Question by Deb: I received a warning about Dingo Brand dog treats, what lot number is being recalled?

I received a notice about Dingo brand rawhide bones with chicken jerky. I wanted to know if there was a certain lot number or area of purchase I should be concerned about. Any information would be appreciated since I have 6 dogs in my home.

    The dog items affected are:
    Dingo Chick N Jerky 3.5 oz and 8 oz.

    I don’t think they’ve given lot numbers that I’ve found but here’s the UPC codes and item numbers: http://www.eightinonepet.com/images/Jerky_Products.JPG

    If you have any of those I’d say the lot number isn’t important because you shouldn’t use the item anyways. Hope your dogs are alright!

    Eight In One, Inc., a division of United Pet Group, Inc., is voluntarily recalling nationally ALL LOTS of Dingo® CHICK’N JERKY treats due to Company concerns that the jerky treats have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, which can cause serious infections in dogs and cats, and, if there is cross contamination, in people, especially children, the aged, and people with compromised immune systems.

    The Food and Drug Administration is aware of this recall.

    The products affected were sold at Target, PetSmart and other retailers. The products subject to this voluntary recall are Dingo CHICK’N JERKY 3.5 oz. and 8 oz. for dogs and Dingo Kitty CHICKEN JERKY 1.5 oz. for cats and Dingo Ferret CHICKEN JERKY 1.5 oz for ferrets.

    Laboratory testing has shown that some samples of these chicken jerky treats were contaminated with Salmonella. The company is recalling all these products out of an abundance of caution.

    Salmonella can potentially be transferred to people handling these pet treats, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products. Healthy people infected with Salmonella can have some or all of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Rarely, Salmonella can result in more serious ailments, including arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. Consumers exhibiting these signs after having contact with this product should contact their healthcare providers..

    Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Apparently well animals can be a carrier and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian.

    The company has received one report of Salmonellosis in a dog. There are no reports of human illness.

    These products are being removed from retail stores. Consumers should immediately stop feeding these treats to their pets.

    Consumers who purchased any of the above-identified CHICK’N JERKY TREATS should discontinue use of the products and should discard the unused portion. Consumer can obtain information on receiving refunds by contacting the Eight In One consumer affairs department.

    I have a list in front of me and this is what it says.Dingo chick’n jerky treats for dogs and cats and farrets.
    In very fine print it says
    (recalled 03/31/07, all lots. salmonella contamination)

    I got this list off of www. howl 911.com and they have a list of foods that are on the recall list and the list for snacks also and thats where I got it. I hope this will help.
