It is a shame this happened, the trust with the Diamond Co. is gone and now I > will always worry about what I'm feeding my dogs....I think it could happen > to any dog food company. Vicki, Yes, It can happen to any food company-dog or human. Just look at what happened to our local Chi-Chi's awhile back. People lost family members due to germs found in the onions! Diamond will probably have to overdo their safety issues in order to win back consumer's trust. I remember years ago there were dogs dying from eating DAD'S dog food. (local PA company.) I guess the train transporting the food had a poisonous gas get into the bags-some kind of train fuel fumes or whatever. I was feeding it at the time. We never know what will happen. Again, we should be aware of how our dogs act and watch for any signs of illness and be aware that it could be the food. Anytime, anywhere. I'm glad your dogs are o.k Bonnie ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
