    Nutro's Dog Food

    So you know there is a shortage on Nutro's dog food. I actually just had to switch my puppy's dog food because there is no food available. I called the company and they said they buy their rice in china and they switched their distributer, this new company's rice was acceptable for dog consumption but nutro's standards the rice must be acceptable for human consumption and it was not to those standards. Now they are waiting for the rice to grow and be shipped. They told me around July they should be fully stocked. So if you are running low stock up..

    I sell this brand of dog food. Where do you buy yours?

    There is no shortage that I am aware of....my shelves at Tractor Supply Company are fully stocked, as should be any other Tractor Supply Co.'s shelves. In fact, I got a resupply just the other day....I would suggest that you get your dog food from TSC....

    I'm gonna call my rep and ask about this, but I DO know its in stock and resupplying right now...

    I went to all the pet smarts and petco's, they even have signs there stating a shortage. If you look at petco's website they are out of stock on most of the foods http://www.petco.com/product/100582/...e-Formula.aspx Is this the tractor supply in hamburg?

    "Isolated" shortages..."certain products"...

    Thanx for that find....I didn't see that on the website earlier....

    Luckily, we don't seem to be affected....yet....

    I'm in Warsaw...but the Hamburg store should be stocked as well....give them a call!

    It may very well be that our DC keeps a large enough stock on hand to get thru something like this....

    The website has nearly nothing to do with the store...

    Sorry for the confusion...I think its lame, myself, but the website is kinda new...and bears no real relationship to a Tractor Supply Co. STORE...

    I can assure you that MY store carries at least 6-8 different kinds of Nutro dog food in no less that 3-4 sizes....

    I suppose almost no one would be interested in ordering dog food on the internet, anyway...

    Retail outlets are like that sometimes...even differences between stores...

    For instance, MY store does not carry Blue Seal stock feeds...but some nearby do (like the Geneseo store)...which is why I suggested calling the store! If I was at work, I could actually look and see exactly what they DO have on hand at that store, but I'm not...
