Natural Life Pet Products of Saint Louis, Missouri is voluntarily recalling our Chicken & Potato dry dog food (described below) due to it containing elevated levels of Vitamin D.
17.5 lbs. Natural Life Chicken & Potato Dry Dog Food | Bag UPC: 0-12344-08175-1 |
Bags affected have a Best By Date code of May 29, 2020 through August 10, 2020. The Best By Date code can be found on the back or bottom of each bag.
The products were distributed to retail stores in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and California.
Natural Life Pet Products became aware of the elevated levels of vitamin D after receiving complaints from three pet owners of vitamin D toxicity after consuming the product. An investigation revealed a formulation error led to the elevated vitamin D in the product.
Consumers should stop feeding the product listed above. Dogs ingesting elevated levels of Vitamin D may exhibit symptoms such as vomiting, loss of appetite, increased thirst, increased urination, excessive drooling, and weight loss. Vitamin D when consumed at very high levels can lead to serious health issues in dogs including renal dysfunction.

Consumers who have purchased the product affected by this recall should dispose of it or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

This pet food drama is very sad and confusing. All of the pet food products have so much wrong. What’s a pet owner to do other than make their own foods and yet is that even good enough?

Susan, how is the Natural Life recall of chicken and potato connected to the Nutrisca recall of chicken and chickpea food? Are they the same brand? If different brands do they use the same co-packer? I’m curious, if you know.

Both foods are manufactured at the same plant – co-packed by the same company.
