I am a strong believer in civil disobedience and boycotts and all that sort of revolutionaly, liberal stuff, but, I am NOT going to change dog foods!! Actually, I would be quite surprised if it were true that Petland used such quality feed; a good CFO would put a stop to that right away and put them on Purina or something much cheaper. May I ask how you KNOW that Hunte has a contract with Royal Canin? I could understand him feeding it to his own dogs, but not the puppies at his facility. Not good business management.

I know Hunte has a contract with Royal Canin.
