently contacted us regarding our affiliation with the HSUS.
  We'd
  like
  to thank you for taking the time to express your concern as well as
  update
  you on a recent decision made by our organization.
  The Iams Company will not be funding the Petfest America events with
  HSUS
  again next year. We appreciate all of the direct feedback we have
  received
  from the dog community and apologize for the frustration that this
  sponsorship has caused. We have a lot of exciting innovations planned
  next
  year, which will require our focused time and resources.
  As a leader in the pet industry, The Iams Company is about educating
  all pet
  owners on pet health care and nutrition - from the family pet to the
  active
  competitor. We are definitely pro-dog and clearly not anti-hunting. We
  look
  forward to continuing our long history of support of the sporting dog
  community and leadership in the industry with innovative research to
  improve
  the health and well-being of athletic dogs. We hope that we can put
  this
  behind us and focus on the future -- great performing foods for great
  performing dogs.
