We are writing to appeal to the authorities to investigate and review on behalf of all affected pet owners and suffered dogs from consuming foods manufactured by Bossipaws. This is so that pet owners can have more assurance that the well-being of their pets is being properly taken care of.

Date of Party: 29 Oct 2022

In summary:
27 dogs attended the party
19 dogs ate the food provided by Bossipaws
16 dogs down with diarrhea and/or vomit

Pet owners, please note to purchase your pet food items from @bossipawsbakery at your own risk. 

A few dogs even pooped blood, and some with diarrhea that lasted more than a week.

Bossipaws emphasised that there was another dog that attended the venue that had diarrhea, but this particular dog was leashed, put on diapers, and confined to an area. It was also proven by several vets in memos that if the dog was confined, it will not affect the dogs as he was isolated, & he was on diapers, because it can only be spread through a fecal-oral route: which is to eat his shit / lick his bum.

We were even told to bring our poor pups for blood test at their referred vet place to test if their diarrhea was due to the food they ate. But when we asked our respective vets, blood tests cannot verify this - just to test organs and blood counts. Yes blood count can test if their blood is fighting an infection, whereby infections can be anything, not just affected from consumption. It could be an eye infection, skin infection, etc. 

Unfortunately it is really more than coincidence that most dogs fall sick - and they are those that consumed on the day.

Initially Bossipaws said overeating, which I believe so too because overeating does lead to an excessive output to expel the extra foods inside but I believe it’s common sense that eat too much is just, diarrhea for 1-2 days. But for more than a week already, we can likely confirm it’s not due to overeating. 

They said they sent their MEAT to lab test.

What we don’t understand is: 

• If the sent to lab test is the same batch of leftover meats (unprocessed), since it is unprocessed, what can it prove? - to us it is just proving, this batch of meat supplied is clean. OK to go for further preparing for consumption: to cook/to marinate etc. 

• They requested for the same day “processed” siewmai (the one our guest bought) to go for lab test. - But since he also said that “food are prepared in batches”, the siewmai she bought is assumed irrelevant because,
1) it’s the cake-preparation batch
2) the siewmai served that day

— we did see their workers packing the siewmai for sale, but the one our guests bought is for sale, not the one served. (btw, they did not wear gloves during preparation)

Unless Bossipaws can guarantee: they rushed all the way to make & freeze & bake the cake and wrap the siewmai for the event and pack in boxes and seal also to sell without intermission? - which it highly didn’t make sense. 

- start > prepare > pause
- start > prepare > pause 

So it’s tough to prove that one of the intermission before starting goes wrong. because they are too many foods after intermission to test for! 

Bossipaws then requested for the rest of the reports from the Vets as well as the owners’ contacts, whereby their lawyer will contact the clinic and the owners, should any of the Vet certify that the diarrhea is due to Bossipaws food, their lawyer will further discuss on the compensation.

But common sense is which vet would pinpoint another person/business?Their liability is higher as a doctor for misdiagnosis and job is to treat and cure… not even to find out the cause.

Not long after, 

We were given the option of 50% of vet fees reimbursed OUT OF GOODWILL, so we counter-offered for a 100% claim of vet fees. But we have not heard a single reply from their side till now - 11/11/2022

 

Is it really a coincidence that 80%+ of dogs that ate the food fell sick after? Did we all forget about the spize incident? Isn’t it unfair because our furkids are animals?

We just wanted a good time, a good birthday blast and celebration, with our friends and our furkids. Yet we had a blast of sufferings.

 

In the meantime, we have received quite a lot of feedbacks that their dogs too, consumed their foods and suffered. They simply thought is their own dogs' issue.

 

We seek the authorities to look into this and investigate further, to speak up for the animals that suffered from consuming their food, from this and the past incidents.
