Thank you to Dr. Jeff, Dr. Christina and Dr. Hofve for tonights EA! As Dr. Hofve and Dr. Jeff mentioned, most of the major pet food brands involved in the DCM/taurine issue have been named. However, as Dr. Jeff also pointed out, dogs are being diagnosed with cardiac problems on raw diets as well. I thought that it was interesting that that the microbiota may be playing a role in the absorption and utilization of taurine and other nutrients. I can't help but think that the overuse of antibiotics is a large factor here!
Obviously "it depends", and as Dr. Jeff said, "Bottom line really is based on the health of the individual."
