Raymond just lost a puppy, he had taken him to the vet to get him fixed and get his shots, about a week later he found the poor pup dead. he thought it was the shots the vet gave him, but now that I read this it was probably the puppy chow he ate, Raymond had coupons for "the good stuff" he said and bought a huge 30# bag of it. Thank you for your recall updates Sweet Annie. I will pass this information to Raymond. xoxoxoxo
