Pet Pantry Internl is recalling certain Canine Maintenance Diet and Beef with Barley dog food products because they may contain material from a cow that tested positive for bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), commonly known as Mad Cow Disease. The affected products were sold in 50 lb bags or plastic buckets through home delivery only between February 4, 2003, and March 12, 2003. Consumers who received these deliveries should not feed this food to their pets and should return it for a full refund.
The pet food may contain rendered material from a BSE-positive cow, which poses a potential health risk to animals and humans if handled or consumed improperly. While no specific illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall, the presence of BSE-positive material is a significant safety violation.
Full refund for returned pet food
