My comment about those who have fed dog food does not mean that I know anyone who has made that choice with BB because I don't think that I do, but I HAVE heard people insist that some other companies themselves said that being high protein meant that their dog foods were fine for ferrets (which they are not due to different nutrient balances, lower taurine levels, etc.), so I know that this has happened in the past and I want to cover all bases just to be safest for ferrets.
