FDA Recalls 9 Brands of Dry Dog Food For Toxicity
The FDA is alerting pet owners and veterinary professionals about several recalls in dry dog foods after receiving complaints that the dogs consuming these brands experienced vitamin D toxicity.
Consuming foods with toxic levels of vitamin D can even lead to kidney failure or other life-threatening side effects, veterinary professionals say. Veterinary professionals recommend looking for an AAFCO label on the side of pet food bags, like Purina has, when choosing a brand to feed your pet. This label guarantees that there has been a feeding trial which guarantees that the food is safe for your pet's consumption.
If you're wondering whether or not you have some of the recalled food around your house, here's a list of the recalled products:
