THIS was what I was looking for when the connection died for me this morning.  Just received the email about the recall, and wanted to see what the site said.  THEN POOF - no more itchmoforums.com, itchmo.com.

These 2 tests were done on Timberwolf cat food (an opened bag and an unopened bag), not the dog food.  No, I never scanned the documents for online posting, just  posted the results.

Here's the original post reporting test results in 2007 on several cat foods:

http://itchmoforums.com/pet-food-testing/state-agriculture-department-testing-t1073.0.html;msg14175#msg14175

Maybe some folks can have some tested by their state animal feed/agriculture to see what the dog foods test as. It didn't cost anything. (Also, if you can't find them call the Governor's office or call the State University Agriculture Dept. to see if they can test for you)

It's not just too much fat that can have an issue - its if the fat was rancid to begin with....that should be checked as a possibility.
