And, our kudos to Seattle Dogspot,
who did some sleuthing and discovered something quite odd about this
recall. Namely, that "Iams made no mention of the recall on its
website."
The Dogspot writer then posted a message on the Iams Facebook page, asking if it was going to post info about the recall on its website (the posting, you should know, first appeared on the PetSmart corporate website).
Dogspot received this response:
"Robert, thanks for your post. We've requested retailers to remove a few lots of Shakeables treats from their shelves because they have the potential to get moldy. Clearly, these do not meet our quality standards. We consulted with the FDA before we took any action and have followed their guidance on proper notification procedures. If you have more questions, please give us a call at 1-877-894-4458. Janet"
All well and good, but there's still nothing about the recall on the Iams site.
