- Tell us about yourself: I am in New York State. Got my first DS about 14 years ago (more or less as a rescue- lost her in Nov.). After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.

Lucky for me, my dogs aren't allowed to eat corn. Neither do I, for that matter. Most of the corn grown in the US (and used in almost every food) is GMO (Genetically Modified). And GMO corn kills mice, so I'm not eating it!

- Tell us about yourself: I was introduced to the Dutch Shepherd breed during my time as an Army veterinary technician working with Military Working Dogs. I fell in love with the breed and by pure chance happened to meet a DS in a local rescue who was a police K9 washout and was up for adoption. We adopted Zodiac right away and she has been an important part of our family ever since. We currently compete in Rally-Obedience and participate in Agility.

Re: New dog food problem in the making?
Dog food should not contain corn to begin with, most of the high-quality brands don't because it is just a useless filler.

Makes us raw feeders glad we feed our way, and make us shudder at the thought of how many poor dogs are eating the cheeper kibbles because folks don't know/care what's in it.
