Have you ever heard of obeying the law? It’s one of those pesky little things that most normal people and corporations do everyday. Just because Victorville gave Nutro permission to operate at their current location, NO ONE has permission to violate California law. What do you mean Nutro should not be held accountable? Nutro has to abide by the CA Health & Saftey law that says companies can not emit odors into the air that cause nuisance to others. If you chose to live near a stinking dog food plant and not complain - that’s your right. However, we in SVL choose to not let a profit-making company make the rules and only follow the ones that they choose. Why don’t we just let all companies pick and choose what laws they want to follow?

And for your information, even the not-so-rich people who live around Nutro are part of the law-suit. You can choose to be a limp-wristed do-nothing if you like, but we choose to stand up for our rights buddy-boy, and we will prevail.

By the way, from what you have said, you must have worked at Nutro in the City of Industry and now work at the Victorvile plant, so I can understand your bias. The high desert has clean air compared do most places down the hill - and we want to keep it that way.

DON’T blame Nutro, who gave them permission to build their plant there anyway??? THE CITY OF VICTORVILLE!!! Point the finger there!! Nutro is an innocent victim here.

When Nutro pet food was being manufactured in the City of Industry, there was no massive outcry from the community. I used to live near the old plant, and there are TONS of houses nearby. But the major difference here is that the people in this community are modest, middle class people who don’t have tons of money and who aren’t so rich that they can retire early and sit at home and complain about silly little odors all day.

Like I said, I lived near the old plant and would smell the scent of dog food often - almost on a daily basis. But come on people, it’s DOG FOOD! Dry dog food at that. The Victorville plant doesn’t even manufacture canned foods which smells WAY worse. And don’t any of you have pets?? Don’t you feed them dry food? It really isn’t all that bad. I smelled it for YEARS!! Not 2 little years like you all are complaining about. And surely, it isn’t sensible to file a class action law suit against a company that should not be held accountable - blame your city.

So I will continue to feed my beautiful dogs Nutro Products - my dogs are healthy and gorgeous and have never looked better since being on Nutro.

Why don’t you people shove some of your money in your big mouths and stop complaining???

I would find out the names and addresses of the people who comprise the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District and start leaving rotten eggs in their cars, houses, yards, etc. What harm would it do? Y’all might get arrested but with enough bad publicity maybe something would be done. What is the Governor’s position on this situation? Someone needs to bring the problem to his attention.

It is a good premium brand for a reasonable price.

Glad I don’t still feed my cats that stuff.

Just a thought: If Nutro made quality pet food, they wouldn’t have to have the RTO. Geez…….they must be making some nasty crap a.k.a pet food. And poor pets are supposed to eat it too. Nutro clean up your act.
