Peanut Recall Hits Pet Products..."Country Vet Biscuits, Safe!"

Our client, Country Vet Pet Foods, manufacturers a line of peanut butter biscuits for dogs.  Today they announced  their products are safe.

In light of the FDA "peanut recall", staff at Country Vet went to work early this week to make sure none of their products contained ingredients manufactured by suspect company, Peanut Corporation of America (PCA).  Country Vet, today, issued a statement saying that Country Vet Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits are safe.

This from Dave Patee, owner of Country Vet:

"A review of our records show that peanut butter used in the Country Vet Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits did not originate from PCA.  Therefore, all Country Vet Dog Biscuits continue to provide a wholesome and healthy treat for your pet."

This comes on the very day Petsmart recalled and took off their shelves "Grreat Choice" pet food products as the investigation into SalmonellaTyphimurium contamination from a plant owned by Peanut Corporation of America(PCA)continues.  Hundreds of human food products have been recalled and now the dragnet has been extended into pet food products.

This is the second time in as many years that Country Vet Pet Food products have been deemed safe.  It was just last year when hundreds of dog food brands were removed from shelves in the melamine scare.  It was a nationwide event that is credited with the death of hundreds of pets. At that time, Country Vet announced their line of pet food did not contain ingredients linked to the outbreak and reasured their customers that indeed Country Vet Products are Loved by Pets...Trusted by Owners.
