Dog Food Recall Issued By Manufacturer

A brand of canned dog food has been recalled because it does not contain the proper amount of vitamins and minerals.

Fromm Family Pet Food said it has voluntarily recalled 12-ounce cans of Gold canned dog food pates for containing elevated levels of vitamin D.

The company, in a statement posted on its website, said the impact of excess vitamin D “should be seen only when dogs have eaten these product as their exclusive meals for an extended period of time.”

A reduction in appetite would be the expected result.

No reports of health problems have been received, but the company recommends that you do not feed you dog any of the following:

• 12 oz. Gold Chicken Pate Dog can case code#11893, individual can upc : 72705 11892
• 12 oz. Gold Chicken & Duck can case code #11895, individual can upc: 72705 11894
• 12 oz. Gold Salmon & Chicken Pate can case code #11891, individual can upc: 72705 11890

The products were shipped to distributors from December 2015 through February 2016.

The company asks that the cans be returned to the place of purchase or any authorized Fromm retailer. Alternatively, you can call 1-800-325-6331.
