Itchmo: News For Dogs & Cats

UPDATE: Story confirmed by AP. Recall announced.

FDA recall list containing 21 products is here. Thanks modthinglet.
Brands are: Ol’Roy (Wal-Mart), Nurture, Pet Life, Lassie, Companion’s Best, Stater Brothers, Champion Breed, Perfect Pals

ORIGINAL POST: A reader reports that CNN just announced that FDA has identified another company that also received the tainted wheat gluten. FDA refused (once again) to identify the company, but CNN said that their products are made by Sunshine Mills. Site not working? Try this cached version.

They own brands such as: Sunshine Pet Treats, Sportsman’s Pride, and World Pet Foods. They sell “throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico, plus over thirty other countries worldwide.”

Sunshine Pet Treats:

PUP CORN	DR. DENTAL CHEWS		MEATY TREATS JERKY
CRUNCHIN’ BONES	GYMBONE		PUFFS N’ PURRS

Thanks for the tip homermlw!

UPDATE 2: A reader, Teri, emailed Sunshine Foods asking if they are associated with Menu Foods in any way. Sunshine’s response yesterday? “None of our products are involved in the recall.” It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that they were avoiding the question.
