***NOTICE 6/1/07: I am in NO WAY associated with ANY for-profit web site linking to this page.***
Since this situation seems to be never-ending, and this page of recall-related information was becoming rather hard to navigate, I have created individual pages for each company in two sections (recalled product pages and suppliers/importers) and listed them below. I have decided to add ANY pet product recalls I find out about, hence the name change from Pet Food Recall info/posts to Pet Product Recalls. Other recent pet-related recalls have taken a back seat to the pet food recall, however these salmonella-related events are obviously worthy of everyone’s immediate attention. I have also continued to add to my initial March 17th post on the pet food recall (who would have thought it would go on THIS long?!), so if you’d like access to all my blog entries on the pet food contamination fiasco, click here. Hope the changes on this page help you find whatever pet-related information you are looking for! š
I compiled a list of where to register complaints in each state since there was much confusion as to which agency interested parties should contact in their area. If you run across contact information which is more up-to-date, could you please post it in a comment so I can add it? Thank you!
Here are two versions of a story by Andrew Bridges for the Associated Press. Mr. Bridges should be commended for doing some quality investigative reporting on the pet product recall and contamination story, but this particular story raised many eyebrows since some rather high figures and information (more than likely accurate!) were deleted and/or altered in subsequent versions of his report.

Hi Janis,
First of all, I would DEFINITELY save the containers of food, if you still have any, just in case something might happen to one of your pets. (Fingers crossed that they’re fine.)
As for what to feed, that is most definitely the $64,000 question. Many are turning to home-cooked meals, but this press release by the AVMA gives some good advice.
The best advice I could give you is to talk with your veterinarian or at least a veterinary technician from the animal hospital you go to. I’m sure they have been getting many calls about this and have prepared some good information for their clients.
If/when I find a product I may switch my Rudy to, I will definitely post the information and why I opted for that choice. I wish you lots of luck finding a good alternative for your pets, and would really like it if you’d come back and let us know what you found out. Thanks!

Hi, Have had just lost my 13 yr old sheltie Monday from kidney failure. I know it just could have been her time because of her age but my vet was very concerned about how fast her kidneys had failed since she had just been to the vet in Dec and had the blood test done and everything was normal then. I have always been as careful as I could about what I feed my dogs, but I can’t help but wonder if the treats I gave my dogs just as the recalls started caused my 13 yr olds death. And now I am worried about my other dogs. I guess what I am asking is does anyone know anything about the “ADI Pet Inc.” out of Temecula, Ca. The name of the treat is “Meat Blast Pork Twists” Waggin Train Brand. Thet have Wheat Gluten in them and are made in China. It is very concerning to see that they are still on the store shelves at Wal-Mart stores. Please let me know if you have any info or input on this. Thanks, Cheryl

Cheryl, I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. It’s so frustrating to not know if it was indeed old age, or if tainted products had anything to do with your Sheltie’s passing. I did a quick check for you over on the FDA’s pet food recall search engine and didn’t find anything with the information you’ve given, but that doesn’t mean that the product may not eventually be added to the list of recalled items. At this point ANY product with wheat gluten has me on high alert. Again, I am very sorry for your loss.

My 1 yr. old daschund is in very bad shape. I watched him go through 3 days of rapid decline and shooting almost raw blood out his rectum. We took him to the vet this am along with a package of “new” rawhide chews, which I thought was suspect. The vet kindly blew me off saying I should never feed them to our pets, but hooves or sterilized bones…then went on to say, he was going to administer hydration which turned him into a camel of sorts…huge lump, and a couple of shots for the vomiting and diahrrea. He never even looked at the ingredients or company of the twists. My husband is on the floor right now with this poor animal and we are both numb and praying. It’s very late Saturday night and we are in a very rural area, husband is exhausted and stalling to take him to an emergency room. I am scared and very upset. I thought I would do a search on the product I think may have done this. I found this site. It is the same as above…Meat blast pork twists, from Walmart. My dog was robust, very healthy and in a matter of a few days, has just disintegrated in front of us. My husband is saying “wait till morning” and we will contact vet again. I pray my dog recovers, but I just wanted to know this…we can’t afford expensive exams, tests, etc…is there any company that will do the research for free? I feel this product may be contaminated as well. I can’t be certain, but it is very possible. I felt when I purchased them, that Walmart would for sure have pulled tainted items, so I was confident it was ok. Maybe not, and I would like to see this product added to a list to investigate. I can’t e mail the FDA it seems so I have a phone number for a coodinator to report. Please, if anyone knows who will do the test on this product, please help notify of the brand. (China, wheat gluten, and still on the shelves!) Thank you for your attention.

I truly suggest that people feed species appropriate food to their pets. There are thousands and thousands of people who are feeding either raw BARF-style or home cooked meals. Frankly, it is the pet food industry who has convinced humans that they are too stupid to care for a pet. Veteranarians go to schools where the ‘nutrition’ section they learn is very first of all short, and secondly is sponsored by dog food companies! The pet food industry was invented as a way for large food suppliers to use up their ‘not fit for human consumption’ leftovers – not particularly healthy in general (and of course with the China scare now it’s worse). I mean, you don’t question making your own food to feed yourself or your baby – but they have you scared silly to feed your dogs and cats real food as nature intended them to eat it! There are a few ingredients to never add (raisins, grapes, onions) but in general, the diets are simple and easy. I’ve been feeding my dogs like this for 24 years w/o one single problem. My sheltie/shepherd mix was 17 when she died, and I have 2 Appenzeller/Bernese mixes going strong now on food that I make (or thaw) out of ingredients that I know where they come from. I feed a cooked veggie/beef mix in the morning and raw chicken parts or beef parts and raw meaty bones in the evening meal. Here is a good link to start with:

Can you please check out Waggin Train Brand Chicken Jerky Tenders from ADI Pet, Inc in Reno, Nev. I have heard that Wal-Mart has pulled the product from the shelves. I have not been able to locate anything other than a news story on Yahoo.
Thank you so much

I am also interested in the wagging train chicken jerky treats. My Shih Tzu has been sick lately and now I am concerned about these treats. I just bought a bag of them at Sam’s Club. Usually they are slightly red in color but I noticed that the last bag I bought at Wal-Mart were really dark. Thank You

Hi Mike and Twyla,
Thanks for the heads up about another recall possibly taking place. I did find information about Wal-Mart pulling some Chicken Jerky products without classifying it as a recall (Wal-Mart said they’re still testing the products, therefore haven’t officially recalled them yet), but I didn’t see anything about ADI, Inc. this time…at least yet. As we’ve seen, these recalls tend to go in spurts and all information doesn’t usually come out as quickly as it should. So if you have the product you asked about I wouldn’t take any chances and would instead NOT give it to your pet.
Here’s the blog entry I just did about the Wal-Mart issue. Take care. š

Hi- Luckily through all this I have fed my dogs Bil-Jac products, although I have given them Waggin trail Chicken jerky treats from Adi Pet. All I saw on the back were the big letters that said “Rancho , CA”. The small print in the corner says ” made in China” so watch closely people, it’s easy to miss. I just noticed it today after the small ad on MSN. Luckily my dogs show no sign of sickness, YET! But I will not give them any more. PLEASE, if you have any additional information on this product , let me know. Let’s Quit Buying From CHINA!!! Thanks.

I just threw away the empty bag of Waggin Train chicken jerky bit I wanted to see if they were made in China. My two Shih Tzus, mother and daughter, LOVE them. I mean, L-O-V-E them!!! I can practically get them to sing Puccini and vaccuum the entire house if I dangle one in front of them.
So what’s the scoop? If I hadn’t seen this on the news last night I’d be buying a new bag today. I understand that the CEO of Waggin Train just gave a media statement about the quality and safety of this product. I cannot find an ADI Pet Inc. Website, does anyone have any info on that?
OMG if anything happened to my girls because of something I gave them I would die.
Thanks for any help.

Personally, I have been doing some research on dog food and the ingredients and quite frankly i’m appalled what we appear to be feeding our dogs. I’ve posted a page with a shocking dog food video report on my website. If you are a dog owner you need to see this.

ADI/Waggin Train Warning
For those of you asking questions about the ADI/Waggin Train products please let me share this story. A couple months ago I bought a bag of their Chicken Jerky Tenders, which my dog loves. I noticed the meat was bright pink and looked soft, when normally it’s tan and very hard/dry. My pet happily ate the treats, so I thought nothing of it. I usually have a bag for a couple months, as my dog is small and doesn’t eat much. Within a few weeks the treats were covered in white and green mold. I live in Utah, which is a very dry state, and have not had any moisture problems that would cause this. Obviously the meat was not properly cured, and at this time my dog became sick. He recovered, but I will never buy dog food or treats made in China again. If anyone can recommend the same type of dehydrated chicken jerky treats that are made in the US I’d love to buy some.

There are ways to make your own dog treats – there are many recipes out there for making for example your own liver biscuits or you could get a dehydrator and make your own chicken strips. We are killing our dogs due to our insistence on processed convenience foods.
I am glad to see the video posted by Woofer however, I also disagree with something on the page that is hosting the video from Woofer. Dogs have no nutritional need for grain, and diets made of 30% grain are not held by most experts to be part of what dogs require and are in fact a known trigger for various allergies.
Dogs need species specific foods. In the wild, dog’s closest relatives will eat meat, including organ meats bones and sometimes wild grasses or berries, as well as the stomach contents (grasses) of their kills.
Grains can cause allergies, no matter if they have preservatives or not – you just do not see dogs wandering through wheat fields gathering wheat and baking bread from it.
If your dog’s teeth are not clean its’ because he’s not eating enough raw meaty bones which clean teeth naturally, provide an outlet for natural chewing tendencies and give needed calcium and minerals.
Feed real food – not processed food – and you will see the health of your dog improve tremendously and will avoid all dangers from Chinese ingredients as well as our own home grown poorly made dog food (it is absolutely evil what is allowed to be put in dog food in the USA).
I am not selling anything. I care about the health of my pets and have seen real diets of species specific foods improve the health of dogs time and again.
I suggest you check out sites such as this forum for people to share their own experiences – which tell you how to take care of your dogs the way that nature intended – not by a steady diet of processed junk food.

Open comment to Jonathan Bernstein (Bernstein Crisis Management):
Just curious. After reading your comments on numerous websites and forums (regarding the Waggin’ Train Chicken Jerky Tenders debacle), do you EVER advise your clients that they should perhaps take the high road?
A decent company would not try to defend themselves in such manner as they have hired you to do – if their product came up in so many places as being a culprit to ill or dead pets, they would pull the product and cooperate fully with the FDA and AVMA.
This would lead to a much better situation regarding their reputation. As it is, my bet is that Waggin Train will fold in the next year due to their evasive tactics – and you, my friends, may very well go with them. Sometimes, you simply cannot defend the ind

Corporations spend millions to protect their good names and their products. Now some are even asking the government for more regulations. This is a way to pass the cost associated with their bad Chinese imports directly on to the tax paying consumers. Why should the consumers pay for testing their goods to see if they are safe for the market? Consumers are sick and tired of this whole issue. A good way to let them know is to not buy any brands associated with the largest corporation. If they loose enough money, maybe the others will realize that they must stop importing from China, and yes many other questionable countries. Isn’t it time to tell them that we want MADE IN THE USA products for our pets and for ourselves?

Earlier this year, at the height of the dog food recalls, we awoke one morning to find my 1 1/2 year old mixed breed dog lying on the floor. She was cold and unresponsive.
We wrapped her in a blanket with a hot water bottle and rushed her to the vet. The vet said she looked “stoned” and later stated that she had been poisoned. We looked in vain around the house and yard for a source of poisoning. Then I remembered that we had tried a new treat. It was the Waggin Train Pork twist with real liver in the middle. I recalled that the day before, she had eaten 3 or 4 of these since she stole the treats from our other dogs. The vet said it wasn’t likely and we threw the rest of the treats away. I searched the recall lists and this product was not on the lists.
I still strongly believe that this product was the culprit. Our dog survived thanks to quick treatment, but consumers need to know which products are dangerous. This is the first blog I’ve seen about this particular product. Just wanted to add my experience in case it helps anyone.

Hi All…
Wanted to say thank you for having such a site as this to gather information and support. My daschund Zachary “Boo Boo” Aziz recovered completely. It was a few weeks before he was himself, and we were terrified. We have stopped giving him anything that came from China, making our own homemade food, and real beef jerky for treats….I am so grateful for people that band together and try to make a difference. This site was a real eye opener and gave me support in following my “instincts.” Your average citizen would just assume the product was safe if it was still being sold. I did. Thanks, again!

And Berni it’s FANTASTIC to read about Boo Boo’s recovery, since I remember you posting about his illness shortly after it occurred. I’m very happy that the blog entries and the comments from others have been such a help to so many people!
As for going with our instincts and gut feelings, that’s something I’ve learned to follow over the years. The times I haven’t are the times I realized I most definitely should have. And it goes without saying that a “Made in China” label is something I’m staying away from for some time to come.

Anyone having any troubles with the Berkley & Jensen (All-Natural Flavors, Assorted Dog Biscuits, 7 lb. box), or the Berkley & Jensen Natura Rawhide Dental Chips, 2 lb. bag) ? I purchased these once again at the B.J.’s Wholesale Retail Club, after the recalls. I noticed two years ago, my dog would vomit yellow after these products. Now, after the manager declares to me they are safe from the recall, my beloved dog is vomiting yellow again. Anyone have any of these effects from these products? How can I prove this?

This may sound like a hasty generalization but I think it is safer to avoid commercial dog food (generally) as much as possible. Pet foods are virtually self-regulated. This is weird because anything involving food should comply with superstrict standards. Sadly, this does not apply to pet food yet. So I really suggest dog owners to make the food themselves if you have time. There are many sources for homemade dog food recipes in the Internet.

I have been giving my boxer dogs Waggin Train Pork Twist Meat Blasts with liver centres for sometime but will not be doing so any longer. This is why. On Friday 16th July 2009 I gave each of my two boxer dogs a Meat Blast from a new packet. By Saturday morning it was clear my young dog was in severe pain and unable to eat. I took her to the vet and to cut a longs story short by late afternoon she was unable to walk and was seriously ill. She was put on a drip for the next 24 hours and has undergone intensive treatment. We were very close to losing her. By the next day my other dog was showing the same symptoms and he too required veterinary attention. All laboratory tests indicate there was no salmonella, campylobacter or other nasties. The vet is now certain it was something they ate that poisoned them. They have absolutely no access to anything poisonous. Both dogs were in extreme pain and passing bloody mucus stools and vomiting. At that stage we had no idea what it could have been.
Today I was at a dog event and another dog owner has fed exactly the same treats again from a new packet to her young dog on two occasions recently. On both occasion this young dog suffered very severe diarrhoea. I am convinced that this product made our dogs very ill. I have searched the Internet and Waggin Train appears to be suspect but from what Iāve found their products have not been recalled. Most posts seem to go back to 2007 but I can assure you the problems continue.
Like other I had no idea that they are made in China. It takes some searching to find the small print. I thought they were made in the USA.

Hi, my dog spends his time w/ his grandparents when I go into the office. Yesterday my mom bought the dogs a new bag of dog treats – Waggin Trains Chicken Jerky Tenders and at first glance I thought they were shady. I always give my furbaby all natural treats. By evening he had started vomiting and during the evening he started w/ diarrhea. He was lethargic and I took him to the vet immediately. Nothing had changed from his diet and nothing toxic is around him. I am convinced it was this treat.
He is now on IVs. There is no kidney damage but his pancreas has flared up and we have to watch him closely the next 24-48 hours.
I am livid this continue continues to make this product and stores continue to sell it.
I hope Princeton recovers from this.

This post is in response to the death of my dog Chelsea. My dog was a healthy border collie mix. She had shown no signs of any illness until one night I come home to find her lethargic at the bottom of the stairs. She could not move or stand up. Thankfully we have a 24 hour vet nearby. She was taken immediately and given a check up and had blood work done. The blood work came back with high spikes in her liver enzymes which the vet said was due to something that she ingested. The only thing that that had been introduced to her diet recently was Waggin Train chicken jerky treats. I had been feeding them to my dog for a few months (she loved them). I immediately stopped feeding her the treats. After being off the treats for a week she had another round of blood work and her liver enzymes started to return to normal. We had 1 more round of blood scheduled in 2 weeks to make sure that her liver has returned to normal. But unfortunately Chelsea did not live that long. I woke up on the morning of May 30th to her having a Gran Mal Seizure due to high toxin levels and she died in my arms. After her death I started researching Waggin Train Jerky treats and was amazed to find the large number of people that had posted instances of illness or death of their pet and they felt very strongly that the treats contributed to the illness or death. The FDA has issued an advisory concerning the feeding of chicken jerky products from China. Based on the fact that my dog had high liver enzymes and the vet attributed it to her ingesting something toxic and the fact that her liver enzymes started to return to normal after I stopped feeding her the treats I believe that the Waggin Train chicken jerky treats that I had been feeding her contributed to her death. I am not saying that every treat or every bag is dangerous but with them coming from China you never know what was added to them in the Chinese facility. My suggestion, stay away from them and you will also stay away from a $1000.00 vet bill like I had as well as the loss of a pet. JUST BEWARE. If you have experienced similar problems pass the word around. You can also file a complaint with the FDA. My suggestion is to do your own research, just Google waggin train jerky illness. You can read comments from other pet owners and make you own decision as to whether you want to feed this brand of treat or any other that is imported from China to your pet. I am posting this in memory of my beloved Chelsea and hope that the post will help to save the life of other pets. As consumers we should be able to question the safety of a product if we feel that it has caused harm. After my first post a friend that Lives in Las Vegas said that they had given their dog these treats and their dog had bloody diarrhea so they stopped feeding their dog the treats and their dogs bowels returned to normal.
First e-mail sent 5-23
Second e-mail sent 5-30
You asked for my address but I included it in my first email on 5-23
When I finally spoke to someone at waggin train Chelsea had already passed away. Cindy asked if their Vet (village vet) could contact my vet to discuss the cases and get the medical records. I authorized my vet to release the information. Several weeks later I had a message from Cindy saying that she was following up to see how my little doggie was doing. I got this message after spreading Chelseaās ashes. I called cindy back and told her that I was upset that she made a insincere statement asking how my dog was doing considering that our last conversation was about my dogs death. Cindy went on to explain how safe their products are and during the conversation she said that she would like to offer me a $100 costco giftcard. I told her that I do not shop a costco and she said how about a Sams club gift card. I told her that I found the offer offensive.
Waggin train does have a face book page but they practice censorship by deleting any negative comments about their product. You need to do a google search to get uncensored reviews

Hi there
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your precious dog and all for a treat. I am still furious that Waggin Train is continuing to get away with this. Like you I contacted them after nearly losing my dog and while Cindy seems sincere I can’t comprehend how she can continue to produce these dog treats when all the evidence points to a serious problem. It’s happening too often with disastrous consequences. Like you say itās not every bag but when you get a bad one youāll never buy them again. I tried to do everything possible in New Zealand to have their products withdrawn but wasnāt successful. Itās too hard to prove and even after having the treats tested there was nothing conclusive. And itās not just the chicken jerky treats. I fed my dogs the Waggin Train Pork Twist Meat Blasts and they had the same reaction. I was one of the lucky ones and my dog pulled through but it was a miracle that she is still here. She was so close to dying. If you love your dogs PLEASE donāt feed them anything that comes out of China or you may be facing the grief that C Peacock is going through.
