Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Sunshine Mills Inc. is recalling approximately 2,612 units of Whole Paws Maintenance Formula Chicken and Brown Rice Recipe dog food in 6 lb bags because it contains thiamine (Vitamin B1) levels below the FDA recommended limit. Thiamine is an essential nutrient for dogs, and consuming food with insufficient levels can lead to serious health complications over time. The affected products were distributed in Florida, Iowa, Indiana, Georgia, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Texas. Consumers who have the recalled product should stop using it and return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

A deficiency in thiamine can lead to gastrointestinal issues, weight loss, and severe neurological problems in dogs, such as head tilting, falling, and seizures. If left untreated, severe thiamine deficiency can be fatal for pets.
