Subject: Nutro Lamb & Rice Small Bites

We have been crazy with worry since May,08. Our 2 mini dachshounds have been eating Nutro Lamb & Rice Small Bites for years now so we didn't suspect the food. They generally have cast iron stomachs and have not had issues with food. They both developed colitis and vomiting, somewhat incresed thirst, shaking, lethargy, weight loss, loss of appetite. They are small dogs so a few pounds is a lot of their body weight. We took them in almost every other day for rehydration injections. They became so weak they could not walk up a small step. We have spent quite a bit at the Vets and had tests and x-rays done with not definitive results. We did change their diet and had them on meds. They got better. The vet concluded that it must be a GI virus and it ran it's course. We started the dry food up again a week ago (along with wet food) and one has developed a dry retching and eating a lot of grass. I went online to do some researh and found the Consmer site and this one. I immediately threw out all of the Nutro products and purchased some Wellness brand. I hope this resolves the problems and my dogs stay well. I would like Nurto to acknowledge a problem and not sacrafice our animals. I told my local pet food store, who coincidentialy is dropping the Nutro line and informed my vet. Thanks for your grass roots forum.
