The Pet Food Recall Got Me Into This Business
By Erv Mrotek
Owner, Wholesome Pet Supply
Back in March, 2007, my neighbor’s beautiful American Eskimo dog, Sunny, fell ill one morning and was dead by noon. He had been fine up until that fateful morning. It turned out he died of the very symptoms caused by the tainted dog food you heard about on the national news during that time period. Thousands of pets died. When my neighbor checked the web site for the list of recalled foods, the brand she had been serving her dogs was on the list. More brands are being added to this recall list daily. This is a story that got worse as time went by. Please check the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) web site yourself to make sure the brand you are feeding your pet isn’t contaminated: http://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/petfood.html
Sunny’s death really upset me as I used to play with him a lot, so I started researching wholesome pet foods. I came across a company called HealthyPetNet, a division of Trilogy International, Inc. They sell the Life’s Abundance® Premium Health Food line for dogs and cats. They also sell other pet-related products and supplements. None of their products have ever been recalled.
What impressed me about their food was the fact that only natural ingredients like chicken meal, fish meal, carrots, apples, spinach, celery, alfalfa meal, ground brown rice, antioxidants, live probiotics, and chelated minerals are used. Their products contain no chemicals or fillers, nothing artificial. In fact, all of their ingredients come from human food processing plants and their food is shipped fresh to your door. Food bought in a store can sit in non-climate-controlled storage areas for up to 18 months before it is sold, often sitting outside in trailers. To prevent it from spoiling, powerful, dangerous, chemicals are used as preservatives. With Life’s Abundance you have the food in your hands within a few short weeks of its manufacture.
So we tried Life’s Abundance® Premium Health Food for Cats, and my pals, Ben and Nipper, went wild over it! Because Life’s Abundance® is so wholesome and concentrated, with no fillers, the company recommends there be a transition period of about a week where you mix it with your old food in increasingly larger amounts. This is done so your pet’s digestive system doesn’t get upset by a sudden change in diet. When we did this, Ben and Nipper sorted out the Life’s Abundance® from the 9Lives (which, before Life’s Abundance, they ate with enthusiasm) and only ate the Life’s Abundance®. They loved it! And the best part is that Life’s Abundance® costs no more than other premium pet foods and is so much healthier.
Anyway, I was so impressed that I decided to sign up to market these wholesome products because I wanted my family and friends to be aware of how they can enhance the lives of the pets they love so much. In addition to the nutritional benefits, many pet owners who have pets with allergies or skin problems find that these problems go away, without drugs or supplements, just by switching to Life’s Abundance®.
To make a long story just a little bit longer, I set up a business called Wholesome Pet Supply so I could share this wonderful story. Please check out my web site at http://www.wholesomepetsupply.com/. Read about these fantastic products and be sure to watch the video “The Truth About Pet Foods.”
I’m sure Life’s Abundance® will greatly benefit your furry family members. All ordering can be done on-line. It’s easy, and there is a wealth of information available on this web site, too.
I highly recommend these products and encourage you to do your own research, then try them. If you like them, please pass on this information, along with my web site, to your friends. Thank you.
