Last summer I was taking care of my sister's dog and wanted to learn more about feeding her. I still watch her dog when she is out of town and continue to be interested in feeding her a good food. if it's your sister's dog, why would you worry about what to feed her? Feed the dog whatever dog food your sister uses so the dog doesn't get stomach problems from having its food rapidly changed. |

I have cats but my sister has dogs and she had the same experience. What does your sister use now? Dog in question is on Science Diet Puppy right now. That is not agreeing with her stomach occasionally and she has some skin flaking. My dog (her brother) is on Science Diet Puppy also. He has a nice coat and soft skin and no stomach problems. jw Hi John, I believe my sister has fed her dog California Natural, Innova and Wysong. I'll ask her which one she's using now. Here's their websites: http://www.naturapet.com/display.php?d=home-tab http://www.wysong.net/ |

I'll bring everyone up to speed.....you once claimed that Science Diet "killed" your cats. Are you kidding me? Killed my cats? You are out of your mind, LOL, but nothing new. Lauren, are you on any form of medication? This is exactly what you alleged about 2 or 3 years ago. Are you finally disavowing your previous story? Now, you say it created problems for your "pets"? Am I to infer that you mean you fed your dogs Science Diet in the past? If so, you've never mentioned it until now. Hmmm? You well know that I don't have a dog. That's what you've said before. Yet it seems that you are trolling this ng, taking any opportunity to bash Hill's. Your problem with me is that I informed people how poorly my cats (not my present cats, which you know, btw) did when I fed them Science Diet food. No, my problem with you is that you take any opportunity to bash Hill's. When called on the carpet for it, you then play the victim. You claim that you want "unbiased" information, yet you don't have any problem providing links and pointing others in the direction of your own biases. I don't know, maybe it was the high corn content, or some other ingredient, but their coats were very dry and they were vomitting from it. As I stated before, my sister was feeding Hill's Science Diet to her dog and she did poorly on it too. It seems that whenever anyone tells the truth about Science Diet, the company you work for, they are bashed and called a liar. And what truth would that be? You sound like a conspiracy theorist. You've been called a liar only after inconsistencies in your "stories" have been pointed out. Phil P did a nice job doing just that a couple of years ago. Nobody bashes you for your "experience", it's mostly for your rhetoric and your hypocrisy. You like to ignore the anecdotal experiences of those whose pets thrive on Hill's products. |

diddy wrote: Perhaps you should take your cats to the vet, and your problems were something other than the feed you were feeding? I did take my cats to the vet, and unforunately, he advised me that it was the food that was causing the problems. He recommended I switch to another brand, and my cats improved and became healthy again. As you produce your individual testimony, you seem to ignore those having fantastic positive results on the diet. I also have a dog here that was on a commercial raw diet. The breeder was so adamant about the diet that she had it shipped to ohio from California to keep this dog on it's diet. After two misses on getting her pregnant, I said I would do this breeding again ONLY if she changed the diet. This was the only change we made. I put the dog on Science Diet and she got pregnant. Positive results, right? Every diet will have diffferent results on different animals. I don't deny your dogs are doing fine on Science Diet. But my pets did not, as well as many other people I've come across. It's one of those YMMV situations. I have a friend who thought their dog was doing great on a particular food. Then she switched to another brand and couldn't believe the improvement. But I get sick of people making testimony as law, when others have a very positive experience from Science Diet. I don't think anyone is saying his/her testimony is law. I think people who have good, and bad, experiences with a particular petfood shouldn't be afraid to speak up. |

You're the one who needs medication. I never claimed Science Diet killed my cats. You're deranged!!!!! Please show me where I ever said such an outrageous thing. As usual, you appear to be stalking me again. Seems you got chased out of the cat newsgroup for your trollish behavior. I see it's still going on over here. Is there any wonder why I don't care for Hill's? It's employees like you who give the company a bad name. |

One day Hills is going to start putting as much effort into improving their food as they do into attacking anybody who complains about their food, and then they'll have something that the non-gullible might consider giving to their pets. Well, since you've never fed Science Diet, you don't really have an valid opinion to offer. As for attacks, the only attacks are the ones launched by you and Lauren and a few others on Hill's; even when no one was talking to you in the first place. |

You're the one who needs medication. I never claimed Science Diet killed my cats. Ooh boy. I ought to do a search sometime and prove you wrong. Or perhaps I'll just let Phil P do it since he's pretty good at that sort of thing. Perhaps someone was masquerading as you? shrug As usual, you appear to be stalking me again. LOL! Here you go with the "victim" thing again! Seems you got chased out of the cat newsgroup for your trollish behavior. I see it's still going on over here. Uh no. However, you coming into a dog ng when you don't own dogs and then immediately putting words into Steve Crane's mouth and then attacking him for something he didn't say would certainly fit the behavior of a troll = you! Is there any wonder why I don't care for Hill's? It's employees like you who give the company a bad name. Get over it, Lauren. You fed Science Diet to your cats, you weren't satisfied with the result, you switched your method of feeding, BAM, done deal. What's your beef? Why must you insist on constantly bashing Hill's many years later? Why do you follow Steve Crane around and nip at his heels? What did he or Hill's ever do to you? Talk about a woman, scorned!? |
