About Eddie: I'm a dog on a mission. With your help, I'm going to change legislation in the U.S. to make sure chemicals are safe before they're put on the market. Read more or contact Eddie.

On Tuesday May 13th, the FDA is holding a hearing on pet food standards -- and yours truly will be there, taking lots of video and liveblogging the event for all of you to follow!
I'll also be making a, ah... special delivery, of sorts. We want to send a message to FDA that we're sick of the crap in our pet food. But what's the best way to get the message across?
How about in biodegradable poo bags?!
That's right: we're taking the poop-scoop to the FDA. It was our friends at Truth about Pet Food who came up with this brilliant idea, and the poo bags were donated by PoopBags.com.
Want in on the action? Got something to say to the FDA? Send us your message along with a $5 donation, and we'll deliver your message on Tuesday in a poo bag (sans poo, of course) along with many, many others.
We want to tell FDA that their current pet food safety regulations stink!
You've only got until noon on Monday to send us your message, so don't wait. And spread the word -- the more poop bags we deliver, the better!

I don't have $5 so I'll post my concern here. Why are there so many pet treats containing polypropylene glycol all of a sudden? This is listed as a toxic substance and banned by other countries but they're using it in pet food products without batting an eyelash. Take THAT to the FDA....
why bother barking up this tree. as I don't trust processed people food either, I just make my own dog food. we're all happy healthy vegans in this home and its not a lot of work or money. there's even cookbooks for dogs with nutritional guidelines. its great because I know my babies are eating right!
