A recent study out of the UK has revealed that raw dog food containing pheasant meat may pose a health risk to pets due to the presence of high lead concentrations caused by ammunition used to hunt game. With the popularity of raw pet food in the UK on the rise, the numbers of pets at risk for lead exposure could be high.
UK Pet Food, previously known as Pet Food Manufacturers' Association, has announced its new raw pet food production certification, alongside the adoption of a new name for the organization.
