Salix Animal Health, LLC announced it has initiated a voluntary recall of one lot of “Good ‘n’ Fun – Beefhide Chicken Sticks” because it may have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.ucm465187

Salmonella can affect animals eating the product and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated products.

Leslie Kessinger from Three Dog Bakery in Franklin says, “The first thing that a pet parent needs to do when selecting dog treats is look at the quality of the ingredients in the items they’re purchasing. Just like the food you buy for your family, you need to read labels and know the makeup of your pup’s treats. Just because a dog product says its “wholesome” or “natural,” doesn’t necessarily mean that the contents meet your definition of natural.”

The recalled “Good ‘n’ Fun – Beefhide Chicken Sticks” was distributed nationwide by Salix Animal Health to Dollar General and Dollar Tree retail stores. The recalled product is packaged in a 2.8 ounce bag stamped on the back side with lot # AO15010 and with an expiration date of 03/2018. The UPC code is 0 91093 82247 1.
