Just saw this on Facebook and wanted to spread the word:

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Target is recalling dog treats due to a risk of salmonella contamination.
Boots & Barkley American Beef Bully Sticks were voluntarily recalled by Kasel Associated Industries of Denver. The product was sold at Target stores between April and September.
The six-count, five-inch dog treats are packaged in a clear bag marked with bar code number 647263899189.
Officials say they may be contaminated with salmonella, which can sicken animals and put humans at risk from handling the product.


People who have handled the dog treats should watch for symptoms, which include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. For pets, symptoms include lethargy, diarrhea, fever and vomiting. Some pets will only have decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain.

No illnesses have been reported in animals or humans due to the dog treats.

If anything good were to come out of Abby being sick, I would say it would be that (because of her) I don't buy treats from the store any more. I started to dehydrate my own meats and fruit for her and Roxy & Otis love them just as much as the sweetie head does.

Good lord! It seems every day there's a new dog food/treat recall! These manufacturers need to get it together!
