The California Department of Public Health issued a statement Tuesday pulling certain bags of Pedigree Complete Nutrition Small Crunchy Bites. Mars Petcare US of Franklin, Tenn., which makes the pet food, says that a component that should have been held back because of positive test results was accidentally shipped to a Pedigree facility in Tracy. It was used in about 100 bags of the food, which were shipped to Albertsons supermarkets in Southern California and to Costco stores statewide. There have been no reports of illnesses resulting from the recalled pet food. Information from: The San Diego Union-Tribune. *...a note on Salmonella* *Salmonella* is an organism that can cause serious infections in dogs. Symptoms typically include fever and diarrhea (possibly containing blood or mucus). Other symptoms can include lethargy and vomiting. Some dogs will not have diarrhea but will have a decreased appetite, fever and excess salivation. If your dog has eaten the recalled product and is exhibiting any of these symptoms, contact your veterinarian immediately. >> >> <BR><BR><BR>**************<BR>It's only a deal if it's where you want to go.
