Subject: Nutro dog food

I recently purchases a 40# bag of Nutro dog food(silver bag w/glucosomine&chondroitin)from petco. Was out and needed food now so got it there. I have an 85# boxer-springer mix. 10 yrs. old. Read the bag and felt reasonably ok about this dog food.I usually get all my animal foods at Fleet Farm and knew they had that kind if I should continue to use it later. Since my dog is 10 I do expect his time is limited Therefore I was not surprised to have him show some signs of congestive heart failure. Lots of coughing and heavy breathing during the hot weather we were having. His condition deteriorated w/lethargy-loose stools. He smelled bad. Just generaly bad condition everyone comented on. The bell still hadn't gone off in my head. My son spent several days w/us w/his dog who ate the food. I now know why that dog was vomiting and letting loose stools. My neighbors dog spends alot of time here and has access to our food also. They called me about thier dog vomiting and having diaheria after spending time here. The pile of vomit from there was clearly the food she had eaten at my home. I then went on line looking for this dog food and was shocked to see all the postings. This food was just purchased end of june-first of july 2009. I'm seeing postings back to 2007. What is going on? This clearly needs to be stopped. Why did I not hear about this till I started digging? I still have some of the food. They want me to return it to Petco for a refund. I did not save the bag. By the sound of things they are still selling the stuff.Is anything being done? Any suggestions. My dog appears to be recovered now that he is not eating this dog food. R.Nygaard
