Jiglu: Farmtalking: Discussion: Re: End of Raw Meaty Bone Diet for Dogs?

Originally from: Farmtalking

I rather think they will ban smoking in public places and not before too long either! More's the pity IMO, but then I'm a smoker!

I guess their arguement for the banning of bones for pets is that in their opinion such a practice is likely to be harmful too, though harmful to what or whom is uncertain.

Of course it could also be that John Reid is right, and they do listen to the people and act on what they tell them, What we have to realize is that in a democracy we have to accept that the majority opinion will be the one that is followed and acted on.

The minority, such as ourselves, may also be listened to but our opinions are outweighed by the majority.

That isn't to say that the minority haven't got it right in many respects but their opinions and advice fall on deaf ears. Especially when they question the actions of huge manufacturing companies such as those involved in the Pet Food and allied industries.

I guess that's the price we pay for 'Globalization' and that opens yet another huge can of worms! Pardon the pun!
