Think about years ago and the life span of dogs. Dogs lived longer. I remember  dogs living to 18-20+. Now, you hear about so much cancer, liver, kidney and digestive issues that we never heard about years ago mainly because the commercial dog food companies began to put profit over quality and safety.

The first dog food was…

Hi All -
