View Date:2024-12-24 07:52:51
Multiple dog food products have been recalled recently due to salmonella contamination.
The Food and Drug administration announced last Monday that Mid America Pet Food is recalling three lots of Victor Super Premium Dog Food Select Beef Meal & Brown Rice Formula dry dog food after third party inspectors found the lots were contaminated with salmonella.
This recall is separate from the September salmonella related recall from the same company.
The previous week Blue Ridge Beef recalled packages of its Breeders Choice #2 log dog food that was found to be contaminated.
TFP Nutrition recalled bags of its Retriever All Life Stages Mini Chunk Chicken Recipe dry dog food on Oct. 21 due to salmonella contamination.
Pet owners are advised to dispose of the recalled products in a manner that prevents it from being consumed by pets or wildlife and to sanitize any surfaces that the products may have come in contact with.
How to identify recalled dog food products
Three sizes of the Victor Super Premium Dog Food Select Beef Meal & Brown Rice Formula are included in the recall with the following lot codes:
- 5-pound bag, lot code 1000016890

Symptoms of and treatment for salmonella disease
While humans likely aren't consuming the dog food directly, salmonella can still spread through contact, especially if you fail to thoroughly wash your hands after handling contaminant products or surfaces that have come in contact with it. In humans, signs of salmonella poisoning include:
- Bloody diarrhea or diarrhea that lasts more than three days without improving
- Diarrhea and fever over 102 degrees Fahrenheit
- Excessive vomiting, especially if it prevents you from keeping liquids down
- Signs of dehydration, including dry mouth and throat, infrequent peeing and feeling dizzy when standing up
- Stomach cramps
These symptoms most commonly occur between six hours and six days after exposure. Though most people recover in four to seven days, those with weakened immune systems, including children younger than 5 and adults over 65, may experience more severe symptoms that require medical treatment or hospitalization.
The symptoms somewhat vary in infected pets, who can be carriers even when appearing healthy and infect other animals or humans. Because of this, the FDA suggests that you contact your veterinarian as soon as possible if your dog potentially consumed these products, even if they aren't showing signs of illness. Some symptoms to look for in your dog include:
- Lethargy
- Diarrhea or bloody diarrhea
- Fever
- Vomiting
- Decreased appetite
- Abdominal pain
