The Backstory
This recall was sparked after the company discovered, through their own analysis, that certain canned food products may contain elevated levels of Vitamin D.
In a statement from the company, officials said, “We have identified and isolated the error, and in addition to our existing safety process, we have put corrective actions into place to prevent this from happening again.”
While no reports of illness have been made in connection with this recall, pet parents are still urged to stop feeding the affected food immediately.
About Elevated Vitamin D
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration:
“Dogs ingesting elevated levels of Vitamin D may exhibit symptoms such as vomiting, loss of appetite, increased thirst, increased urination, excessive drooling, and weight loss. Vitamin D when consumed at very high levels can lead to serious health issues in dogs including renal dysfunction. Consumers who have dogs that have consumed any of the affected products and are exhibiting these symptoms should contact their veterinarian.”
