Barf Blog has a post about an elderly Georgian dog (Ozzie) being one of the salmonella outbreak's casualties. While the owner believes the bacteria was passed from peanut butter crackers meant for humans, plenty of doggie treats use peanut butter as an ingredient. The FDA says throw this dog food away. "Product recalls now include some pet food products that contain peanut
paste that was made by [Peanut Corporation of America] PCA. While the risk of animals contracting
salmonellosis is minimal, there is risk to humans from handling these
products."
Kansas City-based Three Dog Bakery says the recall does not apply to them. The company uses peanut butter in a variety of its products, from special dog cakes to peanut woofers and peanut butter biscuits. It has posted a notice about the recall.
