RECALL ALERT: Eukanuba, Iams dog food

Certain Iams and Eukanuba dry dog food bags are being recalled because of possible salmonella contamination.



From the Proctor & Gamble news release:
"The Procter & Gamble Company (P&G) has voluntarily recalled specific lots of dry pet food because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. These lots were distributed in the United States and represent roughly one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of annual production. No Salmonella-related illnesses have been reported to date in association with these product lots.

"P&G is retrieving these products as a precautionary measure. Consumers who purchased a product listed below should stop using the product and discard it and contact P&G toll-free at 800-208-0172 (Monday – Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM ET), or via website at www.iams.com or www.eukanuba.com. "
Also:
"Salmonella can affect animals eating the products and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products.
"Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian."
Proctor & Gamble also owns the Natura brands -- Innova, California Natural, EVO. Those brands have also been dealing with Salmonella recalls over the last few months.

Here are the lots that are affected. Iams dry cat food is also under a recall. None of the treats or wet food are under a recall.

  1. Gosh, it seems like a pet food is being recalled every month or so nowadays. I suspect the increase is because of increased caution about the matter. As the recall says, the salmonella contamination is "suspected" and no dogs have gotten sick. I wonder how they know then?

    Well, anyway, I am relieved that I don't feed any of these foods to Chester and Gretel.
