One of our three dogs died yesterday after eating nutro senior. The other two are hospitalized on IV's. There is an obvious connection. Something needs to be done immediately. Please help!

The problem is now that companies are no longer able to test products....on animals. The PETA crowd saw to that.

I thought maybe my 10 year old chihuahua died from eating Ol' Roy soft dog food. We fed it to her for the first time and the next day she was dead, with absolutely no signs of sickness before. I still have the food in case something is discovered.

We had fed our dog Nutro Natural Choice Lamb and Rice for 9 years. Three years ago we switched to Senior of the same brand and flavor. A few weeks ago the dog food had a new label that said "New and Improved Formula". Our dog became very ill with the exact same symptoms as Slinky. Thankfully we switched foods quickly and he has survived, but he may never be the same. At least he is finally eating again after one month of barely eating. I sent in my formal complaint and have not heard ONE word from Nutro in response. I will NEVER use their products again and will make sure that I spread the word about our experience!

silentbutloud, thank you for your kind words for these grieving pet parents. From the continuing comments, I now feel that it is very likely that there is a problem with this pet food!! I actually lost one of my very loved pets this morning to an accident, so I'm deeply feeling the Vasquez's loss even more so. My Tipper was very special to me, as are all my pets. Again, thank you for stepping in and for your kind words.

I am an employee where Daisy Vasquez was treated. I have never seen pet parents so determined to get their baby feeling better. They followed through on every recommendation the vet had. Anyone of you bad mouthing the parents should be ashamed of themselves. You have no idea what they went through trying to get Daisy healthy. Mr. and Mrs. Vasquez you again have my heart felt condolences regarding your babies. I never had the chance to meet Slinky but I know he was loved. I still miss Daisy she was a very sweet girl. If/when you read these comments just remember that the general public is ignorant and don't understand the extent of the medical history for either baby. You are great pet parents and you are very brave putting Slinky and Daisy's story out in the open. Thoughts and prayers

All three of my dogs were very ill after eating Greenies treats from a brand new bag. They all had to stay at the vet for 3 days on IVs. Very costly. These products are made by Nutro company. We could not find a place to test our treats, which I still have. Nutro claimed they tested the treats and they were fine. There was nothing else that could have caused my dogs illness. I requested reimbursement for the vet bills. Nutro was rude and would take NO responsibility. I WILL NEVER feed my pets anything made by Nutro again! BTW- all three were under the age of 2. Thank GOD for the vets who saved them!

Check the label. If it says "Made in China", DO NOT BUY!!

I bought a bag of Nutro Ultra from Petsmart and my dog was really sick and throwing up for days. I don't know if it was the Nutro or Petsmart either way I switched the brand of food and where I buy it.
