This book is a sobering read - fact! For any pet owner who wants a behind the scenes look at what goes into (some) pet foods then this is a must read. Entis has written a clear and detailed account of the shortcomings and investigations into some of the unscrupulous practices that some pet food manufacturers have adopted. Her research and methodology into collecting and compiling over 100 years worth of recall and investigation data (yes that’s right over 100 years) is commendable. What is staggering is the sheer disregard by some manufacturers to follow basic good manufacturing principles with quite a few of the ‘big brands� being repeat offenders. From finding illegal antibiotics to C-Diff to melamine - yes I did say melamine in batches of pet food what becomes clear is that laws need to be tightened and those in positions of authority within these pet food companies need to be held to account in a more meaningful and substantial way. This book offers a balanced and insightful view of manufactured pet food recalls over the last 100 years. As a pet owner I for one shall be following Entis� own example and moving to a home diet for my dog from now on.
