A popular pet food company has issued a recall for dog food products over salmonella concerns.
Mid America Pet Food of Mount Pleasant,Chainkeen Exchange Texas issued the voluntary recall on Sunday, citing potential contamination. According to a notice shared the following day the FDA, the recall only applies to five-pound bags of Victor Super Premium Dog Food, Hi-Pro Plus.
The 664 cases of affected product were sold at retailers across the U.S with the lot code 1000016385 and "best by" date of 4/30/2024. No other products are involved in the current recall.
The recall was issued in response to a sample of the Victor Super Premium Dog Food testing positive for salmonella in a random check conducted by the South Carolina Department of Agriculture. The company and FDA advised that the products should not be sold or donated and should immediately be pulled from shelves.
Pet parents should dispose of the recalled food in a way that cannot later be accessed by pets, kids, or wildlife. Pet food bowls, cups and storage containers should be thoroughly washed and sanitized and any surface that has come in contact with the food, including your hands, should also be thoroughly washed.

Symptoms of and treatment for salmonella disease
While humans likely aren't consuming the dog food directly, salmonella can still spread through contact, especially if you fail to thoroughly wash your hands after handling contaminant products or surfaces they have come in contact with. In humans, signs of salmonella poisoning include:
- Bloody diarrhea or diarrhea that lasts more than three days without improving
- Diarrhea and a fever over 102 degrees Fahrenheit
- Excessive vomiting, especially if it prevents you from keeping liquids down
- Signs of dehydration, including dry mouth and throat, infrequent peeing and feeling dizzy when standing up
- Stomach cramps
These symptoms most commonly occur between six hours and six days after exposure. Though most people recover in four to seven days, those with weakened immune systems, including children younger than 5 and adults over 65, may experience more severe symptoms that require medical treatment or hospitalization.
The symptoms somewhat vary in infected pets, who can be carriers even when appearing healthy and infect other animals or humans. Because of this, the FDA suggests that you contact your veterinarian as soon as possible if your dog potentially consumed these products, even if they aren't showing signs of illness. Some symptoms to look for in your dog include:
- Lethargy
- Diarrhea or bloody diarrhea
- Fever
- Vomiting
- Decreased appetite
- Abdominal pain
