Rachael Ray Launches Line of Dog Food: Nutrish

hc you have to be kidding! I just reread all of the ingredients and I am shocked that you think that the ingredients "aren't too bad". They are awful.
Anyone who knows about what not to feed their dog will understand.
There are dyes in the treats, artificial everything.
Horrible.
Artificial Color (Red #40, Yellow #5 & #6, Blue #2)!!
High Fructose Corn Syrup, Propylene Glycol !!
READ about Propylene glycol!!
amazingly poor. there is no excuse for her saying she loves animals and puts her name behind this.
It may be for" a good cause" but my first good cause is feeding my own dogs real food that is actually healthy, not the garbage that the commercial pet food industry poisons them with and now Rachel belongs to that group!

Oh my, oh my Rachel, what could you have been thinking?
These foods for dogs have the worst ingredients. No one with a brain could possibly want to feed this stuff to their dogs.
Rachel is a cook, why not teach cooking for your dogs?! Thats the way to go and get the best ingredients, no soy, no meat meal, no kibble.
This is such a mistake. I do hope everyone reads the ingredients and reads about what dogs should really eat!
There are great ways to make homemade dog food with premixes that are made from quality ingredients. Dr. Harvey's, Honest Kitchen, Sojourner.
She could have given to rescue and taught about how to "really" feed your dog naturally and healthfully. So, so sad. This is really sending such a bad message. Rachel has gotten very bad advice.

I am so thrilled to see so many people jumping up against poor quality pet foods! Whoo!

Iams and Science Diet are no better at all, take a good look at the ingredients. Those prescription foods that are pushed at the vet are just the same. Raw is best, high-meat content, low or no additive/by-product/grain canned food second. There are a few decent dry foods, and dogs do slightly better on them as omnivores than carnivorous cats, but this food is SAD.
Nothing makes me crazier than seeing FOOD COLORING in pet food!! That is to aesthetically please HUMANS! Dogs are COLORBLIND and I can't imagine they would care if they weren't!

I see those ads for the cat foods that "Are just like what WE eat" with veggies and rices and grains....plus too much fish in everything. UGH!

I wonder if RR even has a clue, or if she is just the perky puppet for the marketing. I contacted her site about it, big long letter last night. Doubt she sees those though, just her people.

I would never buy this simply because the twee name makes me throw up slightly.

Well, I'm sure her heart is in the right place, but I agree...she certainly needs to be more active in the ingredient department. Also, fyi, her deceased dog's name was Boo. The new puppy is Isaboo. Every dog owner owes it to him or herself to check out the wonders of the raw diet. Dogs in the wild do not cook their food....why do we? Grain is also a minimal part of their natural diet and not at all a part of a cat's natural diet. I feed my dog a mix of raw ground turkey or beef, raw eggs (shell included), a myriad of vegetables, fresh fruit. The boy eats better than I do! The cost is about the same as that of a "premium" dry food. If you are going to do the dry routine go to Flint River Ranch online.

Nutrish - I'm surprised she didn't call it EVOO, or something other annoying thing she made up, like TB (trash bowl) or, Deeeeelish, jeese she needs to go away!

Unless she names all her dogs the same name, that dog died. I heard her talk about it on her cooking show.

I work with some pet food regulatory (not an expert) and I would say in my opinion and judgement that the ingredients aren't too bad considering what's out there; and if it's for a good cause after all--

it's better than buying Iams:

I don't know about the dog food but that photo is proof that people and their dogs look alike. The head tilt, the little eyes...I'm mesmerized.

I like that it will help at-risk animals, but that's about it.

If she was looking to build an empire, Martha Stewart would have been a good model to follow. Right now, all her "branching out" so frenetically is just looking like desperation to cash in before, as someone said upthread, her "bubble" bursts.
