“Which dog treats have been recalled?”
A pet food recall has been issued for Puppy Chow Snack Mix.
Puppy Chow Snack Mix - along with other brands of pet treats like PetSmart’s Grreat Choice Dog Biscuits and Happy Tails Dog Treats - have been recalled as a result of the peanut butter salmonella outbreak that occurred in early January 2009.
How Do I Know if My Dog’s Treats Have Been Recalled?
All bag sizes and all flavors of Puppy Chow Snack Mix have been recalled.
This means that anyone who has Puppy Chow Snack Mix on-hand should immediately stop feeding the treats to their dog. The dog must then be monitored for symptoms of salmonella, which include diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, refusal to eat and fever.
What Should I Do With the Recalled Pet Treats?
Any pet owner who has purchased a recalled pet food or pet treat should return the treats to the store where they were purchased for a refund or exchange.
The recalled Puppy Chow Snack Mix was sold at many stores, including Wholesale Food Outlet, Family Thrift Center, Prairie Market, Pick N’ Save, Econofoods, SunMart Foods and Family Fresh Market.
