1. I genuinely respect your training. But A) how many of those 300 hours were specific to CANINE nutrition

2. and B) how many hours in the aggregate do you estimate that Drs. Foster and Smith and their staff of a half dozen or more vets from many of the best vet schools on earth, have taken in their DVM studies INCLUDING elective courses AND required "continuing education" studies? A "bunch" is my estimate.

3. The product you give your dog is labeled as "pharmaceutical grade" which is GREAT but at a cost of nearly quadruple the price of the F&S product

4. GOOD LUCK on your hunting trip!


Best,

1. Many -- Many of the studies are "comparative nutrition"  (like comparative anatomy) that's why most studies are done on animals. Only if there is a difference are the studies actually done on humans.  The original studies on glucosamine were done on horses -- only later were studies done on dogs and humans -- and the results were extremely similar.

2. I don't know, nor do they say on their website --- but  I'd still like to know why Drs F&S use artificial colors and artificial flavors. I've never heard of
animals getting sick from a deficiency in either one. I wonder where they learned this ?

3. Quadruple ? ? ? 8 oz liquid of mine costs $72 --------- Is 8 oz of F&S only $16 ? ? ?

4. We had a fun weekend. If I have time, I'll put up a short story and a pic later.
