Ethoxyquin

Ethoxyquin, the word alone should send red flags flying. It was years ago when I first heard about it; and at that point the buzz had just begun. At the time I was feeding the ever popular Eukanuba by Iams. The new wonder food for dogs; anyone who wanted the best for their dog fed this and it remained this way for years.

Science Diet was and is the same for some. Many veterinarian offices carry a huge array of the highly specialized Science Diet formulas for our dogs. Well with all the hype of ethoxyquin, out came hordes of new dog food. What is a guardian to do? It is truly mind boggling. The easy solution is to feed your dog food that you buy, real food.

But please do yourself a favor and do some reading on the subject. Below are some great links I found on ethoxyquin.
