Summary

Royal Canin USA, Inc. has recalled approximately 262,448 bags of various Royal Canin and Sensible Choice brand cat and dog foods. The pet food was manufactured with rice protein concentrate from China that was found to be contaminated with cyanuric acid, an unapproved and hazardous food additive. The recall includes multiple formulations such as Early Cardiac, Skin Support, and Hypoallergenic diets sold in various bag sizes throughout the United States. Owners should return any affected product to the store where it was purchased for a full refund.

Risk

  2. Check the product label for the recall numbers V-1109-2007 through V-1118-2007 to confirm if your specific variety is part of this recall.
