Ol Roy Pet Foods

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 legseverywhere 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 itOl 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 food4 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 & rice, and the beef & 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 magots, alot of them. This was the beef & 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 cause 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 some where cause this dog is like my child, and he is really sick.

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 cost's low seemed like an important Idea. with in 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!

bought ol'roy dog food. when i got to the halway of the bag the dog food looked like it was moldy so I had to throw it out. i dont think it was right cause this dog food is not that cheap

Our eight year old Cockapoo became very ill, He could barley walk, he was crying in pain and wanted to drink alot 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 alot of blood test, just to find out that he had pancritis, they wasn't sure how bad it was, so they kept him, the next day he steadly 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 veteranrian 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.

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 buncha of spider webs in it and a very large grey spider. It really grossesd 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 just 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 havig mild stomach cramps and small bouts of loose bowels. By 9:00 p.m she was acting okay so I put her to bed and thought all was well. The next morning at 7:00 a.m 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 rush her outside and clean 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 grab her up and yell 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 walk in the door to the emergency Vet they grab her from me and put her on IV's and are 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 IV's, a test on her kidneys(checking for possible melamine damage), 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 WalMart 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.

My 8 year old female collie loved Ol'Roy food she was eating the Hearty Strips in gravy with Turkey & Bacon and was fine when all the sudden she started the diarrhea and throwing up, loss of apatite and would not walk I had her to the Vet. three times and they told me her liver, kidneys, and pankress were all out of weak and she was dieing. After two weeks of pills, and me having to give her injections due to she could not keep anything down she is starting to come back but she refuses to eat the Turkey & Bacon! I feel she knows that is what made her sick and now will not touch it!!

My Boston Terrier was a very healthy dog until I feed him old roy wet packets and chicken treats from Walmart. he lost his appetite and started to throw up.I took him to the vet and had many blood tests done on him . His ALT was 3376 which is off the charts. The vet said his liver was damaged and then he went from 38 lbs to 26 lbs in a short time. I continued to get more and more blood work done and x-rays and nothing helped him at all. I believe he was poisoned from the dog food. he passed away .

My dog died last week.

since ol roy has came out with the new bags of ol roy kibbles chunks and chews my dogs will not eat it because it is mainly the red round peices and the just seem not to like them at all it would be nice if there was less red peices and more of the other my dogs ate all there food when the bags of food were that way i was wondering why the have more red peices in them now

none just just making the bags of dog food the way they were

At one point we had 4 sick adult dogs and 10 sick puppies. It was a horrid experience to watch our dogs so ill and to watch 3 of our puppies die.

For the past eleven years my parents have been feeding a whole bunch of racoons in the back of their apartment. They have been buying Ole Roy dog food the whole time that they hav been feeding the coons. We buy the big red bags and we noticed a few weeks ago that we pay almost twenty dollars for under half a bag of dog food. The bags always look full but when we open it up its all air. We buy two bags of your dog food every other week. It is very agervating to be spending as much money as we are spending for nothing but air. We are talking about switching foods because yall's is just a waste of money all of a sudden.

My wife and I had 2 registered Labs. These dogs are basicly our children. About 2 weeks ago, we bought some Ol Roy dog treats. The ones that look like slim jims. Without knowing it, the entire can was full of maggots. We have been feeding them to both of our dogs. Our 10 month old lab got really sick and just didn't want to get up. We took the treats back to Wal-Mart and the manager filed a complaint with Ol Roy on Friday afternoon, and Saturday moring, we found our 6 year old lab dead.

I am having the vet test the dog treats and do an autopsy on the dog.

I recently lost my job so we went back to using Old Roy dog food lamb & rice at first but then we switched to complete nutrition & within the end of the day all 6 dogs had horrid diarreah. I have one boy who had a grand mal siezure & the rest are all pretty much sleeping all day long.

I don't know what to do, when I talked to the manager at the Quilceda WalMart he said the food was perfectly fine & that maybe my dogs had gotten in to something, but one of my dogs had puppies so she's on a hamburger & rice diet as well as the pups now. None of them have gotten sick or diarreah.

That was almost 2 weeks ago... they still have diarreah but aren't throwing up or having seizures any more. I switched foods within the next day but now I'm worried that it may be too late, the damage may already be done. I've got the bag & noticed that there is a sticky grainy substance all over it which had never been there before.

What worries me is the fact that I found recalled food well after 6 months of the recall still on thier store shelves...there answer was Oops we must've missed that. You think??? I'm going to take back the food but now I know to save some for testing. If they don't want to believe me I'll bring them a bag of poop or a couple poopy dogs. I just thought it upset thier tummies, now I guess I better get them into be seen. I have 2 senior dogs who've been acting funny as well out of the 6.

My vet bill is going to cost me 600.00 right in the door just for a visit & a blood panel, so someone is going to pay for this.

I have a 12 year old dog. Her name is Lady. She has been on old roy products half her life. Hard food, dinner rounds, bones all old roy. I recently took her to the vet that discovered a heart murmur and kidney stones. The stones have been there awhile. I told him the food she was on and he said that could have done it. She now faces kidney surgery costing almost $700 and will be on heart meds the rest of her life. I am very upset. How can old roy do this to so many dogs? I only recently heard about the recalls from the vet.

We have had rottweilers and we did breed them up until October of 2007. We started feeding them Ol Roy over a year ago and trusted it. We recommended Ol Roy to all our customers who bought puppies from us. But in Oct we noticed that our dogs was losing their energy and not being as active. We fed them on Nov 10th, 2007, in the morning and we let them outside in our fenced yard for a few hours and when we went to bring them back in we found our male rott on his side dead. He was bloated and he vomited blood the day before and had bad diarrhea. They were all vet checked and all had their shots up to date. They had no worms and he was only 4 years old and a wonderful stud our 2 females who died two days later. They were very thirsty all the time. One female was only 3 and the other one was only 4 and also they was weak.

Our daughter's chihuahua died. She lost all her weight and when I called the vet that's when I was told the dog food could of caused this. We are not very happy about this since our rotts were for breeding and they didn't get to live a full life and they were healthy until we started the Ol Roy. We have 2 English mastiffs that had lost all their weight and we were able to save them and since we switched dog food they are getting their strength back and are acting like themselves.

Our rotts were our income, our litters were sold and deposits were made before they were born not to mention they were like our kids and our protectors. I want everyone to know what this dog food can cause. I never felt so bad since they was part of our family and we lost them one right after another and nothing we could of done to stop this since we had no idea what this dog food was capable of. My uncle was also feeding this to his shepard and rott, but his dogs were never around my dogs and his shepard dies as well. The rott is still recovering.

Our damages are that we have this a big empty void in our lives and a very heart broken little girl. All our children where affected from the lost of our loved pets and our breeding business is now gone. We have told our friends and called people that we have sold puppies to to let them know to switch to a different brand of dog food until an investigation is done on the Ol Roy brands of dog food. We would hate to see them lose their family pets.

Our dog, Walker-T, became ill in February had to be put to sleep, February 2007. We went to feed him and he could not stand on his front two legs. The only thing he could do is bat his eyelashes. He was not showing signs of illness before this. He was eating Ol'Roy wet food. We have saved these samples. We took Walker-T to the Veterinarian and we had to make a decision to put him to sleep. We did not know about the MenuFoods recall until our cat became ill.

Our tabby cat, Tom, became ill March 2007. He would not eat and drank all the time. He became very ill. We took him to the vet and the doctor said his kidneys were failing. He stayed 2 nights in the hospital resulting in an exhorbitant hospital bill of $1200.00. He came home and we took him to our family vet. The family vet put him on an IV for 4 more days. He had to receive IV pushes for 4 days. He was also put on a diuretic pill twice a day.

We have called MenuFoods 3 times, but we have heard nothing from them. We really don't know how to go about submitting our claim. Our local newspaper, The Augusta Chronicle, featured a story about several local pets becoming ill and our cat was in the newspaper.

Tom does not have full kidney function. He has to eat prescription food only (Hill's K/D food) for life. It is $1.29 a can. The dry food is $14.00 a bag. It can only be purchased at a pet store on the other side of town. He is not as active as he was before. We have suffered financial hardship during Tom's time of need as well.

I think the contamination of pet food is still going on. We had a beautiful Husky, perfectly healthy until about 3 weeks ago when we noticed she was moping around like she didn't want to move, then drinking an incredible amount of water. We called vet they told us to watch her and if we noticed any signs to bring her in. Well, yesterday, 11/25/07, we noticed her getting sick but on Sunday the vet is closed. We thought maybe she ate grass but then that night we kept hearing her howl and when we went out to check on her she was lying on the ground like she couldn't move. I told my husband that's how she had been the last couple days - lying around like she couldn't move, but then would,so you would think when she got up slow moving, she had just lied down to long.

But now it all makes sense. When I went out to the yard to get her she was lying there howling and I called for my husband because something was wrong. I noticed shallow breathing and called the vet, but had to get them to call me back as this was an emergency now. She asked where I was when I told her what was going on. She said to bring her in because, "I'm on my way there." We rushed her to the vet and she started foaming on her mouth then gasping for air. Then as we were just ready to turn into the Vet she died in my arms.

I talked to the Vet, wanting answers, and as soon as I said it could've been a stroke or a heart attack she asked what she ate and I replied OlRoys. She turned her head like ahe couldn't look at me and then it hit me - the food!I I asked how we could tell if it was the food and she said there wasn't any way we could get answers. We left I upset and I stayed up all night wondering how a perfectly loving pet was gone. I called the Vet in the morning to get an Autopsy. I didn't care what it cost - I wanted answers. Then when I called to make the arrangements, I told him I wanted to know if it was food related. He told me I was wasting time and money. There was slim chance that it would show up saying something to do wth their cells in their body making it hard to prove. I asked whatelse could I do? I realized I had her food now and I had saved some from other bags she ate. He said, "great, that would be the best way to do it. Test the food."

I want to file suit with them against their product. and now they need to prove to me their food didn't kill my dog. I think it's still going on and noone is really questioning it. Most of all, I'm tired of being brushed off after I contacted the FDA about what happened. They said to test the food, but were not much help. I can't rest until I prove I'm right for my dog, UNO who is loved, missed, and can't be replaced. I am emotionally stressed over this, lost a loved pet, and now have vet bills I shouldn't had have.

My dog who was a mixed breed ate ol roys for 14 years of her life when she took a sudden turn for the worse. Just last week she stoped eating and we brought her to the vet. The vet took xrays of her and informed us her stomach was three times the size it should be (stomach cancer and everything else was ruled out) The vet had no idea what was wrong with her. 5 days from that vet visit my dog started to vomit blood and later passed away.

I just had a idea that ol roys dry dog food might be associated with my dogs problems considering the fact she was experiencing stomach and vomitting issues and this was a dog that never got anything from the table a.k.a people food. She was in great shape and had a lot of energy, but in 1 week all of that came to a halt.

We had a female Whippet named Cassie who recently we lost after kidney and liver failure.She had to be put on fluids and dialysis.All this seemed to do was prolong her agony. We bought some Ol Roy buiscuits peanut butter flavored during the supposed recall.We fed Cassie and her brother some.One or two each. The next day both vomitted.They both seemed fine after but then a few months later Cassie started losing weight and and did not seem to have any energy.

We took her to the vet and he asked if she had gotten into any antifreeze.I told him absolutely not because these animals are both kept a controlled environment and watched closely.Then he asked if they had been fed any recalled dog food like Ol Roy.I said yes biscuits.He said this what had occurred with other animals who had eaten them.They had only had two a piece before we found about the recall and the store still had them out on the floor selling them.The displays were totally full.We got ours off the top.

We have lost a very loved and cherished member of our family .Been put through emotional pain we should never had to suffer.We had to euthanize her due to the fact she was suffering.We spent almost 750.00 trying to save her and take care of her .Lost time at work and possibly my girlfriends employment.Not totally sure on that point yet.But just the emotional trauma that we have suffered not to mention stress of losing her is beyond anything I can describe for this whole family is something that was unnecessary.If there was a recall why was the food still on the floor being sold!

My 7 year old male Rottweiler got sudden blurred vision in his left eye and then with in minutes began having shallow breathing. He was taken to his Veterinarian for xrays and scheduled for surgery. It was deemed that even after surgery due to the extensive effects of the Ol Roy dogfood,it would not improve his breathing.

My 11 year old female Rottweiler was in perfect health until eating the Ol Roy Dog food and also developed shallow breathing with in minutes, a white milky substance began coming out of her vagina instead of urine and she was taken to her Veterinarian and with in 3 days due to the extensive side effects of the Ol Roy dog food she was unable to walk on her own and died.

Resulted in the death of both of my Rottweilers; My male died on March 28,2007 and my female on April 6,2007 (10 days apart).

ONly the beagle has died but we will miss him very much as he was a good watch dog and our son will miss him very much.

My cat died in December of kidney failure after feeding him Special Kitty I bought from Walmart. He was in so much agony, we had to put him to sleep due to kidney failure. We now have a dog who has eaten Ol'Roy 4 flavor dog bones, Alpo and Pedigree which is also on the list. We should take him for blood tests, but we can't afford it. He has been lethargic, drinking a lot of water and is not himself.

We changed his food to Purina and now I think that is tainted too. The good foods on the list cannot be bought here.

We had our cat tested at the vets and they told us he was in kidney failure. It was very expensive and the emtional damage it has done to our family is extensive. How does one live with the guilt of now knowing your precious family member was poisoned??

On April 4, 2007 We brought some Ol Roy Dry Dog Food at wal-mart not knowing that the dog food was poisnous. I was taking care of my niece pit bull (BIG BOI) as well as our pit bull(PRINCESS).. BIG BOI got real sick on sunday april 8th after eating Ol Roy Dog Food I than called my niece and she took her dog to the vet and the vet gave her dog some medicine and diagonose her pit bull with hookworms; later that night her dog begin to vomit and steady diaherrhea we gave him the medicine the vet prescribe that night.

When I woke up the next morning we found the dog dead, I than took my dog to the vet and told the vet the symptoms of my niece's dog he immediately told me that my niece's dog had coronavirus. He gave my dog several shots to prevent the same symptoms from occuring.

Our dog begin to vomit and excessive diarrhea and foaming at the mouth and would not eat, drink or take her medicine. I than rushed the dog back to the vet but didnt make it before my dog expired.

I lost 2 dogs from Dog Food Ol Roy in a period of 72 hours.

My wife and I used to own 4 dogs. We, now, have just 1. Our dogs have been eating Ol Roy dry dog food in the big red bags. They were fine, until about a week ago.

On Friday April 6, 2007, I bought a bag of Ol Roy Complete Nutrition For Dogs

Dry Food at my local Wal-Mart.

I felt safe because that wasn't supposed to be recalled.
I started feeding it to 3 of my dogs,
that same day. My other dog is a toy
breed and needs special food, so he didn't eat any of it.
The 3 dogs that ate the food were
a 10 month old Husky mix male,
a 2 year old Chihuahua mix female.

and a 6 month old St Bernard mix.

On April 8th, 2007, I woke up, fed the dogs (they appeared ok), then I went to
do some shopping and other errands.
When I got back about 5 hours later,

Roxie, my chihuahua mix, was on the ground dead. The other 2 were very ill.

I called several local vets trying to find one that would see the dogs without any money up front, as I had just spent my entire paycheck on bills, gas, and groceries. I made 11 phone calls and even though I explained the situation, none of the vets or clinics would see the dogs without payment up front. I searched online, made more calls, and finally located a vet about

300 miles from my home, in Tulsa, OK that said to bring the dogs in and he'd try to help them.

I loaded up my kids,wife, and the 2 sick dogs and headed for Tulsa, OK.
An hour into the trip, Spicy, our 6 month old female St. Bernard mix died.
Zorro, our Husky mix was even sicker, at that point.
I had to get gas for the car, so I pulled into a Valero.

A guy in the car, next to me, saw the dogs and asked what was wrong. I explained.

He said he doubted Zorro would live to get to Tulsa. He said that if I wanted, he'd be willing to adopt him and take him to his own vet for care which was only minutes away.
My wife and I gladly accepted his offer.
He called his vet on his cell phone and
we loaded Zorro in his car.

Zorro died before he got to the vet with him.

Any of the vets we talked with, the following day, said that they would have to charge us way more money than we could afford to do tests on the dogs bodies to find out why they died.
So, we just buried them in the backyard.
I belive it was the food that killed my dogs. It was the only thing they were eating.

I just wish I had the money to have those tests done to prove it.

I first noticed my dogs drinking enormous amounts of water. It concerned me but I did not have them checked out by a vet. Two weeks after they started drinking the water excessively, I heard about the dog food recall. I looked up the recalled food on the internet and the kind I was buying was listed, Ol' Roy Dog Food, Beef in Gravy, Chicken in Gravy sold at Wal Marts in Tennessee & Mississippi. They all had the same bar code numbers listed on the recall list. I took my oldest dog, 7 year old Molly, A Sheltie to the Olive Branch Animal Clinic on Saturday, March 26, 2007. Tests revealed Kidney failure. She had to stay at the Clinic Saturday, Sunday and Monday where she received two liters of fluid intravenously each day.

When I brought her home Monday, March 28, 2007, I had to continue giving her fluids by sticking a needle under her skin twice a day, which consisted of 2 ml each time. I also had to start her on a special prescription diet food for failing kidneys. She also received the antibiotic Clavamox twice a day.

My other dog, Maggie, a one year old sheltie/terrier mix was luckier than Molly. Although she did drink the same amount of water as Molly, she did not eat as much of the tainted food. She checked out okay, but will have to be tested again when I take Molly back.

The total amount for these services has been $459.00.

Molly should have been re-checked by her Vet, Dr. Brandy Ellis on April 2, 2007, but I will not be able to take her until Thursday, April 5, 2007 because I don't get paid until then and I can't afford it until then. I have missed work to take care of my dogs. I have taken 8 Vacation days and I sold 10 vacation days to have the money to pay for Vet care. I have suffered emotional and physical stress due to this, not to mention what my dogs have suffered. I still don't know if Molly will recover. I feel Menu Foods should pay my Vet bills, my lost time from work and the sale of my Vacation Days to cover the cost for care.  

Our St. Barnard died March 1st. We noticed that he was not as perky as he was, and was not eating much. He deveolped a hacking cough after we switched from the Ol ROy in the red bag to the Ol Roy in the yellow bag. I know in my heart that our dog's death was a result of this food, but no one has confirmed this yet. Please let me know if there is anything that we can do about this. We have lost an important member of our family, and I would like to be able to rest at night.
