Everyone al To take away the staff has at least one furry four-legged friend, either a meow monster or a milky boy, and we love our pets very much. We know you love yours too. That’s why you may want to look in the pantry to see if a new memory of dog food affects your good dog or not.
Bravo Packing in Carneys Point, New Jersey, has published a withdrawal of its minced meat and Performance Dog pet food, due to concerns that these items may be contaminated with salmonella and listeria. A routine FDA inspection showed that samples of both products tested positive for both bacteria.
Symptoms in dogs include lethargy, bloody stools, diarrhea, fever, or vomiting. They may also have decreased appetite or abdominal pain. But they can also be free of symptoms. As a pet-to-pet owner, if your pet has behavioral differences, it’s always a good idea to have them checked in order to catch something before it gets worse. I’ve been there.
Humans can also show symptoms if they have handled pet food without washing their hands or surface. Viously, everyone should take special care, but young children, the elderly, and pregnant women are at risk for a serious salmonella infection. Symptoms include abdominal cramps, diarrhea (also possibly bleeding), nausea, vomiting, and fever.
If these items are the ones that feed your pets, throw them away. If you have any questions, call Bravo Packing at 856-299-1044. Both ground meat and Performance Dog products come in two- and five-pound sleeves and were available on store shelves or by mail.
