At a recent meeting, representatives of the Pet Food
Alliance discussed what the group is trying to accomplish five years after the
widespread pet food recall in 2007, says a recent article from the Chicago Tribune.
Following the recall, the Alliance is working to
encourage veterinarians to discuss pet diets and pet nutrition with clients and
to set nutrition guidelines. Dr. Kate Knutson of the Alliance said the the group
is also working to educate consumers on how to properly read petfood
labels and what they mean.
For the first time, the Alliance's opening remarks and scientific sessions at
the meeting were streamed in real time on the Internet. The Allliance says it
hopes to stream more sessions online next year, and will also integrate the Blog
Paws conference of pet bloggers into the meeting.
