Multiple brands of beefhide\u00a0dog chews have been recalled recently. We were able to add some of the products to the Safe Pet Treats app<\/a> but not all of them due to a lack of information. We have reached out to the manufacturer and requested a full list of UPCs for these contaminated dog chews and as soon as we hear back we’ll be sure to add them to the app.<\/p>\n

The following can be found on the FDA’s website:<\/p>\n

United Pet Group, a division of Spectrum Brands, Inc. is voluntarily recalling multiple brands of packages of rawhide dog chew products that were distributed to retail outlets and sold online in the U.S. The recall involves the brands and products described below.<\/p>\n

The recall was initiated after\u00a0 United Pet Group identified that certain of its rawhide chew manufacturing facilities located in Mexico and Colombia, as well as one of its suppliers in Brazil, were using a quaternary ammonium compound mixture as a processing aid in the manufacturing of rawhide chews. The compound is an anti-microbial chemical that is approved for cleaning food processing equipment, but it has not been approved in the U.S. as a processing aid in the production of rawhide chews for dogs.<\/p>\n

United Pet Group received very limited reports of pet illness based on the volume of possibly affected rawhide chew products manufactured and distributed. The primary complaint received from consumers was that the affected product had an unpleasant odor. Diarrhea and vomiting were also reported.<\/p>\n

Exposure to quaternary ammonium compounds through direct ingestion may cause the following symptoms in dogs: reduced appetite, and gastric irritation including diarrhea and vomiting. These symptoms may require treatment by a veterinarian depending on severity.<\/p>\n

The affected product was distributed nationwide from United Pet Group\u2019s Edwardsville, Illinois distribution facility and was delivered to consumers through various retail establishments including online outlets. All of the dog chew products included in the voluntary recall identify an expiration date ranging from 06\/01\/2019 through 05\/31\/2020 located on the back of the package.<\/p>\n

The products subject to the recall are described below.<\/p>\n
