 Public Interest: Feeding Our Pets — 8 August 2002
Well, Lonsdale says he’s blowing the whistle on the pet food industry and trying to convince pet owners to take their cues from nature and not from big business.
Lonsdale clearly has a perspective on this and someone always wants to be cautious about interpreting results from people that believe very strongly in a particular point of view.
Tom Lonsdale, you gave me a copy of a UK based publication called Veterinary Times and on the back of it there's an ad for some kind of dentist sticks, but at the top of the ad it says, ‘80% of dogs over the age of three have gum disease’.

Lonsdale College was founded in 1965 and is the second oldest Lancaster University college (Bowland was founded the year before).
Forty years of student living had taken its toll on the old college and the chance to move to a brand new site with en-suite facilities in all rooms was just too good to turn down.
The rooms on the upper level of Lonsdale House are alcohol-free and this is where you will find the junior and senior common rooms where you can just chill out and relex (again both of these rooms have TVs).
