Warning:  This is a difficult video to watch if you had a pet that suffered or died from the 2007 melamine recall.

I did not lose a pet from this recall, but the video was still heartbreaking for me to watch; too many memories.  I’m puzzled at why now?…why more than three years later did the FDA produce this video?

 

Wishing you and your pet(s) the best,
