I almost bought some at Petco but decided on another brand. Thanks for the update
My thoughts exactly ~ :thumbsup:I think NB is pretty safe with their new standards for safety checks. Something can get by any checks and balances sometimes. If we desert all dog foods that have been recalled there will be no dog food left out there. I think NB should be commended for taking action even though the samples didn't show contamination.
I will NEVER EVER EVER buy NB again...after we lost our sweet Echo in the pet food recall of 2007 (she was eating the venison sweet potato formula). To again have a recall just makes me shudder...I don't care what 'spin' the company says (I remember when the recalls started and I checked their site and they reassured all us NB feeders that theirs wasn't on the recall list...which is did turn out to be just a couple of weeks later...I keep thinking 'what if' we had stopped feeding Echo 2 weeks earlier when I first checked and was made by them to feel safe and confident in the product, would she still be alive...it haunts me :smcryI don't buy any food that has a history of recalls and Natural Balance is one of them.
Thank you very much for posting this information!
I feed Libby NB Original Ultra bite size with chicken, brown rice, lamb...and fresh potatoes.
I didn't see this on the recall list thank goodness!
She's almost out and I was going to the store tomorrow, for a new bag.
I didn't know that NB had any history of recalls:w00t:
This really upsets me so I think it's time to switch. Can anyone recommend a better dry food for her?
Thanks again!

Our precious pups are just to important to take that risk with when there are so many other good formulas out there without such a history.
