Disappointing news for many, there has been a recall on some Purina wet foods brands.
Nestlé-Purina has issued a voluntary recall of many of their wet dog food tubs. The company discovered that the items do not contain the recommended amount of vitamins and minerals. The recall affects Beneful Prepared Meals, Beneful Chopped Blends, and Pro Plan Savory Meals.
In a press release, the company states:
Although most of the recalled product contains all of the vitamins and minerals your dog needs, we recommend that you discard any of the affected product you may have, and we’ll issue you a refund.
They also state that the lack of proper vitamins and minerals could pose an issue for dogs who eat these products as their only meal source for more than several weeks. If this is the case for your pup, you may want to consult your veterinarian.
Its a shame for the people who have been diligently feeding their dogs these brands and are now told that they lack nutrition. Their dogs have been getting a less than adequate diet and nobody knew. Switch brands immediately if you currently use any of the above brands.
