My dog was eating a pedigree brand dog food that was recalled.?
- admin in category: dog natural food
It was recalled due to Salmonella contamination. What symptoms should I be watching for? He looks like he lost some weight, Should I take him to the vet?
They are so expensive, I hate to run if nothing is wrong. He is eating and playing just fine.

Q. What is Salmonella?
A. Salmonella is a gram-negative, rod-shaped bacilli that can cause diarrheal illness in humans. They are microscopic living creatures that pass from the feces of people or animals to other people or other animals.
The Salmonella family includes over 2,300 serotypes of bacteria which are one-celled organisms too small to be seen without a microscope. Two types, Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium are the most common in the United States and account for half of all human infections. Strains that cause no symptoms in animals can make people sick, and vice versa. If present in food, it does not usually affect the taste, smell, or appearance of the food. The bacteria live in the intestinal tracts of infected animals and humans.
Salmonella bacteria have been known to cause illness for over 100 years. They were discovered by an American scientist, Dr. Daniel E. Salmon.

If he’s like throwing up and having diarrhea, it’s possible. You may still want to take him to the vet, though.

if he starts looking bad or vomiting take him… if not i wouldn’t worry about it.

just call your vet and see if there is something that you should be looking for.. if he is actually acting sick then you should probably just take him
