Blog of the Week

PetConnection.com has been on top of the Pet Food Recall scandal with its blog since the news of the first Menu Foods pet food recall first broke in early March of this year. To say that its blog has been like a terrier at a pants leg is no exaggeration. This expertly managed web site and blog, features well-known writers and authors, such as Gina Spadafori, Christie Keith, and noted veterinarian, Dr. Marty Becker.

Their combined coverage of the ongoing recall, which has now ventured into the realm of human food, truly inspires awe. Time and time again, they have "scooped" not only the FDA, but the actual pet food companies involved, in getting out new information in a timely manner. Christie Keith has several times "live-blogged" FDA news conferences, with as many details as possible, long before the FDA transcript appeared on that agency's web site. My hat is off to all of them, and I stay up-to-date with the latest news by subscribing to the PetConnection.com blog feed. You can too, by clicking on the link at the right side of their page.
