Vet Plus Recalls Dog Supplements Due to Salmonella Risk

Two dog supplements sold on Amazon and Chewy have been recalled due to potential salmonella contamination. The company Vet Plus, Inc. is recalling its Fi Calming Supplement for Dogs and Fi 8-in-1 Formula Supplement for Dogs. According to the FDA, an ingredient in these supplements may be contaminated with salmonella.

The recalled products come in 180-gram containers with lot numbers 26118 and 26159, as well as UPC codes 850064800111 and 850055111684. These supplements were sold nationwide online on Amazon and Chewy.

Salmonella can pose a risk not only to pets but also to their owners who handle contaminated products or come into contact with animal waste. Pet owners should monitor their dogs for signs of salmonella infection, which include diarrhea, fever, vomiting, lethargy, decreased appetite, and abdominal pain.

Dogs can be carriers of salmonella without showing symptoms and can infect other pets or humans. Pet owners are advised to stop using the recalled supplements and throw them away tightly sealed after use.
