Oma’s Pride Issues Voluntarily Recall Because Of Possible Salmonella Health Risk

Oma’s Pride of Avon, Connecticut, is voluntarily recalling one lot of Woof Complete Canine Chicken Recipe, 6 lb bag (Lot BB012729) because it is contaminated with Salmonella.

The recall was initiated after FDA received a consumer complaint and subsequently collected and analyzed a sample of the product, which tested positive for Salmonella. Oma’s Pride is continuing with their investigation to determine the source and root cause of the contamination. Three illnesses have been reported to date in association with the complaint.

Salmonella can affect animals eating the product, and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products.

Healthy people infected with Salmonella should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Salmonella can result in additional ailments including arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. People exhibiting these signs after having contact with this product should contact their healthcare providers.

Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian.

The recalled lot of Woof Complete Canine Chicken Recipe was distributed in AZ, CA, IN, KY, LA, MD, NJ, NV, NY, PA, VA to retail and wholesale accounts and directly to consumers through online, direct-to-consumer orders, shipped frozen.
