I just wanted to share something that will bring comfort to those who buy products manufactured at Crosswind Petfood. They have begun a new protocol where we can have our product made and they will store it while samples of the dry product are being analyzed for melamine specifically. The 'dries' that go into the food are being tested as well, but I think it's pretty cool for them to do this.
It will mean offsetting some of the production protocol, since in the past they run production and then ship after the food has cooled to ambient temperature. It's a huge commitment on their part to offer to store xxx tons of food until the tests come back and the load can be released 'melamine tested, melamine free' and the neat thing about doing business with a small company like them, is they KNOW what it's like to be a small company!!
They have always exercised extreme caution anyways, but I am really psyched to know they put this into place for their customers (like me) who want to offer the safest products to their customers (like you) and it just is a good thing for the general public to know. This IS being taken very seriously and dealt with professionally
