FDA Recalls Eight More Pet Food Brands Because Ingredient Could Make Dogs Violently Ill

Last updated on Tuesday, December 4, 2018

(INDIANAPOLIS) - A few days ago we reported several brands of pet food were being recalled due to potentially high levels of vitamin D. It’s a vitamin that is essential for dogs’ health, but when too much of it is consumed, it could lead to “serious health issues,” including kidney failure or death.

Since that initial report, the FDA's list of recalled products has continued to grow.

The FDA says it is a "developing situation and this list may not be complete." It will be updated as more information becomes available.

As of right now, the list of recalled dry dog food products provided to the FDA includes:

Nutrisca - Chicken and Chickpea Dry Dog Food

Best by date range: February 25, 2020 through September 13, 2020

Natural Life Pet Products - Chicken & Potato Dry Dog Food

Sunshine Mills, Inc. - Evolve Chicken & Rice Puppy Dry Dog Food

Sportsman's Pride Large Breed Puppy Dry Dog Food

Triumph Chicken & Rice Recipe Dry Dog Food

ANF, Inc. - ANF Lamb and Rice Dry Dog Food

Lidl (Orlando brand) - Orlando Grain-Free Chicken & Chickpea Superfood Recipe Dog Food

ELM Pet Foods, Inc. - ELM Chicken and Chickpea Recipe

ELM K9 Naturals Chicken Recipe

Ahold Delhaize - Nature's Promise Chicken & Brown Rice Dog Food

These recalled products were sold nationwide. Symptoms of excess vitamin D include vomiting, loss of appetite, increased thirst, increased urination, excessive drooling, and weight loss. If your pet is showing signs of these symptoms, contact a veterinarian immediately. Provide a full diet history to your veterinarian. You may find it helpful to take a picture of the pet food label, including the lot number.
