More recalls to check out, not just dog foods.

Hi all , most may have seen some of these on the sites I posted previously below, but there are some I do not remember seeing,  and they are not just affecting dog and cat foods, reptiles are now involved also. Natural balance is new to me as is Kent. Click here to read more. If there are more I'll post them as I get them.

recent recalls on food





Just got this information and thought I'd pass it along to everyone. As of 8-16 - 2010 Merrick has also been among the list of recalls. It includes some food and some suppliments such as Dis Taste Tablets (given to stop  stool eating) and some ear powders used at vet clinics also. Check the various lists on the sites below.

Also the egg recall is a biggy because some owners believe that adding a raw egg to their dogs diet is good. Not really so,  it's risky.  There is a giant egg recall going on now so if you practice  this check your cartons. Better yet , don't give it to your dog at all, there's really no nutrional need.
