In July of 2018, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced an investigation of grain-free, dog food diets and a common type of canine heart disease – dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). We strongly recommend you go to our local veterinary cardiology group website, www.cvcavets.com, for more information. On the website, there is an area where you can “click here for grain-free dog food guidance” for more detailed information about our current understanding of the problem and to access to additional informational websites. Unless your dog is on a prescribed diet due to medical needs, we recommend that you gradually switch your dog to a diet that contains grains. Please gradually transition your dog to the new food over a period of 3-5 days.
