Expanded Pet Food Recall

January 9th, 2019 at 9:30 am EST
Hello Friend,

Welcome to Wednesday this 9th day of January 2019..

Your dog and cat's health is impacted by a variety of things..and yes diet is incredibly important.

But there are an array of things that you can be doing to not only prevent disease, but also naturally treat in the confines of your house.

I have a number of free resources ( ie this newsletter), BUT for those of you wanting more guidance from me personally, the best way is via my Inner Circle.

I have weekly livestream videos, and we answer your most pressing pet health questions.

I encourage you to see all that is offered on my Inner Circle, and I hope to see you on this Friday's Livestream at 4PM Pacific- we are going to be going into details on dental care and disease, along with specific natural remedies

There is plenty of time to start 2019 out on the right step ( and *really* learn about HOW to use Natural Home Remedies) by going here:




FDA Alerts Pet Owners about Potentially Toxic Levels of Vitamin D in Several Dry Pet Foods

Source: fda.gov


What You Need to Know


Fast Facts

The FDA is alerting pet owners and veterinary professionals about recalls of several dry dog foods after receiving complaints that dogs eating the food experienced vitamin D toxicity.

Testing found that samples of the dog food contained excessive, potentially toxic amounts of vitamin D. Vitamin D is an essential nutrient for dogs, but very high amounts can cause serious health problems like kidney failure or death.

At this time, the only pet products that have been impacted are food made for dogs.

Pet owners should discontinue feeding these recalled products.

The FDA is asking veterinarians who suspect vitamin D toxicity in their patients to report them through the Safety Reporting Portal or by calling their local FDA Consumer Complaint Coordinators. Pet owners can also report suspect cases to the FDA.

This is a developing situation and additional recalls may be announced.


What are the Symptoms of Vitamin D Toxicity?

Excess vitamin D in the diet can cause vomiting, loss of appetite, increased thirst, increased urination, excessive drooling and weight loss. 

Vitamin D at toxic levels can cause kidney failure and death. 

Pet owners whose dogs have been eating the recalled brands and are showing these symptoms should contact their veterinarians.

What Do Pet Owners Need To Do?

If your pet is having symptoms of vitamin D toxicity, contact a veterinarian immediately. Provide a full diet history to your veterinarian. You may find it helpful to take a picture of the pet food label, including the lot number.

Don’t feed the recalled products to your pets or any other animal. Contact the company listed on the package for further instructions or throw the products away in a way that children, pets and wildlife cannot access them.

You can report suspected illness to the FDA electronically through the Safety Reporting Portal or by calling your state’s FDA Consumer Complaint Coordinators. It’s most helpful if you can work with your veterinarian to submit your pet’s medical records as part of your report. For an explanation of the information and level of detail that would be helpful to include in a complaint to the FDA, please see How to Report a Pet Food Complaint.
