I hope that you can help with the 'feeding pets' issue. A friend sent me a link to your Shaun White segment broadcast today. https://au.tv.yahoo.com/sunrise/video/watch/36099221/what-to-feed-your-pet/#page1 In fact for more than 25 years there's been a massive struggle in the vet profession about how to feed pets. You can find lots of TV and video at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzZmYoLjxA8bFUepVvHmv_A including NZ and Chinese TV. ABC Lateline covered part of the story last year. Channel 7 covered the story at least three times: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFnsEOHS_Os https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7XhE5hOBgI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zK5FuCfgZNo But as you can tell, the message is being drowned out by the junk pet-food industry and their spokespersons. Aussie pets and their owners deserve better. I hope you can get back to me about the possibility of getting the record set straight. As further indication of how big and serious this issue is, please see attached Raw Meaty Bones and the masses of info at: www.rawmeatybones.com Best wishes, Tom Lonsdale BVetMed, MRCVS Bligh Park Pet Health Centre 48 Rifle Range Road Bligh Park NSW 2756 Australia Tel: +61 2 4577 7061 ================================================= From: Tom Lonsdale [mailto:tom@rawmeatybones.com] Sent: Tuesday, 27 June 2017 4:28 PM To: Lepore, Monica; Bachmann, Amanda Cc: Sunrise Story Subject: Fwd: What to feed pets Hi Monica, Hi Amanda, I'm wondering if you received the Friday email OK.

As you know Channel 7 is well aware of the junk pet food controversy but continues to air false and misleading advertising and it seems, runs false and misleading advertorials. Please let me know what Sunrise, or Channel 7 more generally will do to correct the record. Best wishes, Tom ================================================= From: "Lepore, Monica" MLepore@seven.com.au To: Tom Lonsdale , "Bachmann, Amanda" ABachmann@seven.com.au Subject: RE: What to feed pets Thread-Topic: What to feed pets Thread-Index: AQHS7w7SdTDTd0PRlE+AfZTZWjXwZqI4P66AgAAD8NuAAAArMA== Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2017 06:50:05 +0000 Hi Tom, if you’re referring to the story we ran about pet food, we followed the advice of vets when compiling the story. We were conscious not everyone has the budget to be able to afford food from a vet so we needed to be able to provide alternatives. I accept that you have a different view to the vets we featured and spoke to off camera, but we managed that by making sure the message in the story was for pet owners to speak to their vet. Monica.
