Attn: Fair Oaks-Carmichael Dog Owners: These Chews Pose Salmonella Risk For Pets, Humans

By Charlene Arsenault (Patch Staff)

Nylabone Products is recalling its 1.69 oz package of the Puppy Start Kit dog chews, citing that the product was potentially contaminated with Salmonella.

As Nylabone states in an announcement, “salmonella can affect animals ingesting the product and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products.”

Pets who develop a Salmonella infection may become lethargic, have bloody diarrhea, vomiting or a fever. Some see a decrease in appetite, fever and abdominal pain.

The recalled Puppy Starter Kit, said the release, consists of one lot of dog chews that were distributed nationwide, to Canada, and through one domestic online mail order facility.

The product comes in a 1.69 oz. package marked with Lot #21935, UPC 0-18214-81291-3, located on the back of the package, and with an expiration date of 3/22/18 also stamped on the back of the package.

No illnesses have been reported.

Anyone who has purchased this product should discontinue use, and also return to the store or online site for a refund.
