Mars Petcare Issues a Recall on Pet Food
It seems like déjà vu. It is yet another pet food recall. Mars Petcare has issued a recall because of salmonella concerns:
“Several brands and varieties of dry dog and cat food have been recalled by Mars Petcare because the food may be contaminated with a strain of Salmonella called Salmonella serotype Schwarzengrund. A joint announcement made by Mars Petcare and the Food and Drug Administration says the recall involves all the pet food produced at the company’s plant in Everson, Pennsylvania between February 18 and July 29 of this year.
The recall affects food distributed to 31 states and includes such brands as Pedigree, Country Acres, Retriever, Doggy Bag, Members Mark, Natural, Ol’ Roy, Special Kitty, Paws & Claws, Wegman’s, Pet Pride, PMI Nutrition and Red Flannel…”

Check the Mars Petcare site for announcements. If you have the product listed, wash thoroughly and note if there are any signs of cross contamination. Tell your pet owner friends about this recall. The last time, when there was a pet food contamination issue, too many pet owners found out too late.
