Summary

Pet International Inc. is recalling 1,500 units of Buster's Natural Pet Supply Brand 6" Beef Trachea, a 12-pack pet treat sold in plastic pouches. The recall was initiated after samples collected by the Colorado Department of Agriculture tested positive for Salmonella, which can cause serious illness in both pets and the humans who handle the products. These treats were distributed specifically in Colorado and are identified by Lot #54 and UPC 8501450. Consumers who have purchased these treats should stop using them immediately and return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk
