Company Announcement

Nacogdoches, Texas — TFP Nutrition has expanded their October 2023 voluntary recall of a single dry dog food to include all 56 of the dry dog food, dry cat food, and catfish formulas manufactured in their Nacogdoches, Texas, facility. The recall of these products is being conducted due to the potential for Salmonella contamination.

Salmonella can affect animals eating the products, as well as individuals who handle contaminated foods, 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 should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms: 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.

Children, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems may be at greater risk of Salmonella infection.

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. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian.

The company is working directly with retailers to remove the impacted product from the supply chain. Consumers who have purchased any of the formulas listed below with these specific date codes should immediately stop feeding the affected products to your pets and dispose of any product and packaging. TFP Nutrition apologizes for any potential issues this may have caused pet owners and their pets.

The expanded recall of dry dog, dry cat, and catfish food builds upon the limited recall TFP Nutrition issued on October 20, 2023, which included only 50-pound bags of Retriever Mini Chunk Chicken Recipe with “3277 TFP” or “3278 TFP” on the second line of the date code.

The new recall impacts the product lines listed below. If you are unsure of whether the product you purchased is included in the recall, you can find more information on the TFP Nutrition website or by calling 1-866-311-1323. Please be ready to provide the product name, product size, and manufacture date or lot code which can be found on the back of the bag.
