Warning! PetSmart Dog Treats Recall
PetSmart has announced a recall of 7 dog biscuit products containing peanut butter paste. The recall includes products under the Great Choice brand name which may have been contaminated with Salmonella. There have not been any cases involving pets to date but Petsmart is taking precautionary measures in light of the recent salmonella typhimurium outbreak that has sickened 486 people and killed six.
The outbreak has been traced products manufactured by the Peanut Corp. of America in its Blakely, Georgia, plant.
Although the risk to pets in minimal, Salmonella can potentially be found on the surface of dog biscuits and be a danger to humans that handle the biscuits. Children should always wash their hands when handling dog bones.
