Soy added to "our" food system (and the dogs) is a cheap source of protein  
and very different from the fermented soy products famous in the pacific 
rim  countries w/ all of their health benefits.  I avoid it in human and dog  
food.
 
That said, I realize that the beef and chicken in the dog's food has been  
fed....soy.  (And corn, so even if your dog food doesn't specifically list  
corn and/or even if you feed raw, your dogs eat corn.)
 
You really have to be diligent to avoid in it our food BTW...it's not  
always listed as "soy".  People see "soy" and thing tofu and make a "good  for 
you connection".  Not always so.  That explains why certain  cancers are 
lower in pacific rim counties, then "we" added a bunch of soy to  things and 
see 
statistically very different outcomes....
 
Does it increase the incidence of bloat?  Who knows.  Put me in  the camp 
that says there is certainly a genetic component w/ occasional  environmental 
"triggers".  So, until science gives us concrete  answers, I scrutinize 
pedigrees and do my damndest to control their  environment...and pray.

Sorry,  another dog food question...some say there is a connection between 
feeding dog  food with soy and bloat...others say their is not. Is soy flour 
or soybean  meal the same as soy and would you avoid this in your food?
