I think we've only just seen the tip of the iceberg on this

we put our little schipperke down in July after a month's sudden unexplained illness - she had never been sick one day in her 15 year life and the breed is known to be the longest living of all dog breeds - usually living to a healthy 18-19 years - her diet was consistant of Iams and Mighty Dog throughout her entire life

since she was cremated after death, there is no way to test her at this point in time -

makes you wonder how long these problems have been out there and undetected

next time, the diet will be limited to home made food....
