• The first and most plentiful ingredient corn and corn derivatives are:
• Species inappropriate;
• A very poor source of nutrients, and;
• Worst of all is carcinogenic - this corn is grown from Monsantos round-up ready Genetically Engineered (GE) seeds;
• Monsantos GM corn is now been proven to cause the growth of tumors; 
•  Animal feed grade grains (not screened for aflatoxins).
• Corn is high in carcinogenic and toxic content - in addition to the corn, this product contains soy (another of Monsantos GMO products, large factory farm produced soy also has other very significant health issues which you can read about here;
•  Contains unspecified vegetable oils - which indicates that the oils are low quality Omega 6, GMO oils such as cottonseed oil (also has one of the highest pesticide resides of all crops), safflower oil or canola oil (all GMO products);
• Contains carcinogenic chemical-based dyes;
• Unspecified animal fats (likely from 4D animals and can also be rendered down fats from euthanized dogs and cats from kill shelters, rancid fats from restaurants and food manufacturing);
• This dry dog food is a huge threat to your dogs daily health, quality of life and will shorten your dogs life span;
• And while the upfront cost of purchasing a bag of this food may be relatively inexpensive your long-term cost is high:
• You must feed your dog larger quantities of this food (than you would a better food) as the nutrition is so sparse;
•  You will accumulate numerous costs in veterinarian bills over the life-span of your dog to treat the health issues caused by eating this food...
