Blue Buffalo Recall

Yet another recall has been initiated. This time it’s a dog food recall by Blue Buffalo. The recall, which is voluntary has been initiated because there may be levels of vitamin D in the dog food which are too high for safe consumption. The following products, bag sizes and lot numbers are part of this dog food recall:
BLUE Wilderness Chicken- 4.5 lb., 11 lb., 24lb. – JUL1211B, JUL1311B, JUL2611Z, JUL2711Z, JUL2811ZBLUE Basics Salmon – 11 lb., 24 lb. – AUG2111B, AUG2211BBLUE Large Breed Adult Chicken – 30 lb. - SEP 22 11 P, SEP 23 11 P, OCT 26 11 P
Blue Buffalo has released the following statement regarding this recall:
We came to this conclusion after discovering that our ingredient supplier had made a scheduling error and produced a Vitamin D supplement immediately prior to preparing the ingredients for the BLUE products that are in question. We believe that some of the Vitamin D supplement may have been carried over into our products, resulting in more Vitamin D than is called for in our formulas.
While the potential of increased Vitamin D presents no serious health risk, and any negative reaction to these products has been confined to a very small segment of the canine population who appear to be sensitive to higher levels of Vitamin D, we have a zero tolerance for any product that does not meet our specifications….
Blue Buffalo has suggested that if you do have one of the recalled bags in your possession, you should immediately stop feeding your dog from that bag, and call 1-877-523-9114 for further information regarding a refund of the product.
Blue Buffalo produces both cat food and dog food. They are headquartered in Wilton, Connecticut.
