YT 2000 Club Member | thanks for replying.. I thought that it was, but I wasnt sure. I got a coupon offer from pedigree and thier new canned food and I read the ingredients on 2 of the varities that I checked out and both had onioion powder in it and I was actually surprised to see it. SO they are potentially harming animals with thier food..awesome... (((rolling eyes))) maybe they werent told that it was bad for dogs???

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | In the book I saw for home made dog treats onion was bad but some things did call for garlic powder. But no fresh garlic and no onions.

| I knew Pedigree was terrible food, but I can't believe they use onion powder! Onions are toxic to dogs and can cause a form of anemia: WARNING! Onions Are Toxic to Dogs |

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Yes, onion can cause Hemolytic Anemia.

| Then you have Vitakraft using cocoa powder in their "chocolate drops". I don't care if it's just a speck. Why would you intentionally give a dog chocolate??? Garlic is more of a detable topic but every dog food company should know by now that it should not be used.
