CLB Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 There has also been a new recall on current AVODERM pet food. http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm319021.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katana600 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Thanks for the head's up. A long time ago, I was giving the jerky treats to our dog and her weight was going up. I would have thought chicken was lean but the vet said that every time I give her a strip, I should consider it similar to giving a four year old child a king size candy bar. That did it for us. This article is eye opening about reading labels and food origins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLB Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I can attest to the horror of watching a beloved pet get ill from similar chicken jerky treats. During the last recall my 4 pound chi got salmonella poisoning...I would have sworn she had Parvo. Luckily, she pulled through. I know many others who did not.

Sarasota Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I can attest to the horror of watching a beloved pet get ill from similar chicken jerky treats. During the last recall my 4 pound chi got salmonella poisoning...I would have sworn she had Parvo. Luckily, she pulled through. I know many others who did not. How HORRIBLE. I'm so sorry. This is why I have stopped buying treats. I make my own for the doggies...and they seem to love it, so all I good. Geez, with the birds and the dogs....I'm becoming quite the cook!
