Signed up. Thanks from my beags and I.

Thanks BLKJLK it looks interesting. I gave your post a Thumb's Up and wish I could rep you, but I am temporarily out. I will try to remember.

thanks, thats cool!

theres a dog profile site called dogster (www.dogster.com) and their sister site catster.com which is also interesting... you can meet other pet owners and create adorable profiles...

Thanks

They send surveys periodically to see if you qualify for free pet food. I have received several samples from Petbuddies.

Awesome, we are getting a new kitten next week! Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks OP & mochiimochii!

Just a thought as I saw Ublues comment and respected it... they do tell you the name of the pet food... just not the new name = they are testing... they also send nutrition info and an 800 number... that's all the info i have... tried to post a nice free option... I'm done.

Just thought to post this because I got two 3.5 lb bags of Cat food to test today... So I thought to share this for all pet owners... I'm not sure if they offer a check etc once your furballs or feathred friends etc test the food... but they ask you to test the product on your pet... mine was 2 bags... they ask you to test one for 3 days then the other bag the next 3 days... I'm sure the products will vary depending on your pet etc... maybe no cash involved ... but I'm thinking... Yay for free pet food !!!

Uhhh, I want the food tested BEFORE my dogs eat it! Thanks anyway.

Well I guess you don't go all out for the Purina links... I respect that.

ah I knew I must have came across this here... sorry it didn't show up as a repost...thank you OP my bundles of kitty fur love the test product !!!

Thanks! I signed up :)

Thats already on the market when they offer it. Actually, I think the company bigwigs should have to eat everything they make for a month or so before they can sell it.

By the way these links all go to the same place and only mentions surveys. Am I missing something?

Thank you, NightVessel, appreciate the post... I fix my canines food homemade every couple of days... but I know several seniors that are having difficulty feeding their friends... might make a donation to them and do the surveys myself... :nod:

survey took me close to an hour to complete.
thanks for refreshing this post. that's why i like repost. i never saw the original.
rep to the both.

cant rep either. the op's too old and nightvessel i must've just rep you. sorry to both.

I'm bumping this again so people that missed it can sign up and geesh I just saw the comment from...Bosuxredsux that the survey took an hour... well geesh sorry... I signed up and took 3 surveys the longest was 10 minutes and after the 3rd survey I was asked to test products... my cats love it so far and I was careful not to give them too much new food too soon as I've seen other peoples posts that their pets didn't like certain products and got sick etc... but hey this is really a nice offer if you do the email surveys once you sign up ( I only got 3 ) Today once I had more time... looked over the paper work included in the box that came with the test products and yay they will email the survey about if my little fur critters liked or disliked the product and they offer a $ 10.00 check for the follow up survey !!!

Thanks!

I got the same size two bags a couple of months ago...with the same instructions... they were Meow Mix and my little bundles of fur liked both... geesh though I remember doing the follow up survey but I can't remember if a $ check was involved & I'm too lazy at the moment to go check my files... lol ... but very happy for the large bags of cat food... thumbs up and repped for sharing.

Thanks!

they said i qualified! cant wait hope they send me some dog food.:lol: my cat has plenty of cat food still. like 0 bags if not more

Cool, thanks.

thanks

ty ty :D I'm glad i saw this. i have all sorts of furkids.

I qualified as well.

Awesome post! Thanks for sharing as I signed up as well. With 3 cats in the house, it would be great to be able to test some food.

Good deal for people feeding commercial food or for those feeding strays & ferals. The free foods will come in handy, but not for me. Never again.

My dog was killed by "premium" pet food in February and my cat suddenly lost 70% of his kidney function at the same time, showing the same symptoms as the dog. Thank goodness, I had him get IV fluids to flush him out a few times, although it was far too late to reverse the kidney damage. Vets at the time had no clue as to what was going on because this was weeks before the recalls started. He still has high kidney values and his kidneys are ruined forever.

The large brand mainstream pet food companies will not EVER get their hands on my sick cat again or my two new dogs. It took my dead dog to wake me up as to what is actually in the pet food, as well as our human food, and I've done a complete 180 since then.

I'll pass. I've been solely homecooking for my fur babes, biscuits also, for several months, and I'll never go back to commercial brands, especially the mainstream brands.

My Pup got his first product test today, thanks to pet buddies :coverlaf:

Today I got a product test from pet buddies for a cat. Weird thing is I never signed up with this company and I have never had a cat. :confused:

nice info! Thanks

I qualified, does that mean they are going to send me food? I hope so, i have a beautiful 5 month old puppy and want to make sure she doesn't get sick cause of the food.

It was good when I first joined, but not lately...for me...hope it is better for others.:nod:

If I'm not mistaken I thought I saw something through the survey process where one is rewarded for EACH survey taken. Naturally, that reward would consist of what? Certainly not just an entry to a monthly / annual drawing...... :confused:

Anyone else catch that? :scratchh:

I joined today...with 8 Cats and Two dogs any savings will come in handy. :-)

Thanks

I have taken at least 15+ surveys with this company and I have never received anything. When I sent an e-mail asking why they said well because you haven't taken one that qualifies for anything yet. I sent a response back saying how do I do that? They said that they send them out from time to time. So in over a year and 15+ survery nothing!!! Nope not again for me.

I HAVENT RECIEVED ANYTHING EITHER,,,,,,so guess no one qualifies.

I have taken a bunch of surveys with them and received absolutely nothing. I do NOT recommend this one. :(

I joined several years ago and did receive 3-4 different dog snacks to try.

I joined yesterday and they said I qualified and asked me to join the community- when I try and login it doesn't remember my email address and says that they are full.

just got this email....

Hi there,

All good things must come to an end. We have appreciated your feedback over the past several years, but the time has come to close the Pet Buddies Panel.

Your participation has been an essential part of the feedback process that helps pet companies around the world improve the products your furry friends use every day. We wanted to take the opportunity to sincerely thank you for your participation.

Best regards,

Rex, The Pet Buddies Panel Manager, petbuddies@markettools.com

:dontknow: i rarely, if at all, got anything from them anyways.

I just got the same letter. I could probably count on one hand the surveys the whole time signed up with them.

I just got that email also and I won $250 from them last month from one of there survey giveaways. I didn't get to many surveys from them either.

I got that email also. I believe I received a total of 3-4 surveys during my entire membership. Not much. I DID get to allow my dog to try out a dog food a few months ago. But that was it.

I haven't gotten the email yet, but only received a few surveys during my time with them, and never got any products to test for my pets, or any other kind of incentive.

The question I have, which I am somewhat curious about, is I know some pets have trouble switching between foods, as it is more difficult on their digestive system. Has anyone noticed that issue while testing the dog foods?
