Approximately 159,751 units of various chicken breast pet treats, including Cadet Gourmet, Shep, Home 360 Pet, and Companion brands, have been voluntarily recalled. New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets (NYSDAM) testing revealed that these treats contain unapproved antibiotics. These products, manufactured in China, were distributed nationwide in various sizes ranging from 3.3-ounce bags to 2-pound tubs. Consumers should stop using these treats immediately and return them for a full refund.
The presence of unapproved antibiotics in pet treats is a safety concern because these substances are not permitted for use in food-producing animals or pet products. While no specific animal illnesses were mentioned in the recall report, the ingestion of unapproved antibiotics can pose health risks to pets and contributes to the broader issue of antibiotic resistance.
Return to the place of purchase for a full refund or contact the manufacturer for further instructions
