Flint River Ranch Super Premium Dog and Cat Foods

Naturally, every pet food manufacturer will tell you that their food is best, and they use quality ingredients. As breeders we know that changing your pet's diet is not a trivial decision. After doing some research of our own, we decided to switch from Nature's Recipe to

Flint River Ranch Super Premium Health Food for Dogs.

We had used Nature's Recipe for approximately 6 years. We started using it because it was one of the few foods available at the time that advertised itself as Ethoxyquin-free.

For those of you who may not know, Ethoxyquin is a substance made by the Monsanto Corporation that is used to preserve meat. It appears in the ingredient list for Iams and Eukanuba dog foods. This substance is listed as a hazardous material by OSHA (Occupational Health and Safety Administration) and by law must be shipped in containers marked POISON. It is against the law to include Ethoxyquin in meat destined for consumption by humans. Yet it is perfectly legal to use this substance as a pet food preservative.

Why did we switch to Flint River? Why should you consider trying Flint River? Any food from a reputable manufacturer will most likely satisfy your pet's basic nutritional requirements. But consider the following facts about Flint River Ranch that to my knowledge cannot be matched by any other pet food.

For these reasons, we believe that Flint River is the best dog and cat food available. Certainly we are trying to establish a business, but we would not enter into a business relationship with the company unless we were convinced that there is no better food. All of our dogs are fed Flint River Ranch exclusively.

If anyone has information that contradicts the information presented here, I will gladly print it here as long as you provide the source of your information. My facts were obtained from Pet Food Industry Magazine, and a book called the Dry Dog Food reference.

Call, send some snail-mail or email us if you are interested in a free sample serving, would like information about the business opportunity, or if you think we are completely full of baloney, all comments and questions are welcome.
