FDA Investigation Note
The FDA has investigated a potential link between certain grain-free diets and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in dogs. While research is ongoing and no definitive cause has been established, we recommend consulting with your veterinarian before switching to or from a grain-free diet. Many dogs thrive on grain-free foods, but individual nutritional needs vary.
