This one scared me because it is the kibble that we mix with our Raw diet.
Just barely missed this one! Getting to close to home!!
This relates to Nutra Nuggets sold by Costco.
NEW RECALL: Nutra Nuggets Lamb Meal and Rice Dry Formula for Dogs Recalled
May 22nd, 2007
We have been able to confirm that Nutra Nuggets (made by Diamond Pet
Foods) is recalling their Lamb Meal and Rice Dry Formula for Dogs with
the Best Buy dates of October 9-10, 2008. We spoke with a vet at the
Nutra Nuggets recall line and he said that so far, they had only heard
of 2 cases in which the dogs had renal diseases (confirming the news
report from yesterday).
He said that it was due to cross-contamination due to food being
produced for Natural Balance (Natural Balance had recalls in mid-April).
At this time, he said that no other food produced by Nutra Nuggets was
being recalled.
