A nationwide class action lawsuit was recently filed in California charging Nestle Purina with breach of warranty, negligence and negligent misrepresentation (among other things).
"In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semihuman. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog." Edward Hoagland
"Thorns may hurt you, men desert you, sunlight turn to fog; but you're never friendless ever, if you have a dog."

Attorneys representing pet food consumers in this lawsuit are listed as: Jeffrey B. Cereghino of Ram, Olson, Cereghino & Kopcyzynski, by John Yanchunis of Morgan & Morgan Complex Litigation Group, by Karl Molineux of Merrill, Nomura & Molineux, and by Donna F. Solen of Kimbrell Kimbrell & Solen LLC.

That is a lot of attorneys!  Maybe there is hope that more lawsuits will be filed against pet food companies.  There certainly is plenty of reason!

This product sickens me. I wish people would read the label. Nine of the first 10 ingredients are high carbohydrate grains, starches and flours, low-bioavailable proteins, “by-products,” industrial chemicals, and sugars. The switch to propylene glycol (toxic to red blood cells) was a fairly recent one, and highlights that pet food manufacturers change formulations without consumers (who support them) being aware. Yet it is the “go to” food I think because of incredibly successful (and deceptive) advertising and packaging. Whenever we meet people walking dogs who are so obviously overweight and in poor overall health, almost invariably, it seems, the guardian will tell us they feed Beneful.
