Pedigree Dog Food Recall Announcement From Your Indian Trail Pet Sitter/DogWalker

 

 

 

August 26, 2014 – Mars Petcare US has announced a voluntary recall of 22 bags of Pedigree Adult Complete Nutrition dry dog food due to the possible presence of a foreign material.

 

 

 

The affected bags were sold in Dollar General stores in four states.

 

 

 

Although the small metal fragments are not embedded in the food itself, they may present a risk of injury if consumed.
