Pet Food Recall~Wysong & Diamond
Posted By Otter
The follwing came to me in a e-mail. Permission was granted to cross post by sender.
There have been two pet food recalls.
1. Wysong Has Recalled some Wysong Maintenance and Wysong Senior Dry Dog Foods that were manufactured in June and July of 2009 because of mold growth. Click here for lot numbers of affected product and more details.
2. Diamond Pet Food has Recalled Two Varieties of Premium Edge Cat Food – because of the cat foods were deficient in thiamine. These are Premium Edge Finicky Adult Cat and Premium Edge Hairball Cat. Click here for lot numbers of affected product and more details.
Anyone who has these foods should stop feeding them to their pet immediately and return them to the store where they were purchased for a full refund. Contact information for the manufacturers is as follows:

I love the holistic pet food created by veterinarian Dr. Jane Bicks. (www.DogSmithNutrition.com) She has her own stand-alone manufacturing facility, so there is no worry about cross-contamination of equipment by other pet-food manufacturers using lower-quality ingredients. She makes the food in small batches and quality control tests every one.
She uses only human-grade ingredients, and no corn, wheat or soy products. No preservatives or dyes. The foods are fast-cooked to retain the maximum amount of nutrients, and she refuses to sell the product via stores because she doesn’t want it sitting on store shelves (because of the absence of preservatives). So you order it online through a registered agent, and it ships to your door! The best part is that she encourages customers to call into a monthly conference call she does and ask questions about the food. Can’t do that with Iams or Science Diet!
Also, please note that each 40-lb bag of kibble contains approximately 160 cups. Each cup of dog food has 483 kcal/cup. Check whatever food you’re using now, because this is very nutritionally-dense food and most people find they need to feed much less of it to maintain their pets’ weights. I cut my 70-lb pointer back from 2 cups twice a day to 1.3 cups twice a day. My heeler gets half a cup twice a day.
Hope this helps! I just love the products!
