Well, I do not think that any animal would get harmed as they use human subjects to get the products tested. Having said that, they create pet food using edible ingredients. I do not think that pet food testing would cause any harm, as the company uses edible ingredients to create pet food.
My source of worry isn't about what they have used it making those dog food but for the fact that it's a new food that haven't been tested by any other pet. I'm not comfortable with my dog being the first to eat it. I don't care if the food is said to be safe, I just won't allow my dog eat it first just for me to get paid.
