To the Rescue: How To Report a Pet Food Problem to the FDA
My heart stops anytime I hear pet food recall news and, sadly, it doesn't seem like this issue will be fixed anytime soon. Luckily, North's brand has never been recalled but I now know what to do if I've got any suspicions.
If you think something is wrong with your furry friend's food – problems, adverse reactions, infestations, etc.
Major Pet Food Recall – Is Your Brand One of Them?
I'm kind of a stickler about pet food. North eats pretty well, and I personally wouldn't have it any other way. So if the last pet food scare had you up in arms, then you should take notice to this news.
Rachael Ray Rolls Out a Line of Pet Food
Since Rachael Ray is a big fan of making her own fresh food to feed her baby Isaboo and features pet friendly recipes in her magazine and on her website, I guess it was only a matter of time before she took the plunge into the pet food business!
Dubbed Nutrish, her specialty line of dog food is filled with 100 percent natural ingredients like her famous EVOO, real beef, chicken, veggies, oatmeal, vitamin E, calcium, and absolutely no byproducts. And what's better, a portion of the proceeds go to Rachael's Rescue, a nonprofit organization she founded to help animals in need.
Pet Food Recall: Timberwolf Organics
If your pup dines on Timberwolf Organics brand dog food, then sit up and take note! Timberwolf has voluntarily recalled two formulas from their line of pet food due to customers reporting instances of dogs vomiting, diarrhea, and refusing to eat.

Dakota Bison: best by date of February 12, 2009
Ocean Blue: best by date of February 20, 2009
Ocean Blue: best by date of March 8, 2009
If you have either of these affected formulas with the dates noted as above, you can simply take the bags back to the retailer you purchased them from for a refund or a store credit.

The Scoop: First H1N1 Cat Case Confirmed by AVMA
Following last week's case in Oregon where vets confirmed the first H1N1 transmission between a human and a pet ferret, the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) has confirmed that a 13-year-old, indoor-only cat in Iowa in fact has swine flu.
While it's uncommon for flu viruses (like the H3N8 for dogs) to jump between species, doctors at Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center at Iowa State University's College of Veterinary Medicine performed two sets of tests to find the feline was in fact infected. According to her owners, they had been sick with flu-like symptoms before noticing the cat was ill and, until recently, there was no reason to think cats could catch the 2009 swine flu.
