To scare the crap out of us lol

Most dogs don't show any symptoms with DCM until it's too late - that's what's scary about this. I do think some of these companies are getting too much protein from plants and not enough from meat....

It also seems to me that most of the dogs affected are goldens. Yes there are some others, but mostly goldens. I wonder if there is something genetic there. I really hope they don't take forever...

I think the thought is the legumes and potatoes are somehow blocking taurine absorption. If that is the case adding taurine to the diet won't help.

I sure hope it doesn't take a few years to figure it out. Niner did so well on Authority fish and potato. He's back on Proplan but his poop is soft��

That's exactly what members of the group I'm a member of claim - adding more taurine will not fix the problem as the suspect ingredients can be blocking the absorption of taurine.

My thoughts exactly. I don't agree with the wait and see what the FDA comes up with. That could take forever.

i believe I am a member of that same group you mention. It's no joke folks - get your dog off of grain free. That said I believe (just my personal thoughts) it's all the legumes (peas, chickpeas,...
