This site is highly manipulated. When you say something against their favorite companies for instance Nature Logic or orijin then you find your posts eater officially deleted or magically disappeared a few days later. Only the groupies' posts will remain.When you say something about their high protein diets who are proven wrong then they will bully,flag,block and delete you in order to promote their subversive agenda.They misrepresented the studies.and then when you point out the dangers their own studies have shown they will delete your posts making up stories why and only their one-sided information remains and you won't know both sides receiving flawed and biased information as a result of this.

I work as a nurse and also have a diploma in veterinary assistant, that is 20 years old, and have been very concerned about their false claims, their conduct and their misrepresentation of facts, so do all the veterinarians I know. They are so many dogs who got sick listening to Hounddog or Shawna recommending too much protein or a raw diet. If the posts are still there, look at the Orijen or Primal thread.

They misconstrue textbooks for instance claiming the textbooks state you can give 40 or 50% protein to a senior dog while they say 28% max. then they use studies sponsored by pharmaceutical companies or purina to falsely substantiate their claims.When you point out the flaws then your posts will disappear. Shawna will misrepresent pretty much about anything to promote her 50% protein diet. For instance falsely claiming her dog is not on medication or those dogs would not live very long while it would not be unusual if the dog is still alive. Then she keeps contradicting herself how much protein she feeds depending on the arguments, check out the web under scam about more information about this site.

100s of people have been bullied and unfairly blocked on here not doing anything wrong and being the victims of bullying. Vets get regularly blocked and their posts conveniently deleted. Of course the groupies can do whatever they want and their posts remain as long as they back up Mike the owner/editor. End result is you have indeed very biased information. Mike the owner/dentist is not an expert yet him among the groupies without any credentials make so many false claims but think they know it all.

Please don't buy into their high protein diet is all not necessarily superior, also don't believe their
exaggerated claims on lentils,gluten, peas, tomatoes, potatoes, raw food etc.

Buyer Beware! Go to other sites in order to get information about dog food. Get the information you need from a vet and perhaps a second opinion, then research for yourself but please do not listen to these self-proclaimed experts, they don't have the credentials they simply read the information online and for the most part, have fed purina until two years ago. Now they pretend they know all about holistic foods. The same with the editor Mike. He has fed his dog Iams and other crappy foods that killed his dog. Now he got smarter but this doesn't make him an expert.

From a dog lover feeding my dogs holistic brands their entire life. Having REAL credentials in the field. Please don't listen to these crucks.

It becomes noticeable that there is a war going on between the 'regulars' and most other men and women; people they disagree with them. It also becomes noticeable that the 'regulars' are allowed to violate the web site's rules and act racist while other people get banned permanently without any good reasons. The name-calling by the 'regulars' include 'ignorant person', 'misguided hippie' (which is racism), 'spoiled brat-dog should get a new home', just to name a few from yesterday and today. Then Mike defends the 'regulars' and claims others would be the 'cyber stalkers', 'fraudulent posters with intend to deceive', or 'people with fake or deceptive identities' etc. using very strong words legally questionable while Pattyvaugh among Hounddog, Shawna, Betsy Greer, LabsRaw, Iosol and a couple of followers are doing exactly that and it is noticeable on every thread.

There is no doubt in my mind to conclude that these strong words by the editor are inaccurate and a simple defense mechanisn destracting of his own unlawful conduct. It becomes easily understood that all he does is defending his groupies and exaggerate other people's conduct. I conclude without a doubt that eater he intentionally misrepresents and act fraudulently or it is possible that people do post with an alternative identity, not 'a fraudulent identity with intend to deceive' simply because they have been banned from the site and tried to speak their mind. This is completely different having an alternative ID is not illegal.

The past seven days I have witnessed the editor to eliminate at least eight posts that were permitted but questioned the editor's diet choices. I have followed the site for a while and hope someone will file a lawsuit against them for all the bullying and mistreatment so many innocent people have received. Also his information he provides states in violation with the FTC. He constructs many false claims and a disclaimer won't protect him.

Please don't buy into their high protein diet is all not necessarily superior, also don't believe their exaggerated claims on lentils,gluten, peas, tomatoes, potatoes, raw food etc.

Posted someting on Halo Vegetarian Dog food today and after 15 minutes they deleted my post while falsely claiming my name would be fraudulent. I wanted to defend myself but they also blocked my discuss acount. Unbelievable, this is the first time I posted on there. They obviously don't want people to know about vegetarian dog foods. This site is fraudulent. They obviously have no evidence. I have never met or know those people they accuse me to know. They must be working for the meat companies.
