FDA Warns Pets Being Poisoned by Treats: Manufacturers Refusing Recall

The question many are asking is how many dogs will have to die before the products are recalled? It is already estimated that the dead and dying are numbered at more than 500. This number does not count all of the cases that have not made the connection yet between a pet’s illness and the treats. The treats are causing kidney failure and Fanconi syndrome, with some cases resulting in death; others, in chronic kidney disease.

Four months has passed since the FDA warning yet the treats are still being sold, and pets are still dying.

At a news conference today in Cleveland, Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown, and Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich both petitioned the FDA to step up their investigation. They both called for the Food and Drug Administration to take immediate action to put a stop to their policy that allows dangerous pet treats and pet foods to remain on the market and to put an immediate stop to its continued sale.

So far, the list of brands with treats made in China that are linked to pet illness and deaths are:

    Waggin Train
    Canyon Creek Ranch
    Dogswell
    Booda Bones – Aspen Pet
    Milo’s Kitchen
    American Kennel Club
    Hartz
    Dingos
    Beefeaters
    Kirkland
    Cadet
    Sargents
    Ever Pet ($$ General)
    Home Pet 360
    Walgreen’s new brand – Simple
    TheKingdomPets

If your pet has eaten tainted treats, symptoms may include:

    Decreased appetite
    Decreased activity
    Vomiting
    Diarrhea
    Increased water consumption
    Increased urination

If your pet is sick and you have been feeding it these treats please report it to the FDA. FULL ARTICLE

Hey guys, this is a warning to everyone to not buy the listed treats for your dogs. Whether or not there is a recall on these things, it’s always better to play it safe with your pet’s health.

:I Does anyone have the list of companies that are having issues? They did have a list up on that link, but it says they removed it.
That was nice of them.

I would find it myself, but I don’t have the spoons for this nonsense. Especially not after some of the racist bullshit I found looking for info. Nope.

I feel like this should be on my door.

I feel like plastering this all over the motherfucking house.

I agree with pretty much all of that, with the exception of the “To me, they are adopted sons/daughters” part. I love them like family, but I don’t see any of them as my children.

And let’s not forget the one thing that this list left out, which is the more important thing of all: They love you unconditionally, and would never abandon you because of something stupid.

Your pets don’t care if you’re gay, straight, fat, thin, ugly as hell, broke off your ass, have a broken ass, have a small penis, don’t have a job, do drugs, are a prostitute, are an alcoholic, got pregnant out of wedlock, cut yourself, or anything else that you might be ashamed of.

That is why domesticated animals will always have my respect. Not because they’re better, but because they give so much love to you. And they do it unconditionally.
