Summary

Mars Petcare US is recalling approximately 1,757 bags of PEDIGREE Adult Complete Nutrition Dry Dog Food because they may contain small metal fragments. The recall affects 15-pound and 55-pound bags sold across seven states, including Arkansas, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Ohio, and Tennessee. These foreign objects were discovered during production and could cause injury if consumed by pets. Consumers who have purchased the affected dog food should stop using it immediately and return it to the store where it was bought for a full refund.
