Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

OC Raw Dog, LLC is recalling 544 cases of OC Raw Dog Freeze Dried Sardines packaged in 3.2 oz. poly printed bags. The recall was initiated because the sardines were found to be un-eviscerated (organs not removed) and measured greater than five inches, which creates a risk for Clostridium botulinum (C. bot.) contamination. These products were distributed to retailers in California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Texas.

Risk

Fish that are un-eviscerated and larger than five inches are prone to the growth of Clostridium botulinum, which can produce a life-threatening toxin that causes botulism poisoning in both pets and humans who handle the treats.
