9-year-old Lily was perfectly healthy until her second dose of Bravecto. Then she started vomiting & having seizures. Vet gives it away that they "know" by asking if she is on Bravecto, then backpedals saying it's a brain tumor. She finally died of cluster seizures. RIP Lily.🌈💔

Owner purchased new bag of Purina Pro Plan and dog stopped eating it. He was vomiting, had diarrhea, and was very lethargic. Then found out he had stage 4 kidney disease. Owner took bag back to store for refund, which they did, and stated they have had so many returns lately.

This is someone else's dog, but I'm glad you saw the post. If I were you, I would stop all Purina food, wet food, kibble, anything. This has also spread to other brands because they get the materials from the same supplier. Here is the current list of brands to stay away from:

Local pet store got a call from the FDA saying that they are looking into the Purina food problem. So the store decided to pull all the Purina food off the shelves. This should be done everywhere until this gets sorted out.

If I can save one pet from dying, or from suffering from seizures caused by these horrible medications that vets keep selling, if I can stop one person from heartbreak, weeping at the loss of their best friend, tears of sadness, regret and self-blame, is why I created this page.

There are just too many stories about Purina to ignore. Other brands are having problems as well because they get the ingredients from the same supplier.

Owners bought a bag of Purina food & within 2-3 hours their perfectly healthy 12-YO dog Gracie began having seizures. Vet said could be age or a brain tumor. Now she is wobbly, can't stand & is out of it. Owner took her off food & now she's a little better. Get well soon, Gracie.

Within 24 hours of feeding puppies Diamond Puppy food, they began bleeding out with seizures. Lost four puppies, and owner got sick as well from handling the food. Food was stopped & illnesses stopped. Owner contacted the local stores & refused to pull the product. RIP 🌈🌈🌈🌈

This is latest list of pet foods to watch out for. This is based on reports received from owners whose pets are having these severe side effects. If your dog or cat is turning up his nose at food you are giving him or has any of these symptoms, listen to him & try something else.

Keanu had been fed Taste of the Wild and was doing great. Owners opened a new bag of it 2 weeks ago, he got extremely ill, then refused to eat. He went downhill and died Jan. 28th. He was not even 2 years old. Taste of the Wild is on the avoid list for now. RIP Keanu. 🌈💔😢

Owners were feeding their 3 dogs Purina One Can Tender Cuts in Gravy. They lost 1st dog Jan. 6th, the 2nd on Jan. 18th, and the third yesterday, Feb. 6th. Owner says she knows it was the food. I can't even imagine the heartbreak -- losing three at once. RIP. 🌈🌈🌈💔💔💔😢

Beautiful Great Pyrenees dog was being fed Purina Beneful. Started to get very sick and was vomiting. Vet said it was kidney failure. He just died today, 1/21/24. He wasn't even two years old. So sad. Another needless death by a pet food company that doesn't care. RIP. 🌈💔

Scottie dog got sick after owners opened a new bag of Purina Pro Plan. He was vomiting, had diarrhea and gas. Owners looked at food and it looked moldy. Don't buy Purina food. Get well soon, Scottie dog!

Vet gives dog Hills canned food to "push out a possible obstruction." 2 days later, dog starts regurgitating & doesn't stop. Back to vet, who does emergency surgery and finds nothing. Ends up hospitalized for 4 days. Finally owner takes her off the Hills food and she got better.

Brooks was being fed Purina Pro Plan & was vomiting, had diarrhea & lethargy. After 3 ER trips, taking him off & putting him back on PPP, she finally realized it was the food & will be switching it. She is mad at herself for not doing so right away. Luckily, Brooks is better. 😀

Warning, this is disgusting. These photos are from four different people who took pictures of their Purina dog food. Look closely at them and you'll see some kind of larva in there. Just horrible. One photo is from bottom of bag. Of course, these are just "internet rumors."

Top one is the food that made her pet sick.
Bottom one is the normal levels (what it should be)

For the people who think the Purina stories are just "internet rumors" and continue to feed it, I've read dozens of stories just like this one. It's not parvo, it's not old age, it's the FOOD. Somehow this food has gotten poisoned. And bugs have been found in it as well.

One of the saddest things I've seen was many years ago at the San Diego Zoo. There was a gorilla in an enclosure. He was all by himself and looked so sad. No companion. That was the last time I went to any zoo.

Perfectly healthy Cosmo took just one dose of Bravecto and developed grand mal seizures, ataxia, stumbling & falling, couldn't hold bladder. After 2 years and thousands of dollars spent, he had his last seizure and died in owner's arms. He was only 18 months old. RIP Cosmo. 🌈💔

Aussie doodle is hospitalized after taking his first dose of NexGard Plus. Now has diabetic ketoacidosis (or at least that what they vet says - probably doesn't want to admit that it's side effects of med). Only 12 weeks old. Please don't give these poisons to your pets. 😢

It is stories like this one that put Stella & Chewy food on the bad food list. This is a conversation between pet owner and Stella & Chewy vet, who lost the argument because there was nothing else that could be making Cargo sick. Get well soon, Cargo.

Five days after being given Simparica Trio, Kato began having terrible seizures. Vet was shown the dose of it and just blew it off. The seizures were so bad that Kato had to be euthanized. Owner knows it was the Simparica Trio that caused this. RIP Kato. 🌈💔😢

Why would Purina cover vet bills and send coupons for food reimbursement if there was no problem with their food? Because they know they're in trouble and are trying to prevent a lawsuit.

Another "opened up a new bag of Purina," this time Pro Plan Puppy Formula Lamb and Rice. Owner figured out early that it was the food. Gave him other food & vomiting & diarrhea stopped. When Purina was added back, vomiting & diarrhea returned, so took him off. Owner says OK now.

With all that's been going on with the food problems, we don't want to forget about the dangers of the flea, tick & heartworm meds. If your pet is on any of these, please think again about giving them & check my page for stories with adverse side effects. Or DM me for more info.

One of the very few success stories of a pet owner who was able to nurse her pups back to a full recovery after taking only one pill of Simparica Trio. One of the dogs wasn't eating and lost weight, had fever and lethargy. It took three months to detox. Not everyone is so lucky.

A half hour after having NexGard, dog started trembling, became fearful and lame in his front leg. Vet immediately dismisses the idea that it could be due to the NexGard. Dog was perfectly healthy before this. Now owners are back and forth to the vet with no real answers. 💰
