“The recall was initiated after receiving complaints of metal contamination. We have identified the error, and in addition to our existing safety processes, we have put corrective actions in place to prevent this from happening again,” the company said in a release.
The recalled products were distributed to neighborhood pet stores and online outlets across the U.S. and Canada.
Though Fromm said no illnesses have reported so far, the recall from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned of the harms of even small metal pieces in dog food.
“Metal of any size, especially sharp pieces, can lead to serious health issues in dogs, including lacerations in the mouth and gastrointestinal tract,” according to the alert. “Metal, when consumed in large amounts, can lead to gastrointestinal upset, partial blockage, and a risk of intestinal obstruction. Consumers whose dogs have consumed any of the affected product and are exhibiting these symptoms should contact their veterinarian.”
Symptoms of possible metal ingestion include choking, vomiting, loss of appetite, lethargy or stomach discomfort.
Anyone who may have purchased the affected cans is being asked to return them to the retailer they purchased at.
