There have been multiple dog food recalls hitting shelves lately, including raw and treat products pulled over Salmonella risks. ๐ฌ
If you feed raw, freeze dried, or store bought treats, this is your reminder to double check your bags and lot numbers.
Here is what to watch for ๐
๐ฏ Check the brand and lot number against any recall notices
๐ฏ Watch for vomiting, diarrhea, or sudden lethargy in your dog
๐ฏ Wash your hands after handling any recalled food
๐ฏ When in doubt, switch to a trusted source temporarily
Here is the bigger picture though...
Recalls happen. Ingredients get contaminated. Supply chains fail. It is honestly one of the scariest parts of being a dog parent because so much of it is out of our hands. ๐
But here is what IS in our hands ๐
A strong gut means a stronger defense system. Dogs with healthy gut flora bounce back faster from things like food sensitivities, mild bacterial exposure, and tummy upsets in general.
It does not make your dog immune. But it gives them a fighting chance when something slips through.
Have you ever had a scare with a recalled product? ๐ณ
