Natura Pet Products Has Added More To Their List Of Recalls For Dog And Cat Food
Natura Pet Expands Voluntary Recall of Dry Pet Foods Due to Possible Health Risk
Natura Pet Products is voluntarily expanding its March 29, 2013 recall of dry pet foods because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. The expanded recall now includes all dry pet food products and treats with expiration dates prior to and including March 24, 2014. Please see the table below for details of affected products.
Salmonella can affect animals eating the products and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products.
Healthy people infected with Salmonella should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Rarely, Salmonella can result in more serious ailments, including arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. Consumers exhibiting these signs after having contact with this product should contact their healthcare providers.
Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian.
Sampling conducted by the Michigan Department of Agriculture and the Georgia Department of Agriculture confirmed the presence of Salmonella in additional dry pet food and a cat pet treat. In an abundance of caution, Natura is also recalling product made in the surrounding timeframe. This action affects dry pet foods and treats only; no canned wet food or biscuits are affected by this announcement.
The affected products are sold through veterinary clinics and select pet specialty retailers nationwide and in Canada, Hong Kong, Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, and Costa Rica, as well as online.
Consumers who have purchased these pet foods should discard them. For additional information, consumers may visit www.naturapet.com. For a product replacement or refund call Natura toll-free at 800-224-6123. (Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM CST).

The Video Was Sad Enough Showing No Room In The No Kill Shelters But PETA Has Got Some Balls Thinking They Are Better
I sat and watched this sad video of people being told there is no room in these so called no kill shelters for their pets but at the end PETA took credit for this video.
Well who is PETA to say that they are any better when they are the ones who kill some eighty percent of the dogs and cats that come though there place of business.
Watch the video and tell me how you feel.
It's bad enough that most of the pet owners just dump their pets when they get too tied of taking care of them but there are some real reasons when disaster strikes and an owner has no alternative but to try and keep their pet safe for a while.
I just don't get these owners who dump their pets.
Why in the first place did you get your pet?
Was it because it look cute?
Or you though you needed a friend?
Well I know why I got my dogs. Because I love them and there is no way I would just dump them for any reason. They are part of my family who need and give love no matter what.
Read about how Peta Kills the dumped off pets by Ellen Killoran here.
And you can read the article by Nathan J. Winograd here. ( warning this link has some very upsetting photos )
Remember if you are going to make a donation to a shelter, do it to your local shelter and not any of these places.

Bravo Voluntary Recall Three Raw Frozen Food Diet For Dogs And Cats
Bravo! Issues a Voluntary Recall for Three Raw Frozen Food Diet for Dogs and Cats Because of Possible Salmonella Health Risk
Bravo! is voluntarily recalling three of its raw diet frozen foods for dogs and cats: 5 lb tubes of Bravo! Chicken Balance product item code 21-405 with "best used by" dates of 3_6_15 and 3_12_15; 2 lb Bravo! Chicken Blend product item code 21-102 with the "best used by" date of 3_21_15 and 5 lb. bags of Bravo! Beef Blend Burgers product item code 51-508 with the "best used by" dates of 3_21_15 and 3_22_15, because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. This recall is being issued out of an abundance of caution, as while these products tested negative for pathogens by an independent third party prior to distribution, they were run on the same day or an adjacent day to a product that tested positive for pathogens. The product that tested positive has been 100 percent contained and is not subject to this recall. The recall involves only: 5 lb. Bravo! Chicken Balance frozen raw diet chubs (tubes) with "best used by" dates of 3_6_15 and 3_12_15 imprinted on the side of the plastic casing. Only 26 cases with the 3_6_15 date were distributed nationally and 36 cases with 3_12_15 date were distributed nationally. 2 lb. Bravo! Chicken Blend frozen raw diet chubs (tubes) with the "best used by" date of 3_21_15 imprinted on the side of the plastic casing. Only 67 cases with 3_21_15 date were distributed nationally. 5 lb. Bravo! Beef Blend Burgers bags with the "best used by" dates of 3_21_15 and 3_22_15 imprinted on the back panel of the plastic bag. Only 47 cases with the 3_21_15 date were distributed nationally and 55 cases with the 3_22_15 date were distributed nationally. No other products or sizes are affected. The recalled product should not be sold or fed to pets. The company has received no reports of illness in either people or animals associated with this product. While these products tested negative, Bravo! is allowing concerned pet owners to return unopened frozen tubes of food and patties to the store where purchased for a full refund. Pet owners should dispose of unopened product in a safe manner (example, a securely covered trash receptacle). Consumers who believe they have opened these products at home should just dispose of the product in a safe manner and contact the retailer where they purchased their product for a full refund. Salmonella can affect animals eating the products and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products. Healthy people infected with Salmonella should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Rarely, Salmonella can result in more serious ailments, including arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. Consumers exhibiting these signs after having contact with this product should contact their healthcare providers. Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian. In an effort to prevent the transmission of Salmonella from pets to family members and care givers, the FDA recommends that everyone follow appropriate pet food handling guidelines when feeding their pets. A list of safe pet food handling tips can be found at: http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm048182.htm3. For more information on the Bravo recall, please visit www.bravorawdiet.com, or call toll free (866) 922-9222 Monday through Friday 9:00 am to 5:00 pm (EST).

At Diamond Pet Foods, we have a process where we continuously test our products,
and this process allowed us to find the undesired levels of thiamine in some of
our cat formulas. Our food safety protocols are designed to provide safe food on
a daily basis," says Michele Evans, Ph.D., Diamond Pet Foods Executive Director
of Food Safety and Quality Assurance. "In the event an error occurs, we have the
data to quickly alert pet owners, giving them the confidence they demand of a
pet food manufacturer."
Pet owners who are unsure
if the product they purchased is included in the recall, or who would like
replacement product or a refund, may contact the Pet Food Information Center at
18889656131, Sunday through Saturday, 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. EST. Consumers also may
visit Website - http://www.petfoodinformationcenter.com1 for additional information.
Cats fed product with the previously listed
Production Codes and Best By dates exclusively for several weeks may be at risk
for developing a thiamine deficiency. Thiamine is essential for cats in
maintaining normal nervous system function. Symptoms of thiamine deficiency
displayed by an affected cat can be gastrointestinal or neurological in nature.
Early signs of thiamine deficiency may include decreased appetite, salivation,
vomiting and weight loss. In advanced cases, neurological signs can develop,
which may include ventriflexion (bending towards the floor) of the neck, wobbly
walking, falling, circling and seizures. Pet owners should contact their
veterinarians immediately if a cat is displaying any of these signs. If treated
promptly, thiamine deficiency typically is reversible.

Bravo! Recalls 2 lb Tubes of Chicken Blend-Raw
Frozen Food Diet for Dogs and Cats (One Lot Code) Because of Possible Salmonella
Health Risk
Bravo! is voluntarily recalling its 2 lb tubes of Bravo! Raw Food Diet Chicken
Blend for Dogs and Cats, product code: 21-102, batch ID code 6 14 12, because it
has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.
The recall involves 2 lb. Bravo! Chicken Blend
frozen raw diet tubes (chubs) made on June 14, 2012 only; no other products or
sizes are involved. The recalled product should not be sold or fed to pets. This
batch tested negative by a third party independent laboratory prior to release
for distribution to consumers, however routine testing by the Minnesota
Department of Agriculture of product collected from a single retail location
tested positive for presence of salmonella. While the testing discrepancy is
unclear, in an abundance of caution Bravo is issuing this recall.
The company has received no reports of illness in
either people or animals associated with this product.
The recalled product is distributed nationwide to
distributors, retail stores, internet retailers and directly to consumers, and
can be identified by the batch ID code 6 14 12 located on the white hang tag
attached to the bottom of the plastic film tube.
Pet owners should return unopened frozen tubes of
food to the store where purchased for a full refund. Pet owners should dispose
of opened tubes of product in a safe manner (example, a securely covered trash
receptacle) and return the washed plastic batch ID tag to the store where
purchased for a full refund.
Salmonella can affect animals eating the
products and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products,
especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact
with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products.
Healthy people infected with Salmonella
should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms: nausea,
vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Rarely,
Salmonella can result in more serious ailments, including arterial
infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary
tract symptoms. Consumers exhibiting these signs after having contact with this
product should contact their healthcare providers.
Pets with Salmonella infections may be
lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets
will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but
otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If
your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms, please
contact your veterinarian.
In an effort to prevent the
transmission of Salmonella from pets to family members and care givers, the FDA
recommends that everyone follow appropriate pet food handling guidelines when
feeding their pets. A list of safe pet food handling tips can be found at:
