Reply to "Pet Food Recall"

I found this email from Pet Food Express that very clearly points out which foods they consider safe, and which risky.

quote:


PFE's current sales policy on wet dog and cat food is as follows:

NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE

We are not selling:

* Any item that has been recalled.
* Any wet foods, recalled or not, from brands that were made by Menu Foods and that had a significant number of recalled products
* The brands affected are: Iams, Eukanuba, Science Diet, Nutro

AVAILABLE FOR SALE ON A RESTRICTED BASIS

These are brands that are produced in whole or in part by Menu Foods but for which we have spoken to the manufacturer and been assured that:

* Their products are not produced in the suspected plants.
* None of their products are being recalled
* They have had no reports of sick, dying, or dead pets.
* Their products do not contain wheat gluten.

We are selling these brands only if a client is fully aware of the recall and the potential risk posed by feeding a product made by Menu Foods. Although we have been assured that there is no problem with these foods, we cannot and do not vouch that they are safe.

* The brands included are: Nature's Variety, Wellness, Castor & Pollux, Newman's Own Organics, Wysong, Innova

AVAILABLE FOR SALE WITHOUT RESTRICTION

We are selling without restriction any brand that is not made by Menu Foods at all.

The brands included are:

* Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul
* Canidae/Felidae
* Breeder's Choice/Pinnacle (except for Chicken and Oats formula which is made by Menu)
* Natural Balance
* Solid Gold
* Triumph/Evolve
* Merrick
* Kal Kan (Pedigree, Cesar, and Whiskas)



I know Merrick is popular with some of our dogs, including Nova, and Ive been holding off on giving him any "wet" food till they know the cause. But it is reassuring to see it it listed as "safe".
