Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 7,525,278 units of various ALPO Prime Cuts canned dog food products have been recalled because they were manufactured using wheat gluten found to be contaminated with melamine. The recall includes multiple varieties such as Beef, Chicken, and Lamb in 13.2-ounce and 22-ounce cans, as well as several variety packs. Consumers should immediately stop feeding these specific products to their pets and return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

The affected pet food contains melamine-contaminated wheat gluten, which can cause serious illness or kidney failure in pets if ingested. Melamine is a chemical that is not approved for use in human or animal food and was found by the FDA to have been added to the raw ingredients.
