Dog Food Recall? Here’s What to Do Next

Ever checked your dog’s food and seen it on a recall list? It’s a scary moment. A few years ago, I found out the kibble I’d been feeding Luna was part of a recall—thankfully, she was fine. But I learned fast what to do. First, stop feeding the recalled food immediately. Toss it in a sealed bag or return it to the store. Even if your pup seems okay, call your vet. They’ll guide you on what to watch for, especially if the recall involves contamination like salmonella or foreign materials. Don’t forget to report any issues to the FDA—especially if your dog shows symptoms. And to avoid surprises in the future? Sign up for FDA pet food recall alerts. If you need to switch foods, try to match the ingredients and transition slowly to avoid stomach upsets. Tip: Always store dog food in airtight containers, wash bowls daily, and wash your hands after handling it. These simple habits go a long way in keeping your pup safe. #DogFoodRecall #PetSafetyTips #HealthyPup #VetAdvice #DogCareBasics
