Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Wellpet Llc is recalling 16,161 cases of Wellness 95% Beef (13.2 oz cans) dog food because the product contains elevated levels of thyroid hormones. The affected canned food was distributed nationwide in the U.S., as well as in Canada and Australia, and features specific 'Best By' dates in February and August 2019. Consumers who have purchased these specific cans as a mixer or topper for their dogs should stop using the product immediately to prevent health issues in their pets.

Risk

High levels of thyroid hormones in dog food can cause symptoms such as increased thirst, weight loss, and restlessness. Long-term consumption of these elevated levels can lead to more serious conditions, including heart problems or damage to the thyroid gland.
