FDA: Two Dog Foods Recalled Over Salmonella, Metal
FDA: Two Dog Foods Recalled Over Salmonella, Metal
The News
Two dog food makers have recalled products over contamination risks, according to notices from the Food and Drug Administration.
Fromm Family Foods of Mequon, Wisconsin, is recalling canned wet dog food over possible metal contamination.
Connecticut-based Oma's Pride is recalling one lot of raw chicken dog food that tested positive for salmonella after three dogs got sick.
What Was Recalled
The Fromm recall covers 3,852 cases of Fromm Turkey Pate Wet canned dog food and 1,973 cases of Fromm Diner Classic Milo's Meatloaf Pate Wet canned dog food.
The turkey flavor was sold in 12.2 oz. cans with UPC 072705118700 and a best-by date of March 20, 2029. The meatloaf flavor was sold in 12.5 oz. cans with UPC 072705132324 and the same best-by date.
There have been no reports of injury or illness tied to the Fromm recall, and no other Fromm products are affected.
The Oma's Pride recall covers one lot — 639 bags — of Woof Complete Canine Chicken Recipe. The 6-pound bags hold 12 individually wrapped, 8 oz. vacuum-sealed portions. The lot number is BB012729, the UPC is 8 7938400145 9, and the expiration date is Jan. 27, 2029.
That lot went to retail and wholesale accounts in Arizona, California, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia, and was shipped frozen to consumers who ordered online. No other Oma's Pride products are affected.
Timeline
Both recalls were issued last week through FDA notices, PennLive reported.
The Oma's Pride recall followed a complaint received by the FDA; product testing then confirmed the salmonella contamination.
Three dogs became sick in connection with the Oma's Pride product, the FDA said.
The FDA announcement of the Fromm metal-contamination recall was reported by abc27, and the two recalls were reported together by PennLive and The Independent.
Reactions
The FDA's guidance to owners is straightforward: stop feeding the recalled products.
Fromm customers are told not to feed the food to their animals and to return it to the place of purchase.
Oma's Pride customers are told to dispose of the product, wash and sanitize all pet bowls, and contact the company at hello@omaspride.com for a refund.
What's Next
Owners whose dogs ate the recalled Oma's Pride lot should watch for salmonella symptoms and call a veterinarian if they appear.
Sick pets can be lethargic and have diarrhea, sometimes bloody, along with fever and vomiting. Some also show decreased appetite and abdominal pain.
Refunds run through the place of purchase for Fromm and through the company directly for Oma's Pride.
More
The two recalls are separate actions by separate companies, with separate causes — metal in the Fromm cans, salmonella in the Oma's Pride bags — and neither company's other products are covered.
Only the Oma's Pride product has been linked to animals getting sick so far.
