2 Dog Treat Recalls: Including Target, Petco, Costco...
First Recall:
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced today that Kasel Associates Industries Inc. is recalling all pet treats it manufactured from April 20 through Sept. 19, 2012 due to potential contamination with Salmonella. Kasel has issued three previous recall notices for specific products manufactured during this time period.
The move comes after the Colorado Department of
Agriculture tested a retail sample of a Kasel pet treat product and
found it to be positive for Salmonella. Based on FDA’s
follow-up inspection at the firm, FDA found that all of the finished pet
treat product samples and 48 out of 87 environmental samples collected
during the inspection tested positive for Salmonella. More than ten different species of Salmonella were found in the firm’s products and manufacturing facility, indicating multiple sources of contamination.
While there are no reports of human illness, FDA has
received a small number of complaints of illness in dogs who were
exposed to the treats. Because of the multiple positive tests for Salmonella,
and the production practices and conditions observed at the facility
during the inspection, FDA believes that there is a reasonable
probability that pet treat products manufactured in the facility from
April 20, 2012 through September 19, 2012 are contaminated with Salmonella.
