GMO'S and your Pet.

The giant agriculture, chemical, and drug companies..
.. have a lot to gain financially from GMOs (genetically modified organisms) which is why they spend so much money researching and promoting them. And perhaps genetically engineered food has some great potential benefits for feeding people. But time is clearly not yet on the side of the GMO argument. Hundreds of millions of years of natural evolution vs. a few years of splicing and dicing? Even UK Prime Minister Tony Blair voiced concern about the potential of GMOs, saying, "The key word here is potential, both in terms of harm and benefit."

The potential for good highlights..
.. why we were right not to slam the door on GM food or crops without further research. The potential for harm shows why we are right to proceed very cautiously and check to make sure that our natural dog treats are also GMO-free. And this is exactly what we are doing. Many products are genetically modified and in widespread use all over the world. Soybeans are one of the leading crops of genetically engineered foods and soy protein is used in thousands of different products. Usually, plants are modified to be more resistant to pests by increasing the amount of “naturally occurring” anti-pest chemicals in the plant. Also, plants are modified so that they will be more tolerant to herbicides and pesticides. These “Round-Up Ready” plants allow more toxic chemical spraying and these chemicals may eventually find their way onto your table -- not to mention into waterways, lakes, oceans, etc. These same "Round Up Ready" plants also need less spraying with herbicides and pesticides, so that is a gain. Swings and roundabouts.

This genetic experiment could have untold..
..environmental, economic and social ramifications for which there are no tests except the test of time. We don't know for a fact that genetically-modified ingredients will cause dog health problems. But we also don't know for a fact that they won't.

In the meantime, why worry? Just seek out GMO-free pet foods .. Our slogan, “It's a Health Thing ,” says it all. Whenever possible -- make sure your natural dog food is also GMO-free.
