ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful when a company is taking responsibility before something bad happens?
DeleteI have not sen this around here, but thanks for the heads up!
ReplyDeleteYour welcome. The company is based out of Seattle. It could be a product they sell up north but hasn't reach all the USA yet. I knwo I plan to remember this products name.
DeleteThese dog food recalls never seem to stop - glad they are being proactive.
ReplyDeleteThere does always seem one after another. Good thing this company spotted trouble before any customer complaints and took responsibility.
DeleteAlways keep an eye/ear open for recalls. Once, in the case of an automobile, I was driving down a 60mph road when the engine just flat out stopped in a location between visibility hills! By the way, "effected" should read "affected."
ReplyDeleteThank you for the constructive criticism. I will go correct. Thank you for stopping by and reading my blog.
DeleteI have not seen this type of dog food around here. Thanks for letting us know.
