Why were they recalled?

Voluntarily recalled by Fromm out of caution, these cans of dog food contain too much Vitamin D. This discovery was made by Fromm themselves, and the recall is being done in coordination with the FDA. While no health issues have been reported, the primary symptom is assumed to be a loss of appetite, though, as you’ll see below, harsh cases of Vitamin D Poisoning will bring with it further symptoms, as well as the threat of death.

What are the symptoms?

According to Pet MD, dogs of all ages are susceptible to Vitamin D Poisoning, though young dogs and puppies are at higher risk. If your dog has consumed the food affected by this recall, keep an eye out for the following symptoms of Vitamin D Poisoning:

Vomiting

Weakness

Depression

Loss of appetite

Increased thirst

Increased urination

Feces containing blood

Blood in vomit

Loss of weight

Constipation

Seizures

Muscle tremors

Abdominal pain

Excessive drooling

What can you do?

If you have purchased any of these cans of Fromm, call the company at [800-325-6331] to inquire about a replacement or a refund. If cans have been opened, dispose of the food as soon as possible, ensuring your pet won’t find it.
