Dog food recalled due to salmonella contamination

Dog owners should check their pet’s dog food.

Three popular brands are recalling products due to potential salmonella contamination:

• The U.S. Food and Drug Administration [FDA] announced on Oct. 30 Mid America Pet Food has voluntarily recalled three sizes of Victor Supreme dog food, select beef meal and brown rice formula. The bacteria can sicken pets and lead to hospitalizations. The food is sold across the U.S. This recall is separate from September's recall from the same company.
• On Oct. 27, Blue Ridge Beef recalled packages of Breeders Choice dog food due to salmonella contamination.
• On Oct. 21, TFP Nutrition recalled bags of its Retriever All Life Stages Mini Chuck Recipe due to potential salmonella contamination.

The bacteria can sicken pets and lead to hospitalizations. The food is sold across the U.S.

Owners should dispose of the food in a safe manner, where pets and wild life cannot come into contact with it.
