CANIDAE Dry Dog Foods are manufactured at several plants across the US. Some products are manufactured for CANIDAE by Diamond Pet Foods, at their Gaston, South Carolina plant. This plant has recently recalled some of its Diamond brand products due to the potential for Salmonella contamination.

There have been no positive test results for Salmonella on CANIDAE products. There have been no complaints of illness reported to us.

The only CANIDAE products subject to this recall are as follows. No canned products, cat food products or treats are being recalled.
