Comments on: V.I.P. Pet Mince laced with dangerously high levels of sulphur dioxode, tests reveal https://www.petfoodjudge.com/v-i-p-pet-mince-preservative-223/ Dog food reviews / Cat food reviews Wed, 13 Nov 2026 05:58:15 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Samantha Logan https://www.petfoodjudge.com/v-i-p-pet-mince-preservative-223/#comment-42588 Wed, 13 Nov 2026 05:58:15 +0000 https://www.petfoodjudge.com/?p=1911#comment-42588 My dog nearly died eating VIP gourmet chuncky mince, and my other dog threw it up thank god.

It cost me $5300 in emergency vet bills. He had an instant reaction, he became very quiet and hid under our deck and the next day he was so bad we had to take him to the vet.

The pet company offered me more of their food for some strange sort of compensation.

My poor 16 year old daughter whose dog it is was so distraught. This event was traumatic and costly and I couldn’t go to work for three days to care for my daughter and the dog when he came out of hospital, which meant I didn’t get paid. All because we bought this nasty good.

It’s not a good we normally get for our dogs as we ran out and this was just a tied over and what a costly mistake. NEVER AGAIN

it was scary.
I had seen her this way once before not as bad from eating temptation cat treats.
this was worse. also if you need to know – the remedy to help is thiamine supplement, so i started giving it to her as she started to feel better.
This VIP brand fussy cat needs to be banned! they add knowingly that its harmful.
Oh and vets these days are heartless and only care about money.
i called a few to get some advice, and got none.
Also there is a pet poison hotline which if you call after hours you will be given the option to pay 85.00 for the advice or wait until 9am! to get advice free.
i did not pay. yes this is America.
My own research gave me better results and solutions.
Please be careful.
Its awful these pet food brands.
