I guess the demand for antifreeze just went up..............
I’m suspicious of people who don't like dogs, but I trust a dog who doesn't like a person.

Each of my field trial /hunting retrievers have been fed Purina Pro Plan Performance, and nothing but. No complaints here.

LOL speak of the devil, another overdose of antifreeze:
“Over time, she kept getting sicker and sicker and finally wouldn’t eat,” Burgardt said. “I thought she was going to die.” It was soon after taking Skye to her veterinarian and having tests that according to Burgardt, show traces of antifreeze in the dog’s system. And so Burgardt joined a lawsuit against Purina PetCare. Her dog, she says, “is alive but not well. It’s been very upsetting. I know it was all because of Beneful.”

Same old same old....anther person trying to jump on the band wagon...
This one is ever dumber than the rest...they had to amend their lawsuit because they had no idea what they were taking about, so they changed their minds and made it worse..
Beneful products contain a colorless liquid chemical called propylene glycol that is used as a preservative and to
keep foods moist; the lawsuit filed in February contends this ingredient is one of the main reasons that plaintiffs’ pets became ill or died, though that ingredient was no longer listed in the amended complaint.
The amended complaint, instead of listing propylene glycol as a food ingredient, says Purina failed to disclose that Beneful contains Industrial Grade Glycols (IGG), a a more dangerous chemical. Purina flatly denied using that ingredient in products.
“We don’t have IGG’s in our products,” said Purina’s Vlieks.
Sensation headlines though Rick......probably didn't know their truck has a leaky rad in the garage and fido was licking it up every day...

Perhaps Mike, but don't feed it to your cat..lol At least it's "generally" safe for your dog..lol
Dr. Bruce Levitzke, director of the Veterinary Emergency and Referral Group in Brooklyn, New York said propylene glycol is generally safe for use in dog food and human foods. But it’s not good for cats, which can’t metabolize it.
“Even in small amounts, propylene glycol can cause destruction of red blood cells in cats,” explained Levitzke, who said he had no professional relationship with Purina or any other pet food maker.

It truly is amazing how stupid some people are in their attempt to make a connection. Mike , you're correct, try looking on the drive way or shed.
Perhaps some folks should shoulder some personal responsibility instead of making outlandish claims......
