This is a good point.
But why just think local?
If your site is reaching dog owners internationally, why not contact the food manufacturers direct?
Be Brazen!
Tell them your site is the best!
Try to sort out a way to display their manufacturers notes/ pdf's / recalls etc etc
Tell them that you have all the breeders queing up to view your site.
Remember, more content [supplied by manufacturers] means more hits/ page views - and that means more manufacturer money!
...and don't be shy, they can only say no
