Ol Roy Pet Foods

I switched from Beggin Strips to Old Roy bacon strips. Within weeks, my Shih Tzu started vomiting and died. My Cocker Spaniel died 20 days later. She too began by vomiting. She had a vet appointment later in the day and died before I could get her to the vet. I don't know for certain that the Old Roy strips caused the death, but that was the only change in their diet and lives in many years. We miss them severely.

I bought a 40 lb. bag of Kibbles Chunks and Chews from Wal-Mart in April. I fed it to my 112 lb. Rottweiler. He seemed to be okay at first, then he started with serious diarrhea and a few days later, he seemed lethargic, started vomiting a clear phlegm, wouldn't eat anything, not even steak. We took him to the vet but he seemed to be getting better, then started vomiting again. I changed his dog food to Pedigree and gave the remainder of the bag to my sister-in-law for her dogs. I received a call tonight telling me that both of her dogs were vomiting. Please do not feed your dog Ol Roy dog food. After reading these reviews, my heart sank. I would be heartbroken and very angry if I lost my dog. I will never feed this to my dog again!

I had just brought home a 20 pound bag of Ol Roy dog food for my 2 dogs and left for work. The next morning, my husband said when he went to feed them, he put the cup in and when he brought it out. It was full of ants. He found table scraps to feed them that night. Upon further inspection of the bag, we discovered that the entire bag was ant-infested and no, I do not have an ant problem in my house. This was a new sealed bag.

I bought Ol' Roy from Wal-Mart in Jacksonville, NC. My 2 dogs ate it and I had to take one to the emergency vet because he was throwing up and had severe diarrhea and could not walk. Now, my other one is doing the same thing. They need to step up to the plate and take it off the shelves before more dogs are harmed by this bad food. These dogs are my family, not just pets.

I made a mistake of buying an Ol' Roy dry dog food (with gravy mix). When I fed it to my German shepherds, I noticed they started to get sick and vomiting a lot. I woke up with both my dogs dead before I could get them to the vet's office! How can Ol' Roy not care!

I bought a 50-pound bag of Ol' Roy High Performance dog food on April 16, 2012 and fed all six of my dogs their weight appropriate amount of dog food that night. I had just finish off a bag of Ol' Roy and so was feeding a small amount of the previous bag with the new bag of Ol' Roy. The next morning my 9-month-old Carolina dog mix had explosive diarrhea in his crate. Once let out into the yard, he vomited and had watery diarrhea shoot out of his butt. I cleaned him and his crate up and let the other dogs out and watched them eliminate. All had solid excrement, but it was tinged with a small amount of bright red blood. Since I had to work that day, I left my 9-month-old pup out in the yard all day thinking it was just something he had eaten and it would pass.

Later that evening, I walked the yard and saw he had spent the day vomiting and having explosive watery diarrhea. When I checked him, he had lost a lot of body condition in the 8 hours I was gone and he had irritated sclera (red in the whites of the eyes). So I knew he was stressing. When I let the other dogs out, two of the smaller dogs promptly vomited clear fluid. Not stomach bile. I went online and found others had complained about their dogs getting sick on Ol' Roy, but no recall had been issued and no investigation was being conducted. I returned the food to the store and asked that a complaint be made to the maker of Ol' Roy and was told the store does not do that. I decided to make a complaint here and I will be calling the number for Wal-Mart in the morning. I hope this can be resolved so nobody else's dogs get sick and that mine get better quickly.

A friend made the mistake and bought the wrong dog food. She bought Ol' Roy dry food. I noticed both of my dogs were both vomiting. I could not get them to drink water or eat their regular dog food. I am watching them now to see if I can make my pets better. This stuff needs to be stopped. Our pets are important to us! How dare you not make this right with these families? Better yet, how can you make it right? The poor animals are suffering!

I just got a female English bulldog about 2 weeks ago. I had got her from a friend who found her. She is an older dog, but I wanted to breed her with my 2-year old male bulldog. After a week, she started gasping and vomiting; then my male started. The only thing that has changed was the food that has recently been bought: Ol' Roy dry dog food! I have tears from watching them suffer. It's killing me—and the vet isn't open. I really hope this business gets shut down due to their lack of humanity that they are making pets endure! Shame on you!

I have a very healthy 8-year old German Short-haired Pointer. She spent many years in the Arizona desert and though she has always had an unending bowl of food, she ate some really horrible things she found while exploring the desert. You all know how dogs are, if it smells horrible, they want to sniff it, eat it, roll in it. She indulged too frequently, so my dog can handle some bad stuff. So I was visiting my parents who had just bought a new bag of dog food (Ol Roy). They have two dogs and during my visit, one of their dogs became very sick. They figured their 11-year old Weimaraner was reacting to an allergy from the food, though this was unusual. They decided not to feed the new food to their dogs and were going to throw it away. l, being a broke college student living on a budget, requested that I take the food for my dog. They were apprehensive, as they thought there might be something wrong with the food. I insisted, reminding them that my dog had encountered much worse things and they agreed and gave me the food (instead of throwing away 50lbs of food).

I began to feed my dog the food when I returned home. At first, everything seemed fine and I had no apprehension to begin with, so it was no surprise to me. However, after about a week on the new food, my dog (Cocoa) began to act sick. Surprisingly, each day she ate all her food, but she began puking a few times a day. For the first day or two, I didn't respond, but when the condition persisted, I became worried. I still didn't think it was the food, I didn't think that store-bought food could rival some of the unhealthy things I'd seen her otherwise consume. After about four days of progressive puking, I was becoming very concerned and changed her food. Her condition deteriorated. Around day 6 of puking, I recognized blood in her puke. Clearly red, undigested blood! This told me that her stomach was bleeding.

I immediately put her on a holistic, home-cooked diet. I was so concerned about her condition that I was fearing for her life, she was puking every few hours and there was fresh blood in it every time. She became so sick. After a few days on my home-cooked, healthy, light-diet, Cocoa began to recover. I know that it was the food that hurt her! It scares me that food bought at the local grocery nearly killed my dog. I can only assume that if I'd continued to feed her that food, she would have gotten worse and she didn't have much left anyhow. Scary! I love my dog like a child and I'm so glad I was able to figure out what was hurting her, but worried about the cause. I have saved the food and intend to have it tested. I will be contacting Ol Roy today.

Ol Roy Healthy Mix Weight Management is a killer! My Olde English Bulldogge had massive diarrhea from this dog food! It's a good thing that I keep a very close eye on my dogs or he would have died from dehydration! This is not only a $1500 dog but he is my buddy and part of my family! This dog food should be recalled and Ol Roy needs to be shut down! They are terrible!

I bought a bag of Complete Nutrition (44.1 lb.) dry dog food. 2 of the 3 dogs I have kept throwing up. When I got to the last 1/3 of the bag, I found mold all over it. I could not feed my dog after work last night and I am out 1/3 bag of food.

I bought my dog Ol' Roy Tiny Special T's on March 1st 2012. I would give her a couple every so often. I didn't think anything of it till we started tying everything together. She is normally a hyperactive 2-year old, can run and run and have so much energy. She started losing her energy over the last couple times I gave her some of the treats. You look in the bag and sniff, it doesn't smell right. She has become lethargic and has managed to have diarrhea every time, shortly after these treats. I refuse to give her anymore. I will never buy Ol' Roy products again and I will always check the labels and see what ingredients they are putting in the food and her treats. These tiny T's contain Propylene Glycol 6 ingredients in. That stuff is used in antifreeze! Please I beg you, if you love your pets, stay away from Ol' Roy products and check the labels. I don't want to lose her and I know you don't want to lose your pets either.

I bought a bag of dog food and when I went to open it, it was wet and molded and this is the second time it has happened to me. My dog loves Ol' Roy too and they will not eat anything but Ol' Roy, so if I have go to a new brand I don't know what I'm going to do. We love your dog food, but if we keep getting bad dog food, we aren't buying anymore and it's always the bags we buy.

Ol Roy Healthy Mix Weight Management is a killer. We had a very lucky escape with our four-year old golden retriever. After one serving, he began vomiting and had relentless diarrhea. Come to learn the packaging's and hence the food are heavily contaminated with waste and moisture contamination. Antibiotics made for a full recovery but a slow painful death would have ensued if not for our quick actions and a 94mph rush (I kid you not) to our local Petco animal hospital.

I opened a tub of Porterhouse steak for my dog and it had a live slug in it. That is so nasty. You pay enough for this stuff you would think it would be better than that. I am so mad!

My 5-year old pit-bull mix Toolie almost died. I fed him Ol' Roy Kibble Chunks & Chews. I bought a 40-pound bag at Wal-Mart in Lanoka Harbor, New Jersey on 2-2-12. My dog Toolie started looking like he was drunk and very off balance. He's very tired and throwing up. He is not eating and not drinking any water. I took Toolie to the vet who told me to take him to a specialist. Now, I am not giving him any food or treats from any Wal-Mart products ever again. And if you love your pets, you won't feed them any Wal-Mart and Ol' Roy products. They're trying to kill your pets. Thank you.

On January 24th, 2012, I purchased a 44.1 pound bag of Ol' Roy dry dog food for my 11 month old dog, Scrappy. After about 2 1/2, weeks my dog started acting a little out of the ordinary, but I didn't think too much of it. He was more sleepy than normal, and he didn't like leaving my side, and normally he was an energetic very healthy 70 lb 11 month old puppy, and out of the blue, on the afternoon of February 25th, 2012, almost exactly 1 month later, my dog passed away, and I had no idea why, until I started looking up this dog food, and all of the recalls on it. Please do not feed this product to the wonderful members of your family, because that's who Scrappy was to us. He was like our son. He will be missed very much. The bar code numbers on this dog food are 068113117551.

I bought a bag of Kibbles, Chunks, and Chews 40 lb. and a Complete Nutrition Dog 40 lb. I fed my 3 labs. Shortly after Sully started acting funny, staggering and he had problems with balance. He acted drunk and refused to eat or drink; then he started having trouble breathing. At first I just observed his condition. I was concerned but I didn't realize it was that serious. About 3 am I realized it was very serious when he couldn't stand. I started looking for an emergency vet that was open and then realized it was going to be too late. He died very quietly but was a healthy 5-year old dog. These products need either better quality control or need to be pulled of the market.

I noticed our pure bred Doberman started having soft stool then diarrhea. About 1/2 way through the bag of Ole Roy Complete Nutrition, I found a huge chunk of food that was covered in green mold!! Photos available.

I have been feeding our 12-year-old Chihuahua this food for 3 years with no problem. She's been healthy and active. I bought a new box of Ol' Roy Moist and Meaty and she began not wanting to eat, leaving her food untouched. She'd go back and pick at it, but began begging us for scraps, something she'd hadn't done in a long time. Now in mid-January 2012, she started losing her bladder and having bad breath. She also started coughing. We thought it was because she's old and thinking we need to prepare for the inevitable. Two days ago she started not wanting to eat at all. She had a wobbling gait and would not get out of her bed. I took her to the vet and she put her on treatments for dehydration and bladder and kidney infections. I'm looking at her lying in her bed watching me with listless eyes as I type. We thought it was because she's old. Now I read all these complaints and wonder, what are these companies feeding our beloved pets? Why would these "trusted" companies do this? Are there no inspections? Or is someone turning a "blind eye" to these dastardly deeds? Will no one stand and do something about this? But then I wonder, with the way humans are being treated around the world, why would a company care, except to make money and keep its stocks in the green and going up.

I am writing in regards to a mold problem in the OL Roy food I bought. We purchased 4 44.1 bags of OL Roy complete nutrition and got nearly half way down the bag and there was mold in the food bags! Of all 4 bags, 3 of the bags contained mold in the food bags. I do not know if it is Wal-Mart to blame for this or the manufacturing company but it is very disgusting and needs to be addressed! I threw the food away, completely disgusted and very upset having to throw money away like that! However, I did write down some info from one of the bags and they are as follows:

Best by 12/17/12 136

There was another batch of numbers that were difficult to read but I think that batch of numbers are: 151A10HWO 115:24.

I purchased a bag of Ol Roy Meaty Chunks and Gravy form Orillia Wal-Mart. I fed my dog for all of almost three weeks and during this time period my dog became quite ill, vomiting daily and having diarrhea severely. He is used to this food as we use it all the time. He has lost weight also. I made a veterinarian appointment and found that in the dog food bag when I went to scoop some into his dish one that it was full of blue mold. This mold was only from about 3/4 down inside the bag. I am so very dissatisfied with this product I not only have to pay a vet bill and medication bills for my dog, I also have to bring him back to a proper weight where his bones no longer show. I have contacted the purchase place and they are not even able to give me a contact number to your company. I am, however, taking this product to the store to show them and hopefully get reimbursed, not that $20 can even touch what the product has done. A phone call back would be the least someone could do.

I purchased a 40lb bag of Ol' Roy and it has made my dog sick. I purchased the Meaty Chunks and Gravy, it is the correct product. But even having made my dog sick, because the bag is opened, Wal-Mart will not take it back and give me a new bag. The bag info is "Buy by 1/3/13", 16 5 201D10RA3 10 25".

We adopted our sweet collie-mix one year ago. Normally, I fed him chicken breasts and other meat daily as the main part of his diet. So it was not the norm when I fed him Cuts in Gravy Country Stew from Walmart in Bluffton, Indiana. My cat, who also ate some of it, started vomiting and when we took her to the vet, she was in renal failure.She received a shot of Convenia, a long-acting antibiotic, which did work a miracle for her.

When we came home from the vet the same day, our dog met us at the door, falling over and unable to stand up. There were piles of vomit in several places in the house. His eyes were darting back and forth (nystagmus), so our vet examined him and said he had vestibular syndrome and gave us antibiotics for inner ear. I asked her at the time if it could be the Old Roy Country Stew since they had both had some of it and it was new to them. I had fed the dog half the can. She assured me that it was his inner ear. He finally recovered two weeks later and he was ravenous since he had not eaten much for the two weeks of nausea.

Three weeks after the first episode, I gave him pieces of steak, chicken, and most of a can of Old Roy during one day that he was particularly hungry. The next day, he started vomiting and had diarrhea. My husband assumed that his inner ear was bothering him again, so let him sleep since it was after-hours for the vet. When he checked on him again, he found him dead that evening.

If anyone has had problems with Old Roy from our area, could you please post something here? It is a hard thing to prove once the pet has been cremated and the can of food is gone. Save your can with the lot number on it if you have suspicions about the food. I did not think about it until I read the posts on this website after the can had already gone on trash day. Now, I wish that I had an autopsy and saved the empty can. I would like to save anyone else of the heartache of a similar loss. It's like losing a child.

I have suspicions that Old Roy was the cause. The State of Indiana has a lab that will test the food for aflatoxin, vomitoxin or bacteria if they feel there is a good chance of it being the cause of your animal's illness.

I bought a container of Ol' Roy Wet Dog Food. I only gave my dog half the container and when I went to open the other half, it had mold all over it. There were like 3 big, white fuzzy spots of mold, good thing I caught it before I put it in my dog's bowl or he would of gotten sick.

We bought a 10 lbs. Box of Ol' Roy dog treats multi-flavored biscuits at Walmart and when I looked in the box, I found a black biscuit. This upset me because if I would have given it to my dog, it may have made him sick, or, it could have killed him. I do still have this black biscuit. I wanted to let you know.

The bag of dog food I bought just last week has maggots. I'm not very pleased about this because if something happens to my dog, someone will pay the price. My dog is like my kid.

I bought a bag of Ol Roy dog food and it has mold in it. l was so angry to find this in there. I have bought this dog food for my dogs and have never found nothing like this. It smells really bad. Here is the number to the bag, #88 and the expiration date JAN-05-13. So l knew l bought it before the expiration date. It was bought on JAN-28-2012.

I purchased an 18 kg. bag of the chunks and gravy. When I got home, it wasn't the right product. It was the Complete Nutrition, red bag. I tried to return it to Wal-Mart and they refused to take it back because it was opened. Then, to make matters worse, the associate from the pet department was helping me bring it out to my car and dropped it and wasted more than half on the parking lot. I went back into the store, very angry and they still refused to replace the product and advised me to contact you. The UPC code is 0538898606, and the best before date is Jan. 3/2013. There were also numbers preceding the BBD: 08:00:54 1397

I just was reading some of the comments posted about your product, mostly negative. But I have been feeding Ol Roy to my dogs for years and they love it. I tried my pit-bull on Purina Puppy and she would sniff it and walk away. She loves Ol Roy especially when I mix the gravy and chunks in with a half of a can of the can food. If you could just send me a replacement coupon for the bag of food, I would really appreciate it.

My dog just loves the squeezy packages of Ol Roy, so I decided to try the containers. He turned his nose up at it. When my husband tried to give him one, he noticed the lids were not fully intact and they were starting to mold. I will continue to feed him the squeezy packages, but will never buy the other. It may have been just a production problem at the time, so I am sending you the lot number for your reference in case you need to make a recall: Meaty Chunks in Gravy (zarnwm lrbvqjx a); 5.5 oz; best by January 14, 2013.

Horrible, horrible excuse for dog food. But guess what? Horrible decision on the owner's part. What do you think? You're just going to buy the cheapest food and expect great results? Try feeding your human child ramen noodles for the rest of their life and see what comes of it! You are to blame! You. You caused your dogs' death or sickness for being so cheap! I get it, it's a bad time for all of us but if that's the case, then don't own an animal. I, myself, have a 100% pure breed Siberian Husky and would never even think to buy her such food. I'm a realist. So if something is cheap in price, I just don't buy it because cheap in price means cheap in quality (sorry! That's the way it is).

I am a 23-year old waitress with a four year old, a dog, and my own apartment. Don't think I'm some rich person talking out of their ** here. I am struggling just like the rest of us. My mom's dog died because of her own ignorance and her cheap ways. My dog, on the other hand, won't die too early because I pay for her to be and remain healthy. Chicken breast, rice (even brown rice) and vegetables are a perfect way to feed your dog with very little cost! Cook them, store them for some days and call it a day. Pet owners seem to be so freaking lazy but want to point fingers and tend to look at who is really controlling their dog's diet. Shame on this company and shame on the owners that thought it would be a good idea to buy the cheapest thing they could find. Don't own an animal if you can't afford to keep it healthy. Like I said, chicken breast, rice and vegetables. You're ignorant for trusting someone else to feed your animal. Would you buy cheap meals to feed your child?

I bought two six packs of the Ol Roy 13.2 oz. can dog food and there were at least four cans of the 12 that had dents and causing the top to be open. I refused to feed my pets any dog food that are opened! I would appreciate some kind of repayment somehow. You wouldn't eat any type of can food that was opened. And since they were wrapped, I didn't notice the dents and openings until I got the cans out.

In July of 2011 our dog refused to eat any of the Ol Roy food she has been raised on. She had a high fever and would vomit whenever she ate the food. She lost weight and muscle mass. The vet thought maybe cancer of stomach. After trying different dog food and steroids, she regained her weight and looked fine again. Ol Roy sent us free coupons which we used. And 3 months later, after she was back on Ol Roy, the same reactions occurred (vomiting and loss of weight). Ol Roy checked the bag we sent them back and said it was fine. The next time we went to get Ol Roy, the bag and formula had changed since our contact with Ol Roy. Hmm. The vet has no answers and we are back on the same path using another brand of food. Is anyone else having similar problems with Ol Roy Complete Nutrition?

I currently have 8 dogs (7 are mine and one that is my son's) and I have been feeding them Ol' Roy's version of kibbles and bits for more than 3 years. I have never had any problems with the food. I did have to buy the real Kibble and Bits once and none of the 8 would eat it. I finally had to get more of the Ol' Roy and mix the two foods.

My dogs are primarily blue-tick beagles with 3 other mix breeds. Their weights range from 12 to 80 pounds and they are all very healthy and active. It is interesting to note that many plants manufacture more than one brand of food and perhaps the problems are not with the brand itself but with the plant. Does anyone remember the massive dog food recall from several years ago? One plant was making Pedigree, science diet and Iams brands. The plant was contaminated, not the brand.

One more note: 4 of the beagles are pups that I raised and all were started on Ol' Roy. Today, they are almost 5 years old.

We use Ol' Roy canned dog food all the time. Walmart was out of the multi-pack cans so I had to get meatloaf and that was all that was available. I opened the first can on 12-30 and the poodle has been sick ever since. Something was wrong with that food. I'm probably going to have to take the dog to vet as he is getting worse and had to go outside every 1 1/2 hour last night. Our dog will die. He is only a six to seven-pound dog.

The entire month of December, I have given my 2 dogs the Ol Roy cans of cuts in gravy "Savory Chicken Dinner" (U.P. code 8113170379, best by 10-14-14, number 1287BC G1WDC1019). My large dog had started with extreme gas which led to soft stools then to diarrhea for about three weeks on and off. It would go off only if I fed him the food with one cup of rice. Then last night, he started vomiting excessively (approx. 800cc or more times 3). I did not know a dog could vomit that much. I had to rush him to the vet, an emergency visit of course. He was diagnosed with colitis and intestinal gastritis.

Well tonight my cocker spaniel who ate a small can of strips in gravy "Filet Mignon Flavors" (U.P. code 7874207151, best by 10-12-14, number 1285BC C2WFM1318) is now also vomiting excessively. The English Pointer treatment was: 2 fecal exams, shots for vomiting, and something to calm the intestines, special prescription diet food, and an antibiotic for seven days. 24 hours later my English Pointer is better, almost back to himself. Both my dogs after eating this dog food could not digest it after 5 hours of eating it. It was all undigested food yesterday and today. It seems that after weeks of eating enough of this product, the toxins and bacteria grew in the intestines to where both dogs vomited excessively. It is as if it just came out of the can. These poor dogs are suffering. Why? I would like to have an answer.

I have 4 dogs, and they all got sick from eating Ol Roy dog food I bought from Wal-Mart in Hurricane, Utah. I have been buying this same brand of dog food for over a year, but this batch made them very sick. The day I changed their food, they were fine.

My dog is a very outgoing and well behaved dog. She is a 7th Champion Bloodline American Pit bull. My husband and I grabbed a 20 lb. bag of the Ol Roy complete nutrition with the green label "Compare to Purina Dog Chow". My dog's stomach has been making crazy noises. She is very lazy after only 2 days of eating this food. I only noticed her change in personality and being non-responsive because I found a huge chunk of molded clump up food. Ol Roy will be held accountable for this. She is going to the vet tomorrow and if I lose my child over a money hungry careless company, I promise they will regret allowing this food on any shelf. Legal actions will be taken.

My dogs are sick and dying from Ol Roy Dog food. Walmart should be ashamed for selling such nasty dog food. I want to know where this dog food is made. Who makes it?

My dog became very ill after eating Ol Roy dog food for about a week's time. He began to vomit and diarrhea uncontrollably and was hospitalized for many days. He had lost more than 11 pounds in less than the week's time that he was consuming this food. He had to have surgery as well as pushing fluids through and many other treatments to save my poor baby and so young and close to the holidays! He had ulcers as well as internal bleeding and blockage in his small intestine caused from the horrible bacteria in the dog food! He was over viewed by 3 vets as well as a Cornell specialist and all were linked to the dog food!

I have over $5,000 in vet bills and still climbing! Thank God for the amazing vets that saved my poor dog's life and did everything that they could to help us and him! I have contacted Walmart as well as Ol Roy (Simmons) dog food and I have had no response. I got an answer that I will have someone call you within 1-5 business days and I have been calling for 2 weeks. Nobody has returned my call and nobody is even attempting to make anything at all better!

I have hounds for hunting and this year I had two died after hunting season for no reason. My four year old died on Oct and my two year old on Dec 17. They died in their dog house. They will be missed very much. If it Ol Roy dog food's fault then they should be accountable for their food.

If I could rate this food any lower, I would. My beloved pup (just turned one year on Oct. 31, 2011) is now staying at the vet's office being pumped full of fluids and anti-biotic because of this food. She was bleeding out of her bum, drinking a ton of water, urinating like crazy, vomiting and refusing all food. She became very lethargic and her eyes got very runny. She was tested for Parvo (which scared me because we have two other dogs) and that came back negative. She will be picked up this afternoon pending her response to treatment. Please, please do not feed this to your dogs!

Pathetic dog food! Okay, I posted a week ago that my dog was sick and I think it was the dog food. Well my dog is dead now! He died Dec 14th. I am so devastated! These people need to be held accountable for their actions! Someone needs to be sued!

Our Cane Corso Pedigree Mastiff recently passed away from a pancreatic tumor. After reading this blog, I can't help but wonder if what I was feeding him to help him live actually contributed to his death! Take it off the market! He was only 6 years old and it will be a lonely Christmas without him.

While I was doing a web search today, I came across this blog. I hope all of you who have lost an animal are talking with your local vets, and reporting your concerns. In Michigan, you can call the agriculture department at 800-292-3939, and ask for the animal feeds section. Here is more information **.

Their rate is really negative 0. We have fed our Akita a pedigree dog food for years and he was a show Dog, always very healthy pedigree who retired 1 month ago. A friend bought us a 40 lb. bag of Ol'Roy red bag. We don't buy that type of food for our dog. One and a half weeks ago, we ran out of pedigree so I fed the Ol'Roy to him. He didn't want it but ate it. That night, he threw up and had diarrhea. A couple of days later, he started drinking lots of water. His pee smelled like dead fish. Then he started peeing blood. To make a long story short, he lost control of his back legs. Then in the morning of 11-30-2011, when we woke up, we found him lying on the kitchen floor dead! Then we discovered that Ol'Roy dog food has been killing pets across the country.

WalMart and Ol'Roy killed our beloved dog/son. We are heartbroken. We cry. We go out to where we buried him and cry. My sons and grandson are devastated by his death or should I say murder because that is what it is. Ol'Roy dog food and WalMart is killing our pets and getting away with murder! We would be in prison if it we're us: you and me! What are we going to do people? They need to be held responsible for the murders of our pets. If it was our kids, then what? They need to be stopped from killing more dogs. They are killing our family members. Let's get together and stop them. Make them pay power in numbers. I'm not letting them get away with killing my dog!

I have been feeding my 9-year old German Shepard the Ol Roy gravy dry dog food. He is currently sick. Hasn't eaten anything even though I have changed the food to something different. He is drinking a lot of water and urinating a lot. He is also breathing heavy, kind of a growl breathing. I'm waiting to take him to the vet on Thursday. That is when his appointment is. I love my dog very much and I will sue if my dog dies because of this brand of dog food. Even my little puppy won't eat it.

Regarding Ol' Roy Dog Food Complete Nutrition, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this dog food. In many of the complaints I have read against this food many of the people stated that it was the food that made their dog sick. I feed this food to all 4 of my dogs. They range in size from 4 lbs to 140 lbs. and I have never once had a single problem with this food. Any person who has had dogs knows that switching foods takes time, that you cannot just give a dog or any pet a different food overnight and not expect a reaction, such as loose bowels or vomiting. Would you give a baby who has never had solid foods loaded nachos from Taco Bell and not expect explosive diapers?! I think not!

Consumers need to look at all possible things such as viruses, etc. that do not appear for days/weeks that cause all these symptoms. I have also noticed that if the dog passed, there was no mention of Vet care or an Autopsy to verify cause of death. I could guarantee that if a Member of my Family died suddenly and I suspected it was caused by a large consumer product such as Ol' Roy I would be compelled to find out if that was the true cause so I could be reimbursed for my losses and my suffering, rather than suspicions of wrongdoing on anyone's part other than my own carelessness.

It's the Ol' Roy dog food from Walmart Kingston, Ontario; my dog suffered puking and diarrhea and blood in her stool. This has happened to others in the past.

I can't go any lower than 1 but if I could it would be -5. Many years ago, I fed a dog Ol' Roy dog food and he got sick but we never figured out what caused it. I now know. Two weeks ago, we got a new mixed puppy and got him Ol' Roy Pigz'n Blankets dog treats. Fed him only about four of them and within 24 hours he started puking and having diarrhea all over. He would not eat so we contacted the shelter we got him from and they suggested no food or water to get his belly settled. We did this and they even gave him fluids to keep him hydrated.

Within a few days, he was better and has been for a week or so. But just yesterday, my fiance gave him 2-3 over a 12 hour span and by late last night he got diarrhea again and is starting to not want to eat. Then I find this site. I am appalled that Walmart could let all of this happen. I think the BBB needs to step in and evaluate the situation.

No star here. I have been buying Ol' Roy 40 lbs. red bag dog food for years. This is the only kind Rosie, a 7 years old dobie, eats. She got a bad body odor. Her breath had a bad odor. Her right eye was watering real bad. This pass Thanksgiving Day was a bad day. She was drinking a lot of water and then throwing up all over the house.

The code number is **. This bag had bugs in it. They looked like fleas, so we got all kinds of flea spray and gave Rosie a bath again. They were all over the house. Several days we found out that they were not fleas. She is doing better, but her eye is still messed up and she has no hair around that eye. I call the company and they tell us that we are the first one with this problem.

My rating for Ol Roy dog food is negative 5. I normally use another brand of dog food but picked up a bag of Ol Roy from Wal-Mart in KY on 11/28/2011. My puppy has had a major allergic reaction. Eyes are swelled shut, whelps on his stomach, diarrhea and vomiting. He is at the vet now getting fluids. Do not buy! I cannot understand how these people get away with marketing this product after so many complaints. Pull this ** off the shelf. I have a very sick little puppy dog.

Wow! I've never heard of anyone having any problems with "Red Bag" Ol Roy dog food until I found this. I have never, in the past 25 years of having dogs, had a single problem with this food.

Your reformulated Ol Roy dog food is not very good. I have three dogs and none of them liked it. One refused to eat it. I would not buy it again.

I have been feeding my dog Ol Roy since the day before thanksgiving because when I went to get the kind I usually get, they were out. Well, now she has diarrhea, puking horribly, also she has been panting lately when it's not even hot. It's fall/winter here. she is a greyhound mix has very short hair so she shouldn't be panting. It was the biggest red bag complete nutrition number 81131 17551. I will be switching her dog food back to pedigree today and if she is still throwing up, I will be taking her to the vet. I really hope something is done about this before it hurts anymore dogs. I will be heartbroken if I lose my little ladybug.

Ol Roy dog food killed my son's new puppy. This company and Walmart should be ashamed! This poor puppy suffered horribly and my son is devastated. It needs to be taken off the shelves before it kills more dogs. This needs less than a zero star.

I purchased a bag of Old Roy dog biscuits and fed one to our black lab. My chi-pom dog wanted one also so I gave him one on Thursday night. When I got home from work on Friday, he was acting sick and laying around. He would not eat anything, however I managed to get him to eat a little bite of scrambled eggs. By Sunday, he was even sicker as he was dehydrated and was running a fever so I rushed him to an animal clinic. The vet gave him fluids, antibiotics and advised to take him to a regular vet as soon as they opened. I sat up all night with him with stomachache.

He was in so much pain that he could not be still. I took him to the vet, who said he had a severe intestinal infection. He kept him, started with fluids and more antibiotics. The next day he suspected a blocked intestine, but my baby died before he could do surgery. I lost my sweet Charlie after he ate that dog biscuit. My black lab got sick shortly after that, but started meds as soon as we noticed symptoms. I had vet bills over 400 dollars and still lost my dog. WalMart should be held responsible for these sick and dying dogs. It has been 2 weeks and I still can't get over how sick my sweet innocent little dog was and how he suffered.

My chihuahua ate Ol Roy's Soft & Moist dog food and within the last 2 days, he had had rapid weight loss and vomiting up his water when he drinks. Just like everyone else, I found this at Wal-Mart and bought it because it was a bit cheaper than the Moist and Meaty food I usually buy. But it had a horrible effect on my dog and he is always energetic and when he gets fed he's right there at his bowl to eat.

Now he refuses to eat at all, but wants to drink a lot which tells me he's dehydrated. Unfortunately, he is having a hard time keeping down water now. I called the vet and get going to be a lot just to get him checked out. This food should be taken off the shelves immediately. I hope my pup is okay and first thing tomorrow, I'm going back to the Moist and Meaty. My other 2 Chihuahuas had effects too, like seizures and seemed delirious and tired unfortunately. They got better but I'm gonna have to keep an eye on my boy and hope he makes it through the night. I will never feed this to them again.

Update! My dog stormy died today. Hope Ol Roy dog food people are happy. Now they can add another one to the list of the ones they have killed.

Wow! Are you kidding me? I'm looking up dog food for a dog that has kidney and pancreatic problems and came across this. My dog Stormy started projectile puking and drooling on Thanksgiving night (2011). We couldn't figure it out. The next day, I took her to the vet and he sent her home with meds. I started giving her them and she became worse. 4 days of this communicating with the vet, we had to take her in today for an emergency (Sunday). She was severely sick, vomiting, drooling, shaking and couldn't stand. He did blood test while we were there and came back with pancreatic and severe kidney. They are keeping her for a few days, hoping she will respond to the meds.

As I am writing this, I am waiting for the vet to call with an update. I started looking for dog food for her and I came across this. I am horrified. I fed Ol Roy's complete nutrition from Walmart in the red bag. I think there should be a class action lawsuit against this dog food and pulled from shelves and never sold again to anyone or anything! There is nothing we can do now, but I hope she makes it. No one should ever feed anything from Ol Roy if you love your pet.

The dog is sick throwing up after switching to Ol roy dog food, he has had no other dog foods fed except 10 little Friskie crispy treats which are the size of peas. My dog is normally full of energy. He is under 2 years and now he is sick lying around throwing up. His eyes look glossy sick, I'm taking him to the vet. The dog food is the biggest red bag UPC number 81131 17551 complete nutrition.

My husband got a bag of Ol Roy Chicken Strips from Wal-Mart. I came home from work to find that my two dogs had gotten sick all over the place - finished all of their water, diarrhea everywhere, consumed a ton of water that night. I immediately pegged the treats, since they'd never had those before. Wal-Mart needs to stop selling this garbage. Dogs are fine now. No more junk from Wal-Mart.

I had a bag of the Red Ol Roy dog food. I fed it to my dog and she got sick. She started throwing up, had diarrhea, staggering back and forth, etc. So, for 3 days my dog was sick. I started feeding her Kibbles, and bits, and she is perfectly fine. I cant believe that Wal-Mart still has this product in their store. They should get fined for this. By the way, I do not give them a star. I had to put something in order for it to go through.

I bought a bag of Lamb And Rice, fed my dog, and he started having diarrhea that evening along with vomiting. This lasted 3 days. I realized it may be the bag of new food. I switched brands and he started perking up and having solid stools again. I know it had to be the Ole Roy Lamb and Rice. It has the UPC code 8113 1 17560 and was bought in Illinois. Please do not take the chance on this brand of food.

I owned a blue demon pit bull that was a little over a year and a half. I always fed all my dogs Ol Roy red bag, then one morning in June 2011, I woke up to him growling. My husband and I went to see what was there, and he was acting like he had no clue who we were, or where he was even at. He then began to try and attack my husband, and as soon as he got out the door, he, in return, tried to attack me, and my female pit bull stopped him.

I had to call animal control and then had to call the cops, and they gave him four tranquilizer shots, and then shot him four times in the chest before he would die. He did not have rabies because he had not really started foaming from the mouth badly,and it was not abuse or neglect or, or even drugs to turn him like that. The vet asked me, the animal control, and the health department, and my family, and there was no reason for him to have acted this way. One lady told me that it was possibly the Ol Roy dog food and it is a known fact that this food has done this to other dogs too.

I really think something should be done about this. I lost a great son ( he was just like a big baby boy). who wouldn't hurt a fly off his butt. Someone please help get this dog food off the shelves. I can never bring my dog back, but we can stop others from being on his death row too. It's bad enough pit bulls have bad names,but when we are feeding them the dog food, that's killing them. Something should be done. I love all my pit bulls and they are taken better care of than I do myself, so please someone help us!

On Friday, November 11, 2011, my husband and I purchased the large 40lbs bag of Ol' Roy Kibbles, Chunks and Chews in the light blue bag. We brought it home and fed it to our 4-year old miniature dachshund. We also had 2 miniature Pomeranian pups who were only 8 weeks old. We caught them in the wiener dog's food bowl and shooed them out of it. To make a long story short, by that evening, our wiener dog was gagging and retching. I really didn't think too much of it until the next morning at 6, I found him lying in the bedroom floor cold and stiff and barely breathing. The pom puppies were in their kennel, one was vomiting profusely while the other one was pooping everywhere.

I made a 6:30AM emergency visit to the vet's office with them. By late morning, one of the poms had died. The other 2 stayed overnight and was given fluids, antibiotics and one was placed in a hot box to bring up his temperature. He never maintained his temperature on his own and by Sunday morning, the other two dogs had died as well. After running bloodwork, the vet determined that their liver was damaged so severely that they could not be healed. The only thing these 3 pets had done the same that day was eating the Ol' Roy dog food.

I bought a big bag of Old Roy Kibbles Chunks and Chews. When I got to the bottom of the bag, the dog food looked like it was molded. Just wondered if you have had any other complaints about this? I have 2 Schnozers and this is all they will eat.

I bought Ol' Roy canned wet food for my dog because his usual dog food was out of the chunky pieces kind. He didn't like the ground mushy kind and the Ol' Roy was the only kind on the shelf that had chunky in stock. The night I gave him the food, he began making groaning noises. The next night, he continued groaning but his stomach had distended so much it felt like a balloon about to burst.

I brought him to the emergency vet and his stomach had twisted inside cutting off circulation to his other organs. He was 11 years old and surgery had a grim chance of saving him. He passed away less than an hour ago. I am so angry and sad. I will never forgive myself for buying that food!

Real rating is 0 star! I feed my 1 year old Yorkie Ol' Roy for about a week because it was on sale and I ran out of his Kibble and Bits. Now, I no longer have a dog. He got weak one day, laid down, and died. No explanation, the only change in his recent routine was his Ol' Roy food. I have a Chihuahua, and last night, he threw up after eating Ol' Roy. It wasn't until last night that I realized why I lost my dog on Saturday. After reading all of these reviews, there is no doubt in my mind that this food killed my dog.

Our German Shepherd Tex is 11 months old and I purchased Ol Roy dry food in the large red bag. He remained on the food for approximately 4 weeks during which time he displayed symptoms including: hair loss, severe and constant itching, drainage in the corner of the eyes, constant heavy panting even when inactive, and emitting a strong odor. These symptoms only appeared after he began this food. We decided to discontinue this brand in hopes the symptoms will subside as we ruled out fleas after examining him on several occasions.

First of all, my fiance made a complaint about one dog and I am making a complaint on behalf of the one that almost died. We purchased a big jug of the Ol Roy Dog biscuits and a few days after we began feeding them to him. He got sick, throwing up, diarrhea, staggering back and forth, etc. We drove 45 minutes to the vet and he sends us 2 hours away to the city as an emergency due to dehydration from him being so sick. No it was not parvo, or anything like that. It was a virus however, they neglected to ask us what we fed him. These Ol Roy products have been causing tremendous damage to our friends and it is inexcusable. Something must be done. We are not rich but these are members of our loving family. I am a Canadian and owning a pet is like living in America. Cost of medical bills is simply horrid. And if you do not have the money, your animal dies. Do they get that? He got sick and almost died.

The 5 star is for the scare it gave us!! Last week we took a drive into the city, we went into Walmart and purchased Ol' Roy dog food and the tub of treats. I fed the dog food to my Chesapeake Bay Retriever. In less than 24 hours my Chesapeake Bay Retriever started to stink and I mean,just as raw sewage did. Within 30 hrs she started to have blood in her stool, she got shaky and looked at us as she was mad. We asked a vet assistant what could cause this but no answer could be given, just a virus that was going by. She never got rid of the virus, her 3 hrs a day swims kept getting shorter and shorter to the point she can't go swimming for 10 minutes. She comes to shore and lays there looking at us and she has lost a lot of weight. Her hips look like they're going inside. Shelby is her name and I feel so bad knowing I was giving my best friend her death sentence.

Purchased Old Roy multi-flavored biscuits in a 10 lb box from Walmart. After a short time, worms started coming out of them. The UPC is **. I stopped feeding them to my dogs and plan on looking in to a class action suit against Walmart and the manufacturer in light of all the other complaints I see here. The manufacturer and seller of these products need to be made accountable, especially if they continue to sell this after they have been informed. Now I realize that Walmart has hundreds of lawyers to go through with this but if we can get the Feds involved. They can afford to break them.

I am a regular buyer of your dog food and overall, it's great. My last trip to Walmart, I purchased three 44lbs bags of your O'l Roy dog food and there was only one flavor, there was supposed to be two. All of the bites were the same. There were no real consequences other than the dogs didn't enjoy it as much as usual.

We fed our yorkie Ol' Roy and he passed away. If I could have checked a negative star, I would have. We fed our silky yorkie Ol' Roy two days ago. He threw it up and had bad diarrhea. Last night, a very bad smell came from his rectum. I called our vet and got scheduled to come in this morning. I stayed up with him till 2:45 AM. This morning, he was convulsing. I was en route to the vet when he stopped breathing. I gave him mouth to mouth several times trying to keep him going till I made it to the vet. It worked, but on the third attempt, he passed away in my arms. I just buried him. I have no doubt that this food is the reason. My silky was only three years old.

We bought a 48 lbs. bag. The bottom half of this bag was molded. Our dogs (3) have been losing their hair and losing weight. We're going back to Iams. I called to place a complaint and was told that there's nothing wrong with their foods. I found this site today. I am now calling them back to demand my money back and for payments of the vet bills.

We have been feeding our dog with Ol' Roy for years. Last week of September, I bought our usual (red) bag of dog food but I noticed that our black Labrador was not eating it like she has been. I stopped feeding it to her and changed to Purina One. I started noticing spots where clumps of hair fell out. She went from 9 pounds down to rib sticking out skinny.

Now she will not eat nor drink. She has no energy at all. We are just waiting for the inevitable to happen. She was always so full of energy and happy. She would "demand" her food with a smile on her face. I am so mad! None of this started until we got that last bag. She is only 7 years old! How can someone sell something that is bad? I wonder if the Walton's feed the crap to their dogs. I bought a big bonus bag with 48 lbs, UPC 7874204886. I still have over a half bag left!

I have been feeding my Blue Heeler Ol' Roy for over eight years and I had never had a problem until now. I had just purchased a new bag of Ol' Roy and started feeding it to my dog. Two days later, my dog died! She could hardly stand, and her body shut down. There was no bowel movement, the last pee was very dark, and she was breathing very fast and hard. We were unable to make it to the vet before she passed. If you are feeding your dog Ol' Roy, be very aware of what can happen because you can lose your best friend and work companion.

Ol' Roy pet food is the worse dog food ever. My dog is 87 lbs. and after feeding her this food, her eyes, lips, and tongue got swollen and red. She got bumps all over her body. She threw up 10 times in one day and went to the bathroom about seven times. She didn't want to eat or drink water. She lost about 20 lbs. in two days. After I stopped feeding her this brand of dog food, she got better. She is only a year old and almost died. Walmart still carries this brand and I contacted them but no response. I contacted FOX 5 News and they are already investigating the issue. The more people that contact FOX 5 News, the more exposure we can give Walmart and Ol' Roy for selling toxic food to our dogs! The dog almost died and got very sick!

I bought a box of dog biscuits from Wal-mart. The box said expiration date 4/27/2012. I was breaking them in half and found them to be filled with worms.

I currently have five Siberian Huskies and was feeding them ol' Roy canned dog food, mixing it with dry, and all six (at the time) got very sick including vomiting, diarrhea, and dehydration. One passed away, the other five survived. One needed emergency vet care and he almost died. I had the canned food tested and found bacteria in the food that made all six of my dogs very ill and costing one of them her life. Please have this food banned, it is a death sentence!

I bought a 40 pounds bag of Ol' Roy dog food in the brown bag for my friend down the street. There was a tear in the side of the bag, and there were little bugs with wings in it. I didn't keep the receipt because I've never even knew there could be a problem with the dog food. I mean it's just dog food. I guess I'd feel different if it was my pet. Anyhow, he threw away the bag too because he didn't want bugs in his house. However, he said that he got the UPC code off the bag and here it is 0 78742-05815 3. I had to pay him the money for the dog food because he freaked out on me. So, I gave him the $40.00 that he gave me. Now I'm out of $40.00. Can you help me? I purchased the dog food at Wal-Mart in Fremont, Nebraska, and I live in Oakland, Nebraska. My phone number is **.

I have fed Ol' Roy for 20 years. This past month, late September until October 7, my 8 year old male German Shorthair became fatally sick. I am concerned that he has been poisoned by dog food. I've never had a problem before. But I feed Ol' Roy exclusively. The symptoms are as follows: bloody diarrhea, quick severe weight loss, dramatic loss of appetite, and neurological deterioration, including unable to stand. If I were feeding Ol' Roy, I'd stop immediately. I purchased Ol' Roy High Performance 50 lbs., Soft and Moist, and Cuts in Gravy in September. His symptoms became evident on Sept. 26. I took him to the vet. No treatment helped.

My dog, Mr. Brown, passed away after eating Ol Roy's dog food. He was a very healthy dog kept indoors, but in one day, he suffered from seizures, urinating blood, vomiting, and inability to walk. He also did not recognize us anymore; he attacked one of my kids. We had to call animal control to get him.

I started feeding my dogs, 3 labs and 1 corgi, Ol Roy around December of last year. They appeared to be fine until about April. I noticed they were not losing their winter coats. Their hair was rough and dry. My chocolate lab, who is only a year, lost her coat in clumps. And it turned white in patches. My yellow male lab began running into things. He couldn't track the ball playing fetch. His balance was off. And he would not take his treats without being aggressive. My corgi and yellow lab had loose stools constantly. My corgi was also developing balance and hip issues as well. I ended up taking my yellow lab into the vet due to his increasing lack of visual coordination. They ran several hundred of dollars in tests. All were normal except for a vision test. When asked what I was feeding, I told them Ol Roy. They told me to stop immediately, cold turkey even!

I switched all my dogs to Canidae All Stages. I have seen a marked improvement in coat and energy in all my dogs. I contacted 3 other vet clinics in our area, as well as a local feed store chain. All of them stated without a pause: stop feeding Ol Roy! They considered it the bottom of the barrel for food. They backed that with stating they have seen many cases of dogs with neurological issues and blindness, along with other side effects from feeding this food. My dogs' vision damage has been done at this point. So, I hope I can prevent anyone else from having to go through the anguish, permanent damage to their dog's health, and cost of having to have a dog treated because they are feeding this food. I feel the sellers of this dog food should be told of these types of cases so as to better inform their customers.

In August, I purchased a 44.1lbs bag of Ol' Roy dog food (UPC 6 81131 177551 7; Expiration date of 07/31/12). After our dogs began getting ill, we noticed that there was something in the dog food. It appeared to be some type of mold. We had to throw the entire bag away. As soon as we switched foods, the dogs' health began improving.

I was recently at Wal-Mart and bought Ol' Roy because I was at that store. I normally feed them Gravy Train, which both my dogs love to eat. The bag I bought was the red bag complete nutrition. I fed both my dogs and my pure-bred Dachshund after one day became lethargic and had severe bloody stool that smelled like death. I have thought it to be parvo but realized that she was still drinking water and trying to eat. She was very energetic but then after eating that garbage they call Ol' Roy, she stopped.

I have given her syringe's of water and coaxed her back to eating the Gravy Train. She is slowly recovering but the mental anguish knowing that at one point I was going to have to put her down because of this. This company needs to be fined and sued and retribution needs to be paid back in full to all those who have lost their loved ones.

My dog is getting sick and will not eat dinner rounds. I am thinking I should get it checked, anyone else want to do this? My dog is older but was full of life and has been sick since eating this. She had always wanted to go for walks and run with me, but she is now whining and refuses to do anything.

I have fed my dogs Ol Roy for years. One night I woke up to find my white German Shepherd, Jake, having a seizure. This continued all day. Jake spent 6 days in a vet hospital. He was given IV fluids constantly. The vet only gave my Jake 25% chance of survival. I put him on soft food (Pedigree), so that I could add his 2 phenobarbital pills and liquid medication that the vet mixed up to try and see if it would help Jake. It did. I began giving him Ol Roy again. Two days later, he began seizing again. I changed his food back to Pedigree and added his medicines. The seizing stopped. On Thursday, he started back on his Ol Roy. Last night he had 5 seizures in 11 minutes. I have come to the conclusion this morning that every time I put Jake back on Ol Roy, he begins with the seizures again. I am so glad that I have finally put two and two together before this food killed my beloved Jake. His vet hospital bill was $1200.00, and his monthly medicines are over $100.00. I am going to check into a class action law suit against Walmart\Sam's until they pull this brand permanently.

I have been feeding all of my dogs the same dog food, O'roy dry, for about 7 years. I have changed since I noticed that out of all my dogs, I have lost 7 dogs to either stomach cancer or lung cancer. The veterinarian said that it had to be food that they all had in common. I wish there was some way that I could prove this. I rescue dogs from the shelters that have been abused, only to lose them this way. Someone needs to look at the dog food that Walmart is putting on the shelves.

In the past, I have bought a bag of Ol' Roy dog food. However, my dogs got sick and they were throwing up due to diarrhea so I returned the bag. For Purina, my dogs got better. But due to the economy, I needed to save money whenever I could. I have seen that Ol' Roy had come out with a 44-lb bag of dog food which states 'comparable to Purina dog chow' and it was only $16.00 bucks. Yet again, my dogs (one pit bull, two adult chihuahuas and two chihuahua puppies) became sick and were throwing up because of diarrhea constantly. This is the last time that I will put my dogs' health at risk. I will never buy Ol' Roy again. It is just garbage and should be pulled off the shelves.

This is the third bag of Ol' Roy Meaty & Chunky Gravy 22lbs of dog food that I bought that does not make any gravy. I normally put water over the food for a few minutes to make the gravy, but the water just stays clear and no gravy.

Over the years I had no problem, but now it is an issue. I have to buy 2 bags a month for my dogs.

I have fed my 6-year-old dog dinner rounds since she was a puppy. A batch that I have had since August, such as other complaints, has been making her sick. It is the only thing new added a new bag of dinner rounds.

She started with diarrhea and she gets sick, vomiting within 30 minutes of eating them. Nothing else she eats. I believe there is a bad batch of dog food here, considering she only gets sick upon eating food from this bag.

It will be going in the garbage after reading other reviews and I will not feed her an Ol' Roy product again.

I have been purchasing the Ol' Roy complete nutrition red bag dry dog food for 3 years now and have been feeding it to my 2 AKC Champion English Bulldogs. I have noticed the dogs have loose balls and were throwing up a lot. I never dreamed it was the food until today. When I let them out to eat, use the restroom, get some play time of 30-45 minutes, I opened the door to let them in and saw both of them dead with vomit and urine all around them.

Someone owes me big time. These dogs were members of my family and my children's family, and we are all mourning the death of both dogs on the same day at the same time. I am having the FDA do an investigation, and I'm getting an attorney for wrongful death law suit. This is wrong in so many ways. What else kills two dogs at the same time? What a tragic event. From now on, if I eat pizza, so will my future animal. I suggest everyone to do the same - sue the ** of Wal-mart and the Ol' Roy company. Someone has to be held responsible for this. It is murder of animals.

I fed my 10 lbs and 7 month old pug 3 packages of Ol'Roy Soft & Moist over a 3 day period. On the 2nd day, she appeared to have an abundance of mustard yellow stools. And she was urinating a lot. After feeding her on the 3rd morning, she just lost all bladder control and was salivating uncontrollably. Currently, she is at the vet. Most likely, she has kidney failure due to poisoning by this crap.

I fed my dog Ol Roy dog food. The next day, she had runny diarrhea with blood in it! My dog is only 2 years old and I know it was the dog food because she did not eat anything different other than the Ol Roy which I bought comparing it to Ceasar's dog food. I am very upset that they sell such a dog food that is potentially dangerous to dogs! This product should be pulled from the market! Thank goodness she only ate it once.

I tried the Ol' Roy brand lean Bacon dog treats--big mistake! My seven month old dog since I had him has never had problems eating or playing. I tried the dog treats, and immediately knew there was a problem. His eating habits changed dramatically. He started passing gas. He became somewhat lethargic and disobedient. I immediately stopped giving him his "bacon" treats; I just gave him his food, and baby carrots to eat as a treat. Within a few hours, he started to act like his normal self. After reading all the complaints and witnessing firsthand the problems my baby Lefty experienced, I will never again save money and buy any Ol' Roy products.

I bought a bag of Ol Roy dog food. Every time I feed it to my dog, he throws up. But when I give him house food, he is fine. I have been buying Ol Roy dog food for over a year now and he has done really good with it. I truly believe that I bought a bad batch of dog food.

My female lab just had her first litter of puppies. I've had puppies with other dogs before and we usually use puppy chow for the puppies. But this time, I saw the Ol Roy puppy food and it seemed comparable to other dog foods. I had purchased this food to help wean my babies when the time comes.

I started them on Pedigree soft puppy food with the milk replacer first then moved to softened Ol Roy Puppy Complete and I started to notice the puppies having runny watery stool. I thought it was because of the change in food. But then the puppies started acting funny. I thought one puppy was blind and she started running into everything and crying a lot. I took her to calm her down and then she seemed fine. All the puppies were playing. Then came time to feed them again. Right after feeding her she started having seizures and foaming at the mouth and they never stopped!

Poor baby died before I could do anything for her. Then my other puppies started acting weird as well so I started looking closer at the puppy food and it had loads of hair all over the food and I got freaked out and started looking up the brand of food. I was in horror by how many complaints were out there all over with similar stories to what happened to my puppy. It made me so sick to my stomach that day! I took the food back the next day and purchased Purina one puppy which has been working fine since.

My puppies have recovered, thank goodness. But how can Walmart still be putting this sick crap on the market? When I took the food back and complained, the lady there at Walmart shook her head like she knew why I was bringing it back and under her breath was suggesting other brands of food and said she would never feed this to her dogs! I feel so bad for not looking into this dog food before I bought it! That just makes me wonder what are they putting in the Walmart brands of food humans eat and how awful that they are still allowed to sell this Ol Roy brand to people!

I found a razor blade in a 40 lb. bag of Ol' Roy Krunchy Bites & Bones. It was near the bottom portion of the bag. Luckily, it was found and it did not end up in either of our pets' stomachs. We have been very hesitant in continuing to purchase this or any other product of Ol' Roy. Bar code on this bag is 81131-17556. We are certain that the foreign object was in the bag when we purchased it.

My dear Mr. Bailey, (a mini pinch), is a very active dog, he's 8 years old. On Thursday, he was very strange after eating its portion of Ol' Roy Beef Soft & Moist. During the night I was awake because I heard him going to my bathroom, unusual because he always go outside, but since it was cold, I supposed he knows were to go. I checked and was horrified the amount of diarrhea with lumps of blood all over. That happened 2 times. The next morning, he was tumbling and confused. He was weak and having seizures. I ran to the vet who recommended some antibiotics and took some stool samples. When I arrived home, he was worse. I came back to the veterinarian and left my dog in the hospital. Immediately, they put an IV and made the blood test that seems normal. The next day, they called me at 7 o'clock in the morning and the vet didn't give me hope. The only solution was to take him to Phoenix, a more important animal hospital (2 hours from my house) to run more test. The cost: $1,500 minimum. We couldn't afford it and decided to bring him home to take care of him.

My son did some research in the computer and discovered that Ol' Roy food had an extensive recall of different products and that was poison food. My dog was poisoned! Again, I called right away my vet and make a copy of the discovery in the Internet. She was shocked. Fortunately, she has continued with the IV and my dog reacted to the treatment. Still, he is in the animal hospital, but the improvement gave us hope. Tomorrow we will visit him and we pray that on Monday, he will be with us. But she gave us a warning that maybe he will be with some health problems.

care about the pain that inflict not only to the animals but also to the ones who consider their pets part of the family.

The vet bill will be over $600 and we are retired people. According to many people, Walmart doesn't answer the complaints. Then I don't think a lawyer could do nothing in this case. I can warn the numerous pet owners and I feel that I accomplish my mission to defend ours animals.

I had purebred standard dachshund. He never ate any other dry food except Ol Roy, with few exceptions when we ran out when visiting family. I had to put him down this past week due to kidney disease and diabetes, which he had for a long time. Apparently, a friend told me her dog suffered the same fate and same symptoms, eating the exact same food from Ol Roy Wal-Mart brand. My dog was the picture of health, so it seemed, till 2 weeks ago when I noticed he was peeing a lot. Then this past weekend, he started vomiting after drinking water. This continued to worsen till he started with diarrhea with what appeared to be blood in his stool. We took him to the emergency vet. When she ran his blood, he was already too far gone to save. She said his kidneys were not functioning and he wouldn't make it. I had no choice but to put him down. I don't know if the food was the cause. But it sure seems like a little too coincidental to me not to look into it further.

I was feeding my dogs Ol Roy dog food for about six months. My dogs were both in great condition. They were never sick and were always happy go lucky until a weekend my one dog wouldn't get up. She wouldn't eat and her eyes got grey. By the third day, after puking, she was so sick she couldn't even walk. I took her to the vet and she had balls all over her inside. Her neck, her legs—everywhere she had a lymphoid and it was swelled and her spleen was enlarged. I could feel it as she laid on my lap; it felt like a big square.

The vet said she was too far gone and I had to put her to sleep. She was never even sick before. Then the following weekend my other dog started getting sick. He had blood coming out both ends. He looked like someone tried to murder him with no symptoms before this. I took him to the vet and they gave him IVs and medicine.

I had just bought a 50 pound bag of Ol Roy and I put it to the trash. I went looking for a new food and was talking to a lady at the store and she said it made her dog sick too and she had to put him to sleep. I changed to Blue Buffalo. Yes, it's more money but I have not had a problem since.

My friend said it was all in my head and said it wasn't the dog food and he kept feeding his dogs it. Well, I'm sorry to report back they are both gone now. Another friend's dog died two years ago and I asked her what she was feeding him and guess what it was? You guessed it—Ol Roy. Bottom line, please don't feed your dogs this if you love them.

On 12/03/2010, bigbabymamasboy died. Being financially strapped for a couple of months, I used Ol Roy Dog Food since it was back on the shelf; thinking since it's back on the shelf, it's safe again. My St. Bernard grazed on grass, had loose bowel movement, slept a lot, licked his legs that seemed pink in color under fur and on the day he passed on, he was laying next to me on his favorite blanket, whining and lifting his head as if he couldn't see. I laid next to him and noticed he was urinating uncontrollable twice. I was hysterical, crying. He must have knew how I was hurting, he finally got up to go outside, he pooped then came back in, drank some water and went to his other favorite blanket to nap and snore away.

Well that night, he went onto his bedroom blanket, was happily snoring as any St. Bernard does. I woke in the morning to find him laying on the side of my bed, snuggled up close. I shook his hind quarters with my foot telling him to get up time to go outside, he was still flexible at that point. He never got up so I looked down and he wasn't breathing. I have to admit, when I woke, I thought there may be something wrong. I didn't hear his snoring! He was gone to doggie heaven. Now, I can't sleep due to the lack of his snoring soothing me into slumberland.

Yes, that big boy rocked the house but it was like a waterfall lullaby to me. My heart is so broken due to me purchasing what I thought was again safe Ol Roy. Walmart has not responded to my email. I took all food and treats back to Walmart and explained it killed my dog, all I got was a refund of the money. I had switched from Ol Roy to Pedigree for the longest time but financially for two months, I opted to get Ol Roy again. Biggest mistake ever.

I now have all natural EVO from an animal feed store for my Pitmix, watching his health carefully. He doesn't have gas anymore and his sneezing is down to once or twice a day. Keeping my fingers cross that he makes it, he's much younger than my saint was. Chopper's ashes are home with me in time for Christmas. He will be placed on his favorite blanket in front of the television where he always laid during the day, right under the Christmas tree on top of the television. Something needs to be done. Ol Roy and Walmart, where this killer food is sold, do not care about our pets. It's all about the money!

Our chocolate lab has always been very energetic. But in the last few weeks, she has become lethargic, her skin started flaking off and her hair is falling out. She was eating grass and throwing up. My husband took her to the vet and they said she was having a severe allergic reaction, most likely to food. What is she eating? Ol Roy brand dog food from Wal-Mart.

We immediately switched to Purina One Lamb and Rice. We have two other dogs and neither of them seem to be sick. Like others, we were trying to save money. I have been on Ol Roy's website and the food is supposed to be good for them and healthy. I have been doing research and it seems this happens to a lot of dogs. Why is it still on the shelf?

I have a 9 year old Pit bull who has only ate Ol' Roy complete nutrition red bag dry dog food her entire life. She has gotten to were she cannot hold her bladder. I took her to the vet. and after blood work we found out she is having kidney failure. The vet. said immediately take her off of Ol' Roy dog food because it is bad for animals.

Why am I just hearing of this? How can they sell such harmful toxic food for animals? I remember there was a recall a few years ago with this dog food, now I am deeply burdened with the fact that I might have been killing my dog. The vet put her on hills prescription diet k/d. And now I have read all these complaints about Ol' roy on this website as of now the vet does not know if she will make it. Only time will tell. I hope this will help incite others on the horrible side effects of Ol' Roy dog food. I plan on contacting Ol' Roy with my findings and let them know as to what toxins their selling.

My wife and I have been feeding our dogs Ol Roy for a long time now because they like it and it's pretty reasonably priced. We purchased a 50 lbs. bag at our local Wal-Mart 3 days ago and we got it home and was feeding the dogs. As soon as I opened the bag there were dead rats on top of the dog food—4 rats and that was just on the top. They were all through out the bag. They were moldy and rotten. My wife almost got sick, so I put the bag in our garbage can outside. I'm very unsatisfied. I don't know how to get in touch with Ol Roy and Wal-Mart said there's nothing they can do to get in touch with the company. I personally think they should refund or give some dog food to us to satisfy our unpleasant experience.

Your puppy food killed 4 of my puppies! that is 1200 dollars that I have lost because of your puppy food! You need to pull it from the store shelves! You need to find out what is in your dog food that killed my otherwise healthy puppies! How many dogs and puppies have to die before you do something!

I have been feeding my dogs Ol' Roy for the past two years now. My female dog now has a heart murmur, had problems delivering her pups, the pups were malnourished, and the bleeding will not stop. I found out just yesterday that it was because of your dog food not containing the proper vitamins that you claim it does. I have also had to put my male dog down, this past week, and found out through the autopsy that his blindness was caused by not getting the nutrition from the food. His arthritis was also contributed to the food. He also had a heart murmur, and he became disoriented because of the lack of nutrition in your food. As a result of finding all this out, I now have an outrageous vet bill for my female, I had to put a dog down before his time, and I am going to have more vet bills for the female and her pups. I cannot get rid of the pups because of their medical condition which was a result of them getting her milk.

Just had to have our dog, Boston Terrier, Durty, put to sleep on Wednesday, November 10th, 2010. Cancer, liver failure, kidney failure, he started losing weight,throwing up, could not keep food or even water down, thirsty all the time, diarrhea , projectile diarrhea, on and on and on. He has always eaten Ol' Roy dog food and nothing else. I truly believe this killed our dog.

Two years ago, we had to have our other Boston Terrier, Sissy, put to sleep. Cancer! What are the chances that both our dogs had cancer? It is really hard for me and can hardly even type about it right now but just want to say please, please, please do not feed this to your pets. It will make them extremely ill and even cause their death! My daughter came across all the complaints and felt I had to say something! Cannot believe these Ol' Roy products can still be on the shelf! We love and miss you, Sissy and Durty! So sorry!

I bought Ol' Roy red bag 8Lb. 05388-67144 four days ago. My dog started puking 3 days ago. Now blood is oozing out of his rear. He is at the hospital on fluids and antibiotic. It will cost a fortune, when we barely have enough money to feed ourselves. There is no active recall on this bag, but there is an old one, the number I gave doesn't change, they said so. I thought I had a bad bag but they tell me that it's not got an active recall. I'm thinking it should have, though I wonder if any others are having this kind of problem.

My daughter has been feeding her dog Ol' Roy for the past month and her dog has lost weight ever since she started feeding it to him. She found out today that it is mostly just filler, and will be immediately changing his diet to another brand of dog food. How can companies do such a disservice to animals? It resulted to a major weight loss of her husky.

We almost gave our Cane Corso kidney failure because we combined her expensive Nutro food with Ol' Roy in an attempt to save some money. Almost overnight, she became lethargic. She wouldn't eat much and would graze on grass (which is terrible for dogs' stomachs). We thought it was due to aging. But then, she started chewing up the carpet. She did it a few times and I knew there was something wrong. A 7-year old dog doesn't start a behavioral problem that she's never had. We took her to the vet and her blood work displayed kidney function problems. Luckily, it wasn't severe. I believe it's only because we were mixing Ol' Roy with decent food. Literally, 24 hours after stopping the Ol' Roy (and meds from the vet), our dog was spunkier than we had seen her all year. Please don't try to save cash and buy this junk. Your sweet pups will suffer.

I'm on a fixed income so I bought a bag of Ol Roy dog food for my cocker spaniel. She ate it for a month. I got up like I usually do in the morning to take her outside. She was on her side in her cage blood coming out her mouth. Her eyes were at a stare. She never moved. She was still breathing until I told her I was there and petted her and then she took her last breath. My heart is so broken. She was my baby girl. Why would you still have Ol Roy on the shelves? My heart goes out to the ones that lost their pets because of Ol Roy. I miss my Lacey and I blame myself for buying cheap dog food. Get rid of Ol Roy! My Lacey died 9-6-2010.

I started feeding my beautiful Boxer with Ol Roy savory beef flavor canned food about three weeks ago because it was cheaper. I noticed she started sleeping more and it seemed like she was not feeling well. She had more gas than she used to. Yesterday, she looked really pale and this morning has been urinating with blood. I took her over to vet who did some testing. She's now treating her with Prednisone. I'm not sure why the vet did not start her on IV fluids. My Boxer is not drinking much water. Anyway now she is lying next to me, heavy labored breathing, and I'm trying to give her fluids by mouth. I already have from today incurred a $650.00 payment. I feel very sad for my dog and all because of trying to buy cheaper food.

I gave my dog a munchie bone last friday. She actually swallowed it whole. She became very sick over the weekend. She had a blockage. Symptoms are difficulty in breathing, distended tummy, not able to eat or drink, no stool production or urine output. I called the 1-800 number and spoke with a customer service representative. She said that the product would break down and the dog should be better in a couple of days.

Death. I had to have my dog put to sleep humanely on 08-02-10. The munchie bones have a thick consistency and when swallowed whole and even chewed up will not break down as easily as the CS rep said it would. Please do not give your dogs this product.

We switched dog food because we have three dogs now (my husbands aunt past away so we now have hers) due to money. We purchased Ol Roy and within 24 hrs, my baby-Lucille got very sick & now the aunt's dog is sick. I took Lucille to the vet yesterday which cost money I really didn't have. Then I found out that you were in the recall of dog food. Do you reimburse on what is being spending at the vets office? Neither one was sick till we switched dog foods. We have can & dry. Going to take back to Walmart where we purchased it.

Ol'Roy dog treat beef jerky came in a can and now it changed into a bag. And that is all right, but I wish the jerky strips were the same thin and long ones like the canned product. My dog would love to get back that treat like it was before the change. Any coupons sent will be used for treats and I only rather buy Ol'Roy treats. Bindi eats human food/dry Iams. No physical damage or anything like it. The excitement of the treat giving has been down since the change. I am not on puparoni and I rather have Ol'Roy back in the can.

This is the second bag of 40lb Ol' Roy Krunchy Bites & Bones that I have bought from my local Walmart that has the whole bottom of dog food covered in mold. I got about 3/4 of the way through a bag last month and it had mold in it, so I though I did something wrong or it was a fluke. Well this is the second bag of the same brand and size and it is the same way. I have tried calling the 800 number but it is a holiday so they are closed. I am heading to Walmart right now to see what they have to say. I am very disappointed and will be switching brands now. I thought Ol' Roy should know so they could maybe make a recall or something before a lot of dogs get sick.

I noticed when shopping at Wal-mart, a bag of Ol'Roy Crunchy Bone Minis. You guys can't seem to get your grammar right. You have printed on the bag, "Crunchy Bone Mini's". If you attended grammar school, you might have learned that you don't put an apostrophe on a word that is plural. You use an apostrophe is you're showing possession or joining two words together. Please correct this on your product, it's embarrassing.

I have a three year old chihuahua, that is usually in great health. Very spunky, loves to play, and loves to go bye-bye. Money has been a little tight so I had switched his food. He eats dry food but I also feed him canned food everyday. I bought him Ol' Roy cuts chicken and rice, and the beef and liver. I noticed the last three days, something has been wrong with him. He has been laying around sleeping most of the day, no energy, and doesn't even want to go bye-bye, this is not at all normal. Usually, he is first at the door if he even thinks I am going any where. Last night he threw up chunks of food like it never even digested.

This morning I picked up his plate to give him fresh can food cause it gets hard and gross, when I rinsed off the remaining food on the plate there was white little maggots, a lot of them. This was the beef and liver one. I feel so terrible because it looked okay when I put it out for him. I always put the can in the fridge right after. I am deeply concerned because if it is doing this on the plate I can't imagine what is happening to his insides. I don't have the money to take him to the vet right now, so I don't know what to do. I will have to borrow the money somewhere because this dog is like my child, and he is really sick.

They told me to take him to the ER, it will be $150 just to be seen, then they have to run tests. They won't do a payment plan it has to be paid at the time of service. I don't know what to do. My little guy has just been laying there for three days, his nose is warm, his tongue is hot, his body is hot. I am freaking out because this is my son. I cherish this dog, he is my shadow. To see him suffering is tearing me up. I am trying to borrow money from everyone I know. I don't think Ol' Roy should be allowed to put this poison on the shelf. No amount of money could ever replace a loved one.

Ol'Roy Meaty Loaf Savory Beef Flavor. The formulation has been changed! Originally, the primary ingredients were beef, chicken and poultry then meat by-products. Now it's all junk! Primary ingredients are now chicken by-products, etc. More junk being sold to the American people.

My Cocker Spaniel had 2 weeks of vomiting and diarrhea. This all coincided with the purchase and use of this dog food! As soon as I switched food the dog got better.

I switch dog food over to Ol' Roy dry dog food in the red bag. 4 large dogs on an arc-rage, keeping costs low seemed like an important idea. Within 4 days of switching over, all of our dogs have severe diarrhea. Our 2 yr old border collie who has been the picture of health all of his life has lost control of his bowel and this disgusting red slime oozes out of his behind intermittently. Not only is he dehydrated and lethargic, but he is humiliated and I am disgusted!

I bought an Ol Roy dog food. When I got halfway of the bag, the dog food looked like it was moldy so I had to throw it out. I don't think it was right because this dog food is not that cheap.

Our eight year old Cockapoo became very ill. He could barely walk, he was crying in pain and wanted to drink a lot of water which he could not keep down, he had a very hot nose and was too weak to walk. I rushed him to the Pet emergency room late on a Sunday night. They started IV's and took a lot of blood test, just to find out that he had pancreatitis, they wasn't sure how bad it was, so they kept him, the next day he steadily got worse to the point we had to put him to sleep.

The Vet held no hope for surgery, his pancreas was falling apart. We miss our little Jojo terribly. The Vet did mention that Ol Roy is not good dog. food. So be ware, it is better to ask your veterinarian what kind of food to feed your beloved pet. We wish we had of known that sooner, so anyone reading this, please take care and be careful what you feed your pets, and table scraps are a no no. They told us a dog can have green beans and carrots, chicken and rice only.

Our dog had to be put to sleep because he was in agonizing pain, the morphine they gave him wasn't helping. We ended up spending $769.00 plus $197.00 for cremation and we are now without our dear Jojo. Hope this helps others to be ware of OL Roy dog foods.

May 19, 2010, my Chihuahua woke me up as usual. He was completely normal and well. The morning routine, I fed him Ol' Roy Cuts and Gravy, Chicken with Rice. Within minutes, he became violently ill, vomiting, staggering, and collapsed into seizure. This has never happened before! I took him immediately to the vet. His body temperature was down to 94. Once checked in at the vet, the explosive diarrhea started. Onto IV fluids and under a heat lamp. All blood work came back normal not parvo either. Vet said he seemed like he had been poisoned. I have nothing in my house toxic (besides the dog food, now I know)! He doesn't go outside. My dog didn't survive, he passed at about 1:00 p.m. the same day. Our family is devastated! My dog died within hours of consuming the food. $300 in veterinary costs, and a 12-pack of canned food ($7), and a 50-lb bag of dry food ($16).

I bought Ol' Roy canned dog food (Hearty Cuts) at Walmart 5 days ago and my dog has had diarrhea. After searching this brand out, I found out that my dog is not the only one. This morning he had Pepto-Bismol, rice and chicken broth for breakfast. Poor guy. Do not feed your dog Ol' Roy! So far, my 20 lb Puggle dog has had diarrhea for 4 days now. He ate it for 3 days. We have not yet decided to take him to the vet.

Well, my dog, a 21 month old Sharpei has an insurance plan through Banfield. We went in last month for his routine shots and blood work. He came out perfectly healthy other than needing his ears cleaned. Then this month, his plan renewed so we changed his plan to include dental so later in life we didn't have problems with his teeth. So, we scheduled his appointment. He went in and before they put him under they do blood work to check and make sure they are healthy for anesthesia. His kidney test came back elevated. The doctor called and said has he been eating any lunch meat or change in food. I said, well, yes this time around we went cheap and bought Ol Roy. She said that could cause it due to the ingredients.

So we now have to have his blood rechecked again next month. I wondered how a perfectly healthy dog a month ago could change, so I investigated the dog food and if it wasn't for tons more complaints like myself, I wouldn't believe it. But obviously there is a problem. I called the company today May 10, 2010 and she said I have been working here for many years and never heard of such a thing. Why would your vet do blood work on a healthy animal anyway? I was amazed obviously she is not a responsible pet owner who takes her animal in for routine exams. If that was the case, she would know before any cleanings in which the animal has to be put to sleep they make sure they are healthy. As for as damages we are out vet costs. The price of the dog food, and possibly irreversible kidney damage all because we picked Ol Roy dog food. The dog will eventually succumb to kidney failure if it gets bad. As of right now we should have caught the issue early but a dog does not deserve this nor does any animal.

We operate a wildlife rehabilitation center and we go through 100 to 150 lbs of dog food a week. We went back to Old'Roy dog food because the cost from Walmart was cheaper. We are a non-profit and we try to get the most out of our donations. Every story on this page we can relate to with our wildlife. We had raccoons dying. Young or old it did not matter. Lost of fur, matty eyes, sneezes, diarrhea, vomiting, staggering, lethargic, convulsions then death.

We were going back and forth to the vet wondering maybe what we did wrong and how to stop the sickness. Then we saw these stories and stop the Old'Roy dog food. The animals got better. Their stools got harder and the babies started playing again. Everyone started playing again. Seven raccoons were not so lucky and died. They did not have a chance to be released back out into the wild. It broke our hearts. This is a very painful death for all animals including wildlife.

Old'Roy needs to be taken off the market immediately before more of our loved ones and our wildlife die. Please stop using this dog food for your animals. We burned 150lbs of Old'Roy dog food so it would not get into our natural habitat. How much of this dog food is killing our wildlife and getting into our natural habitat. We work hard to save orphan and injured wildlife just to have Walmart sell a deadly product that kills our household pets and our wildlife.

I wouldn't have truly blamed my dogs illness on this dog food until I saw so many complaints with owners of other dogs with the very same symptoms. I had to put my dog to sleep eventually after fours days of watching him vomit, urinate on himself because he was no longer able to walk, vomiting, retching and drooling. Since he was 13 years old, he just couldn't take it. I believe the dog food put him over the edge due to his age. I am not sure what ingredients or why, but possibly the additives and cheap ingredients of the dog food irritated his digestive symptom and either gave him renal failure or congenital heart failure.

I killed my dog by purchasing some lower end dog food because of our finances and needs to try and trim expenses just for the one shopping trip. Ol Roy was $18 for a big 45# bag. Our other dog was much younger at four years of age and she seemed to be okay however she is still sleeping under a tree in the corner of the yard for some reason. I think she feels sick but is going to recover.

I don't think consumers should stop here. If indeed this dog food is the source of problems all of these people are noting, we need to file a suit and take charge. The food needs to be changed or removed from the market immediately. Cheap or not, it is still a profit for the company making the pet food brand. I would be glad to join anyone who would like to form a group and find out for sure if this dog food is suitable for pet consumption.

I gave my 1yr old wiener dog an Ol'Roy munchie bone one evening. The next morning, he was lethargic and had matted eyes. I ran him to our vet where he stayed all day on IV's. He will be on medicine for the next week. I pray he snaps out of it. Why is Ol'Roy still out on the market?

This dog food is toxic to all our pets, both dog and cat. Our cat lost a ton of fur, have matty eyes and is lethargic. The dog sneezes a lot, matty eyes, patchy skin, loss of fur, itchy all the time. We were treating them as separate issues. Seemed like allergies. Took cat to vet. Vet said it seemed like a food allergy. But the cat food had been the same for years. Vet sent cat home with steroids and a 'watch and see'.

That same night, I caught the cat eating the dog food (Old Roy) and that's when we put it all together. It's the food! The Old Roy dog food was the only commonality between the dog and cat. Got rid of it. Immediately threw the whole bag away. Ever since then both the dog and the cat are like new animals. All fur, matty eye, and other heath issues have disappeared. It doesn't take much thinking to figure out the dog food was the culprit. The consequences are vet bills ($400), steroid prescriptions ($150), and my sanity, which is priceless, trying to figure out why my pets are sick.

I have 2 dogs, and we started feeding them Ol Roy in the last month. Both dogs have become very sick from this food. My oldest dog is 13, and is vomiting, cannot walk, eyes are twitching, slobbering, and having seizures. Our younger dog had the same issue about 3 weeks ago, and it took about 48 hours to clear up. No more Ol Roy in this house!

My older, outside dog had been turning his nose up at the Ol' Roy Soft & Moist Beef Flavor dog food. So when I had a few crumbs of some fried chicken batter on a Saturday evening, I mixed it with the dog food to encourage him to eat. He did, and I certainly regretted it. Within minutes, he was staggering; he would stop and sway on his feet, acting as if he would vomit. He seemed somewhat better Sunday morning.

When I took him to the vet on Monday morning (February 22, 2010) after he again refused to eat, he was very dehydrated and had diarrhea. After several IVs and over $300 worth of vet bills, Mac came home and continued to refuse the Ol' Roy. A complete blood panel done by the vet showed his organs to be working properly and not to be the source of his dehydration. The vet said his stomach might be finicky for a while, so I switched to canned food.

Yesterday morning, 3/2/2010, I was out of the canned food and gave him 1.5 packets of the Soft & Moist Ol' Roy. He was in good spirits when he came up and ate well, and I was feeling encouraged that he was improving. Yesterday evening when I went home, I had gotten canned food again and went out to feed Mac. He walked up slowly and unsteadily and refused to even approach his dinner. I checked on him several times, and eventually, he must have felt well enough to eat his non-Ol' Roy dinner since it was gone this morning.

I had mentioned to my vet the possibility of a repeat occurrence of bad dog food (like in 2007) and asked about testing the packets I have left of the Ol' Roy. But apparently, any cost of testing would come out of my own pocket.

I just got a bag of Ol' Roy healthy weight management and fed it to my 7-year-old boxer. This is the first time I have fed him Ol' Roy and will be the last time. After just one meal, the night before, he had the worst gas he has ever had. Then this morning he woke with extreme sneezing which he never does. Then about an hour later, he had about a two-minute seizure which he has never had one. Don't buy Ol' Roy food!

I bought a second bag of this dog food, and upon opening it, the food inside was quite different than the original bag. I fed it to the puppy, thinking the content to be the same, only shaped different and of a different color. My puppy got very sick and vomited. His stool was very runny, and he had no normal puppy energy. I tried to return the dog food, but the store only took a report and said someone from the dog food distributor would call. That was on February 11, 2010, two weeks ago.

I had to switch to Ol' Roy dog food recently. My dogs have eaten it for about two weeks. They are so very sick and have awful yeast infections. Note, the 600.00 vet bill and that does not include the meds. I am told it will take them four awful, painful months to get back to normal. If they do. Very concerned about this brand of food! his has already cost me upwards of 1100 dollars.

On 1/27/2010, we purchased a #40 bag of Old Roy Kibbles, Chunks & Chews for our dog. We have never tried it before. She is older but in very good shape. I started feeding the new food on 1/29/10. It is now 2/02/10 and she is down, no muscle control and can't stand. I have been in the livestock business for years and she appears to be suffering from some type of poisoning. Is this food on a recall list? Wal-Mart has a habit of not pulling bad products. The SKU is 681131 864534. Thank you.

Both of our dogs are sick and after reading about Old Roy... I would not recommend it... heading the the store now to buy a safer product. This is dangerous and ruining my carpets.

I unfortunately fed my dogs the Ol' Roy crap for too long. We had a perfectly healthy blue heeler. She was ONLY 5. I had her put to sleep today because she had acute renal failure. I couldnt understand what had happened or how she could have gotten it, but now I do. We loved that girl with all our hearts. She was the best "child" we had. Yea, she wasn't just a dog, she was our baby!!

I adopted a 3 yr old dog from the pound with a clean bill of health. Because we already had a dog, it got exensive to kieep buying the premium foods so we switched over to Ol Roy dry dog food (significantly cheper) . Wthin a couple months the do we had for years got overweight and lethargic and the other one started having seizures.

I have 4 dogs, who have been eating ol roy kibbles & chuncks. I purchased 2 bags on Sunday 09/06/09 1-40lb & 1-20lb. Shortly after eating their first bowl 2 of my lg. dogs ( Lab mix & bull mastiff) began vomitting & severe diarrhea. My dogs are very lithogic. I'm a single parent and only work part time. I can't afford to go out and buy another brand of food until next month. I'm very worried for my dogs as I can't bring them to the vet. I feel that I should be reinburst the money that I spent on product. my sons carpet in his bedroom is d[estroyed].

I've dabbled with changing my dogs' food off and on when finances become tough, etc. and go between name brand dry food and whatever's cheapest [when I'm strapped for cash]. One of my dogs is almost 1-1/2 and the other's almost 6mos and they RARELY have any sort of upset stomach, etc. I started giving them the Ol' Roy Complete Nutrition (red bag) food the other day, it was about 20lbs for $8 or something like that. I think it's been 3 days now and my puppy, who NEVER gets sick, woke me up this morning with nasty coming out of BOTH ends! She puked about 5 different times and had the nasty mushy crap and then water coming from the rear. The older dog is fine and hasn't acted any different however the puppy can eat ANYTHING without getting sick and got this!

Unfortunately I don't have the extra $ to get a different kind of dog food at the moment but will definitely switch to Blue Buffalo as soon as I possibly can! DON'T GET THIS CHEAP CRAP! I'd suggest getting ANYTHING that's $1-3 more a bag that's NOT Ol' Roy - you AND your pet will be happier!

We got ol'roys pet food and treats for our dogs and they seem to love it. However, I noticed that the food has hair/fur in it. It was in every kibble of dry dog food, and I am worried about the health of the dogs (not just mine, but those who buy the same dog food).

I bought a large bag of dog biscuits and I found a bunch of spider webs in it and a very large grey spider. It really "grossed" me out and I threw the bag away. I will not buy the Ol' Roy products anymore and I will discourage anyone else from buying the product as well.

I have been giving my Pit Bulls the Ol Roy 5 flavor treats for some time with no problems. Now, after about 2 weeks or so, I have 8 out of 11 with such a bad case of diarrhea that it is so hard to keep up after them. I have never had anything like this happen. These animals are not just pets, they are family. Now they are not as playful and they are not eating like they should. This is so not right, but what can a simple person do?

On June 6, 2009 at 8:00 pm, I gave my dog, an English Bull Terrier, an Ol' Roy Munchy Bone. Thirty minutes later, she was having a mild stomach cramps and small bouts of loose bowels. By 9:00 pm, she was acting okay, so I put her to bed and thought all was well.

The next morning at 7:00 am, we were awakened by sounds our dog was making in her crate and rushed to see what was wrong. She was vomiting and had diarrhea all over her and the crate. We rushed her outside and cleaned her up and threw the bedding and toys from her crate into the wash. Not 15 minutes later, she was cramping and had a milky white substance shooting 3 feet out of her rear end that curdled as soon as it hit the ground. Then she tired to come get some comfort, and it happened again; this time, with more pain and she started screaming and shooting the milky diarrhea again. I grabbed her up and yelled to my husband that we have to get to the emergency vet now. She had lost so much fluid and was in pain.

As soon as we walked in the door to the emergency vet, they grabbed her from me and put her on IVs and were taking x-rays. The x-rays showed the Munchy Bone in her stomach not broken down or dissolving at all. They kept her until Monday evening, and even then, they were not 100% sure they should. But by Monday evening, it looked like the bone was finally starting to break down and move through her system. So after 5 x-rays, 2 days of IVs, a test on her kidneys (checking for possible melamine damage), and medications, we have a bill of $1,068.00.

My dog was doing better, but she wasn't 100%. Then 10 days after she ate the bone, she passed what was left of it in her stool. It was still in big pieces 1 1/2- to 2-inch pieces and as hard as plastic. But she is feeling much better, now that it is out of her. Another thing that we found troubling was her bedding and toys that she had thrown up on and soiled. I have washed them 8 times and soaked them in bleach 24 hours, and they will not come clean. They are covered in a plastic-like residue that nothing will get out.

I went to Wal-Mart to try to get my vet bill taken care of, and they have been very kind and helpful. But the Ol' Roy people are trying to blame it on food allergies or her regular dog food, thinking she was on another brand of dog food. But for two weeks before the incident and still is a homemade diet, because I don't trust bagged dog food. But they are saying they will look into it and get back to me.

On the 17th he went back to the vet and it was recommended that he be put on IV. Blood and and other tests were taken and results showed that his kidneys were or was shut down. Pon stayed at the vet thru the week and when the vet went to check on him around 10pm on the 21st of Feb to give him another IV, Pon was found to have passed on. The pic shows Pon on the 9th of Feb after getting groomed. The ladies at Petsmart were Shocked to find out that he had died so suddenly.

The reason that these 3 different companies were contacted is that we had been using Dad's Ol Roy Kibbles Chunks & Chews as his main food. Del Monte was his canned food that would be mixed with his nightly meal. Purina Krunchy Bits & Bones would be added as a mix with either the canned or Kibbles as a veriety.

Our vet bills totaled around $500 with the antibiotics, blood tests and private care. The bill from our vet is not what matters. What matters is that someway Pon's death could help this from happening to other pets and the pet food makers need to be held accountable for their actions and quit making fouled food products.

I understand that Ol Roy is a marketing company that gets their products from the cheapest source. Significantly, in the Chinese melamine contamination problem their biscuits were pulled off the Wal-Mart shelves. I have not contacted the company since having spent my career in research in industry I know the kind of response to expect.

We have always fed my 1 yr old dog science diet, or Iams. Recently switched to Ol Roy about 1 month ago to save a buck. She started acting very lethargic at first. She was sleeping all the time. This is NOT her character at all! Just yesterday her stomach was bloating and she began to vomit 2-3 times. I got her to the vet, they gave her an anti nausea with anti gas injection. She still vomited 2 more times once we were home.

About 2 hrs later she began to foam at the mouth and shake. We went to let her outside and her hind legs kept giving out on her and she lost control of her bladder in the house, which she never does. She did make it through the night last night, she is extremely week. There is nothing else that she has eaten this last month other than Ol Roy. She is in a contained yard with nothing else that she could consume. I am convinced it is the food!

Spent $100 on vet bills yesterday $100 on carpet cleaner and steamer for the car and the house.

We have recently changed to Old Roy Dinner Bites. Both of our dogs have become sick. Our 4 yr. old lab is doing better now; but our 7 yr. old golden retriever is deathly sick. He has been throwing up for days and has diarrhea. He is now dry heaving, breathing heavily and cannot lay down or sit due to the pain in his stomach. It's unimaginable to believe that a manufacturer would continue to sell such a bad product that they know is causing animals so much pain and agony.

We have taken Rocket to the vet twice so far. He has pancreatitis. His pain is so bad they are giving him pain injections and keeping him on iv fluids. The cost so far is over $600.00. I went to Wal-Mart to buy new dog food that is low fat and high protein. I saw an employee on the dog food aisle and asked about the Old Roy Dinner Bites and he said it had been removed for repackaging. I've never heard of a retailer pulling merchandise until it's sold out! The retailers and manufacturers should all be held liable for allowing a product to be sold.

I fed my dog nothing but Pedigree and it started getting to expensive so my sister recommended me to switch to ol roy. And as soon as I did my dog started laying around, having diarrea and just not acting like herself then I hear about this recall and was furious. Because I saved my dog from the pound they were going to put her down because she was underweight. So I got her back to health and then tried to save alittle bit of money and then she gets sick from eating this dog food I had to frequently take her out because she was having accidents in the house and ruining stuff. She got to the point where she acted so sick she couldnt even hold her bladder. She is doing better now but that is not the point I went and bought her different dog food.

She was just sick and that was very uncalled for. Its sad that she had to cope with that because of a dog food. Diarrea is just not fun to cope with as human let alone a dog..

I opened a bag of Ole Roy Dinner Rounds and found a cockroach inside. I was horrified to know that I have been feeding my dogs this bag for about two weeks prior to opening it. The cockroach was obviously on the bottom because when I emptied it, the cockroach was on the top. I wanted to tell you about it before anyone else complained.

My dogs had terrible reactions after been fed food from this particular bag.

The only dog food I fed my 8 year old german shepard is ol roy can food, all flavors, and kibbles and chunks dry food. My dog was 100% healthy and in the space of one day, became deathly ill, throwing up for hours. We took him that night to an animal emergency room where we were told it was kidney failure and he passed away the same day he became ill. Approx. 2 mos later, I learned about the recall of ol roy can dog food. Too late for my dog. I have been given the run around by Walmart. Please tell me what to do.

Our eight year old dog, a valued and loved member of our family passed away due to poisoned dog food.

i opened my bad of dog food and there were 2 dead moths in it. i use [this] dog food all the time and this is the first time i every got this.

i would not feed my dog that bag of food as it may have been contaminated by the dead noths

Our dog got very sick in Dec. 2007 & vet checked for worms to get clean results. Vomiting, thirsty constantly, dry heaves after few days of not eating. Just laid around, Then she got better. Now we had her stool checked again for same symptoms. No worms or parasites again. The one thing we do know is the first time she was eating Alpo prime cuts in the can. Now she's eating Ol'Roy complete nutrition & the bag I got matches no#s listed on recall site. She is 4 yr. old mixed breed. How can I keep affording to take her to vets & get no answers to whats going on? I'm on disability. She has been sick both times we fed her these brands not knowing they we're on the recall list.

She still hasn't ever really bounced back to herself. Twice I've had her to the vet & they dewromed her. I can't afford to keep having her tested on my income. How can I find out if she has kidney damage or any internal damage from these dog foods? I don't wanna loose my dog. She's like our child.

I fed my dogs Old Roy about 8 years ago. I had my Female Mollie on old Roy since she was a puppy. One time we found her in her crate having a seizure, she had thrown-up all over herself and her crate, she could not walk straight for almost 2 days. She was only about 3mo old too. This did pass and we never thought it was the food, but when she had a litter of pups they all came out deformed and many with their insides out, it was very disturbing. All died.

We decided to change her to Science Diet. She had 3 litters since then, and all pups are beautiful pups, with Zero health problems. But while she was on Old Roy she did OFA in her hips which are great for a Saint Bernard. She OFA'd GOOD. She is now about 9 years old and in Great shape and hips still 100%. So I think Old Roy can affect other dogs in different ways. It did not hurt our dogs overall health, but was terrible for the pups and may have caused that seizure when she was little. But Science Diet has been a Blessing. Expensive but worth the health of my dog.

it has came to my attention that olroy will not have the lamb and rice brand any more.. please donot discontinue this. it is the only kind of dogfood that my dog can eat. all others have made her sick. and it is about the only one that doesnt have corn as the first ingriedant. so please dont get rid of the lamb and rice!

I am seeking reimbursement for veterinary bills in the amount of $140.00. My dog ate recalled dog food (Ol Roy High Performance) from the contaminated batch and had diarrhea, bloody diarrhea, vomiting, and dehydration.

My carpet was soiled from my dog's repeated inability to hold her loose stool. I incurred veterinary bills.
