Why This Recall Matters
Salmonella is a type of bacteria that can cause illness in both pets and people. Dogs can become infected after eating contaminated food, while people can be exposed by handling the food, touching contaminated surfaces, or coming into contact with an infected pet.
Dogs infected with Salmonella may experience lethargy, vomiting, fever, decreased appetite, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or bloody diarrhea. However, some infected dogs may show no signs of illness at all. Even without symptoms, an infected pet can potentially spread the bacteria to other animals and people.
People exposed to Salmonella may experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramping. In rare cases, the infection can cause more serious health complications. Pet owners should also remember that contaminated raw food can potentially spread bacteria to bowls, utensils, preparation areas, storage containers, floors, toys, bedding, and other surfaces around the home.
At the time of the recall announcement, no illnesses had been reported in connection with the affected product. If your dog consumed the recalled food and develops symptoms, contact your veterinarian. Anyone who develops symptoms after handling the product or having contact with a pet that ate it should contact a healthcare provider.
What Pet Parents Should Do
Pet owners who have the affected product should stop feeding it immediately. Any remaining recalled food should be disposed of securely in a sealed container where pets, children, and wildlife cannot access it.
Because Salmonella can spread through contaminated food and surfaces, pet owners should thoroughly clean and disinfect bowls, food preparation areas, storage containers, bedding, floors, toys, and other surfaces that may have come into contact with the food or a pet that consumed it.
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling the recalled food, cleaning potentially contaminated surfaces, or handling a pet that may have been exposed.
Monitor your dog for symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, bloody diarrhea, fever, lethargy, decreased appetite, or abdominal pain. Contact your veterinarian if your pet develops symptoms or if you have concerns about possible exposure.
